using a return address

**king6** · 12-10-2006, 01:09 PM

I have an overseas source, and he says that he usually does not use a return address for obvious reasons. He says that he can use one but it would be ficticious. I have heard that packages w/o a return address are more susceptible to inspections. Do you think I should have him use a fake return addy to be safe?

yeah i would go with a fake return addy...no return addy either will throw up a red flag and something bad will most likely happen..

That is my thoughts. I know they sometimes run the return addy, and if it comes up fake they will inspect. But I don't think they run every return addy, and they can't tell its fake just by looking at it. But if there is no return addy then that draws more attention.

How do you think they run a foreign country street addresses to see if it comes up fake? Some of the BS you guys think up is funny. Most of you guys make yourself worry and all this drama over nothing
