    PO Boxes...how safe are they really???

    Well, i will be ordering my "package" internationally. I was wondering how important a PO box really is. It seems to me that it really wouldnt be any safer than sending it to my home. If the cops do decide to come after that order and ME, wouldnt they still be able to do that even if i had a PO box. What is the extra security?

    around me they cost about $60 for two or three months, and thats usually the minimum period allowed to rent.

    hope that helps.

    bro, you could always open a po box w/ fake id and/or a company name, that would definately give you another level of security.

    I just went to the post office and told them I needed a po box for my business mailings, they never asked for id so I just set it up Check to see if they need any company id to open a pobox for a company - all they cared about is how I was going to pay for the rental of the pobox, cash of course. Also when you go to visit the poffice, be sure to look the part, I went wearing dress clothes sounds silly but appearances and first impression to people makes a huge difference also be really casual about it , like you only need it for a few months or something and ask about other options like mail forwarding for example.

    Well just becareful if you're in a metropolitain area where MANY people have used your PO Box before you. I'm glad that I never had any AS sent to my PO box because it had previously been flagged for illegal activity by a former user. Apparently the "flag" stays with the box even after a new person rents it.

    One of the HR people shared my full background check with me once I started working at my new job. I had asked about it because I was curious what kind of infomration typically shows up on the reports. It turns out that it mentioned that my PO box was flagged for illegal activity.

    I've never done anything illegal with my box. In fact I use it primarily for junk mail and important things that need to reach me anytime I move. So be careful.

    with any illegal substance, youd have to either possess it, or sign for it, so they are just as safe as your house.....but they are just as dangerous

    If you can get fake id use it, Im sure alot of bros out there used to use fake ids to get in to the clubs when they were young, why not use it for something a little more useful. yes.

    One more thing, unless this has changed because of privitization issues regarding post offices, any crime committed in or on the property of a US Post Office can be tried as a Federal Offense.

    Techinically, if you steal a tape dispenser, you could be tried at the federal courts.

    I don't recommend getting a PO Box with a fake ID. If you were to try to use a fake ID, you would be begging to get caught.

    Thinking the same thing. I have a PO box at a mail room. You can't have UPS or FedEX go to USPS boxes, but they will sign for my stuff at my mail room.

    As far as I know, it's easy to use a fake ID at a place like Mailboxes Etc (now called UPS Store). I don't think it's a federal offense to use a fake ID in a store like that...But, I'm not sure.
