Opening a PO Box with a fake ID for a drop?

So I'm going to be ordering a lot of stuff that I cannot ship to my house, and I do not want to open a PO box in my real name incase it were to get busted, (I'm ordering far far far more than a personal amount) and get raided or a CD on my real name.

I called the post office and they said my "License" and Lease agreement would work to give me a PO box. I was planning on opening one up with the fake ID and letting the packages sit in my box for about a week or so at a time to avoid a surprise raid and then opening it in a public area, grabbing the contents and dumping the box to avoid a CD. So far it sounds like a good idea to me can anyone try and poke holes in this?

A few things: They're not going to be verifying if I actually live in my "address" they just want proof of residency which my lease agreement and ID can provide.

LE isn't going to sit on a PO box for weeks on a time and I would go in late at night to get it, and dump the box quickly.

The USPS takes postal fraud really seriously, and having a PO box in a fake name could potentially be found out by them without any sort of drug investigation. That alone is 5 years in Federal prison, and will also ruin any sort of defense you could have had if the PO box was in your name.

What if LE sees you go in there to grab it on the cameras, now they have what you look like. There's no way to get into a PO box that isn't yours unless you either pick it (Felony) or have a key. They'll know whoever is picking up the packs has knowledge of their contents.

What's more likely in a LE investigation is them leaving a "sorry we missed you!" note in there. There's legitimate reasons for them to leave one in there, and if one of your packs is too large for the PO box, and it's being held behind the counter, are you just gonna let it get RTS and potentially launch an investigation against you?

If you want a PO box to use, just have it in your own name, and publicize the fact that it's your PO box online.

Go ahead and try it. Let us know how your plan worked.

They only thing I can see that will help you is buy a RF/GPS detector. They are like $500 but that way you can scan your packages that you let "cool off" to avoid a potential bug. That's the last resort LE can use if you don't pick up soon enough for them to profile you

If you ever happen to get a CD, your fucked in a trial with you rolling up to a P.O box not in your actual name with a package of drugs in it. A real PO box under your REAL name would actually work alot better than a fake, unless you pay runners to go grab your packs i never understood why people do this

You're better off using your real name and address for the sake of plausible deniability.

You could use a virtual mailbox to proxy your order.
