I was just wondering what the best way to open a virtual office is. I know a few you can do over the internet, a few by phone. How can I open a virtual office in the most anonymous way possible?
Thanks

I looked into this after I heard pine talk about it. although he says they are more un-regulated, I found the ones around all required identification of some kind. you might be lucky and have somewhere local that does things differently. call, ask around! it's the only way to find out.

This gives you more of an advantage, but lets say the slap a tracking device on the package, what then? It just goes through the mail system and they bust you when you pick it up.

Have you ever heard of that happening? I wouldn't know I've only been using SR for around 3 months.
I guess as a precaution I would open it in the car somewhere secure until I'm down to the vacuum sealed package (I think it would be hard to slip a tracking device underneath the "skin" of the plastic without me realizing it, but I know they are getting smaller every year). and throw the box away at some random trash can.
I suppose calling around and seeing what's up would be best.

I've heard of UK police using tracking devices that alerted them when a package was opened.
This was for a large order though.
If you were serious about going down the route of virtual office you'd have to be regularly receiving normal mail and parcels to that address if you wanted any deniability. As well as a genuine reason to have opened one.
