From a technical perspective, it will work.

If you're concerned about it looking suspicious, you can just use a fake email address.

Yes I've used Blockchain. So far so good. I'd recommend using Tor with it tho, for extra security.

At what point does this begin to look suspicious?  Why not just purcahse the bitcoins off of TOR to make it look like a legit use, then transfer to an instawallet via TOR/launder with bitcoinfog.  It just seems that if you have to show up in person to buy something completely legal, it should have the least sketch factor attached to it.

I've bought bitcoins of off bit instant while connecting through tor and using a tormail address.  Worked fine for me just make sure that the info you gave bit instant matches up with the info you use for the zip zap payment.

Ok so I have created a Blockchain.  Through blockchain, I hit the "Cash Deposit" button on the right, and a Bitinstant window poped up. I filled out the amount that I wanted to deposit, name and birthdate. Next it gave me an option of private or non-private sending it through a shared wallet etc. I then went into ZIPZAP through the process and filled out the information there. Finished by printing the slip for deposit.

TODAY: I tried doing the same thing but I am not able to make a "Cash Deposit" through Blockchain? I don't know why and its pretty frustrating, because the deposite I was going to make yesterday, I feel like I messed up so I am trying to go through the process again, but it keeps saying after I fill the bitinstant page out that there is an "Invalid Exchange" why is this??
