Can i have mail sent to myself under pretend name

The classic "pen pal" scenario!

Yes, you can have mail sent to yourself under a pretend name. Here are a few ways to do it:

  1. Use a PO Box: Rent a PO Box from the US Postal Service or a private mailbox rental company. You can then have mail sent to the PO Box under your pretend name. This way, you can keep your real name and address private.
  2. Use a Mail Forwarding Service: There are several mail forwarding services that allow you to receive mail at a virtual address. These services will then forward the mail to your real address. Some popular options include:
    • Mailbox Forwarding (mailboxforwarding.com)
    • EarthClassMail (earthclassmail.com)
    • Virtual Mailbox (virtualmailbox.com)
  3. Use a Friend or Family Member's Address: If you have a trusted friend or family member who is willing to receive mail on your behalf, you can have mail sent to their address under your pretend name. Just make sure to get their permission first!
  4. Use a Virtual Address: Some companies offer virtual addresses that you can use to receive mail. These addresses are usually associated with a physical mailbox or a mail forwarding service. Some popular options include:
    • Virtual Address (virtualaddress.com)
    • Virtual Mailbox (virtualmailbox.com)

When using any of these methods, make sure to follow the rules and regulations set by the service provider or the postal service. Additionally, be aware that some services may have limitations on the types of mail they can forward or the frequency of mail they can receive.

Remember to keep your pretend name and address private to avoid any potential issues or confusion.
