Quick VPN questions - knucklehead513 - 04-07-2022

I have decided to use a VPN to mask traceable info on orders done on separate accounts. My question is do I pick a random address in the city/location where the VPN is set, to fill out the billing address? Am I at risk of address fraud for doing so? What if the address belongs to someone?

I assume the accounts have been created by changing every Identifiable detail?

Pretty much, yeah. (Still working on a way to get around having to use my own phone number for the orders though)

In that case, your concern as per below Is not an Issue - you will not be Identified.

So I can go ahead and pick an address?

Absolutely.

You've created an account that has no association to you whatsoever so whatever happens with the address, will not be traced/linked to you, personally.

Update: So I tried ordering some items from Costco.com to SE with a VPN on my pc and with the billing address set there but I still got an email later saying the order was cancelled. Later I tried updating my address in my bank account to that of the VPN address but the order still got cancelled when I placed the order again on another account. Why aren't the orders going thru?

Do I also have to use a VCC/VDC with the VPN or something?

There are some details being linked to previous/current accounts.

Be sure to change "everything".

Are you not anonymizing/protecting your payment system?

In that case, which VCC/VDC's do you recommend? Should I use different/virtual phone numbers with every order, to change every traceable detail?

I wonder if you just need to give it some time after changing your billing address. I know it's instantly changed on the bank site, but maybe it takes a bit before it's ready to be used.
