[Help] PO box compromised.

Long story short. PO box is compromised and being watched. LE most definitely alerted USPS. Keep this in mind when answering. Here's the question: will renting a private mailbox and having to send in USPS 1583 form raise any flags that my private box should now be watched as well?

EDIT: I wish I was just being paranoid. I've already been charged and they've already gotten my box records...please answer my question. Will the usps 1583 form that is filed from the private mailbox be noticed?

just curious... how did you find out it's compromised? that's usually something you wouldn't find out until it's already too late.

rented box from UPS store last week had to show 2 valid forms of govt. ID so unless you buy fakes or get a straw renter they can find you if they want

That usps 1583 form is just a form authorizing the po box to receive mail on your behalf. Ive never heard of some central database or c onnections to burned addresses but theres a first for everything. it is a clear link between the two sot hats something to think about.

I dont have a clear answer for you other than IMO i think you should be OK. If you were forwarding mail from your old po to your new one thatd be one thing but simply filling out that form is a requirement for any PMB for them to receive mail on your behalf

I don't believe you that you know its compromised. You're likely being paranoid. If it was compromised, that's not just something they let you in on. You find it out the hard way. You probably saw a cop at the PO standing near your box and wigged out.

If you're paranoid about a drop then burn it and set up a new one at another location that isn't connected to you by name.

If you're worried they found your box, sending them a form documenting a new box sounds dumb. How do you know you are being watched?
