Questions regarding anonymity (phone, payment, package) - flintlock0 - Aug 15, 2018
Hello HF!
This is my first post here.
I have some question regarding maintaining anonymity:
1. What are some of the best ways to obtain a phone number to be used for things like 2FA for the online identities that I hope to remain anonymous? A burner phone with prepaid card (purchased with cash) seems like an option, but the cell signal is still easily traceable, right? What about internet phone numbers? Where and how can I get one?
2. Prepaid credit card purchased with cash seems like an easy way to make anonymous online payment, but will they be traceable to the store I purchase it from? Will there be a sales record containing the credit card number? If so, there is still a good chance that it will be deanonymized right? What are some alternatives for anonymous payment online? How do I convert cash to bitcoins for example?
3. How do I receive physical packages anonymously?
Thanks!
