Preventing Identity Theft using a Private Address

Virtual Office Service, Parramatta > Preventing Identity Theft using a Private Address

Secure Your Mail to Prevent Identity Theft

Protect your privacy. Prevent identify theft. Get a convenient, private personal mailing address. Keep your real residential address confidential.

Most identity theft begins with mail theft from unsecured letterboxes. Criminals collect enough information – bank account numbers, utility bills, etc – to be able to convince companies that they are you.  Often a financial disaster, it can take many months or even years to re-establish your real identity.  There’s one simple solution – let us give you an alternative mailing address and we will securely receive your mail and parcels.

Considering a PO Box? Don’t! The advantages of our Private Mailing Address Service over a PO Box are significant:  the legitimacy of a real street address, no need to be home to receive courier deliveries and, best of all, no long post office queues to retrieve your oversized items.

A personal private address gives you peace of mind.  No worrying about stolen mail or identify theft and parcel collection is at your convenience.
