Think about whom might be looking for you or trying to stalk you. Only a federal agency or high-level expensive private investigator is going to find you if you live under a Business Name and then only if you are wanted for something serious. When someone looks for a person, they look for the person. They don’t look for businesses. They could NOT find you even if they did look for a business. They wouldn’t know what business to look for or where to look for that business.
It is best if you put your house in the name of one business and put the car in the name of another business. Finally, put everything else in the name of a third business. This way none of your information or your assets are crossed or linked in any way.
NEVER use the address where you live as the address for your car registration. Rent a Private Mailbox from UPS -or some other provider and use the street address of the place you rented the box from as your car registration address. This way if someone checks on your car tags, they will never be able to find where you live. All they will find is a Business Name and the address of your Private Mail Service that will only reveal the address you gave when you opened the Private Mailbox and NOT your actual living address.
IMPORTANT TIP: You might want to open your Private Mailbox or P O Box with your current home address, BEFORE you move and vanish. From 2010, these mailbox providers are required by federal law to get your personal information to rent you a box. They now WILL NOT rent a box to you unless your Driver’s License or other valid ID has the same address as you are providing for your home address. In other words, the address on your driver’s license or other identification you provide (you must provide two forms) MUST match the address you give as your home address. It won’t matter if you use your old home address as you just left it behind and it is easier to provide this correct (but soon to be invalid or already invalid information). You can always change your address later or don’t bother to do so. If someone could get the address you used to rent the Private Mailbox, all they would have is the address of where you used to live. You might want to keep one form of picture ID in your old address for future use. Student ID’s are the easiest to use for that purpose.
Many people move and forget to update the address on their Driver’s License and these people cannot rent a Private Mailbox until the Address on their identification matches the living address provided. Of course, they could just use the old address on their driver’s license. You can rent your new mailbox in a new Business Name but you need to make sure your personal information matches. It is much easier done using your OLD identity and address and before you vanish. The information you provide will become worthless to anyone trying to track you because it is no longer valid information as soon as you move.
Use a different Business Name to have your utilities hooked up. Not required but that’s how you are most anonymous. You can get a business EIN number free so that is the smart way to go. A utility company might do a credit check if you use your Given Name so use a Business Name and give them an EIN instead. If you don’t pay the bill you can just start a new Business Name and get it hooked up again. Just give new information and say you just moved in. If a copy of the lease is needed, you can buy a lease form at any Office Depot or Office Max and create a fake lease.
You can live and work under a Business Name. If you do, the only thing you won’t have is a driver’s license under your Business Name but you could get an International driver’s license (see that section). Since your driver’s license is in your Given Name, your task in life is to NOT be pulled over by the police so drive responsively and that won’t happen. You would want to change your driver’s license address to an address you don’t live at and this could be a private mail service. If you were to get a citation, the public record would not show the address you live at and would show your business address, which is not traceable to your real location. Use turn signals all the time and no rolling stops at stop signs. This is how everyone should drive! You would make sure the taxes on the car are paid every year and you keep your vehicle registration and insurance current.
A Business Name can take you anywhere you want to go anonymously and can keep you anonymous for life. However, if needed for some reason, you can legally continue to create more new businesses and new identities for the rest of your life. It’s easy to do. Driving is your only worry so drive defensively and you won’t have any problem or use your real identity driver’s license for driving. Just don’t get pulled over and you will never have to show it. When you put things in the name of a business, they may ask you for the name of a contact person. Just make up any name you want to use in that case but is important you keep good records and notes. Record all names, Business Names and Employer Identification Numbers you use, especially for utilities and such. The reason for this is because you may want to make changes to the account at some point and you can’t make changes or cancel service if you don’t know the correct information. If you have cable TV in a Business Name and you now want to add HBO to the account, you must have the correct information to make those changes.
Also, remember you don’t even need an EIN to buy a house or a car in your Business Name. They won’t ask for anything except the name of the company. You will need an EIN to get the water, gas, electricity, etc., turned on.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I can’t stress this enough! You don’t need a new driver’s license or a social security number to live anonymously. This is where so many identity changers get into trouble by doing something unlawful to get a driver’s license in a different name or Social Security Card in a different name and number. You can safely drive without a license or use your real license and drive carefully. You can use an Employer Identification Number instead of a social security number to make money. If you must work for a company, you can try to have them hire your business instead of hiring you personally. You could try telling them a psycho has terrorized you and he has been finding you by your social security number. You ask if they could hire you by hiring your company and making your paychecks out to your company that way you could use your EIN rather than your SSN. You could give your EIN, as a SSN as it does have the same number of digits … just be sure you get the dashes in the right places but I don’t recommend you do that.
If you just need to hide money or assets from someone, this would be simple to do. Just start a business at a mailbox rental address. Buy houses and cars in the name of the business. Start a bank account in the name of the business and put your money in the business account. You now have everything in your Business Name and not in your Given Name.
Get yourself an extra prepaid anonymous cell phone. Use this extra cell phone only for your home. In other words, give this number to the utility companies when you have your utilities hooked up. With prepaid minutes, you don’t have a monthly charge so you will always have this phone when you need it. You could also use it to have pizza delivered etc. Now you have an anonymous phone not linked to anything. Don’t call anyone from your old life with this phone.
Get another prepaid phone you can use to carry with you in your new life. Use it as your business phone and daily use phone. Don’t call anyone from your old life with this phone.
You can also buy a MagicJack for about $60 which is available at Wally Mart, drugstores, and online too. You can make anonymous phone calls anywhere there is Internet service with this small device. A MagicJack works online and anywhere in the world! You simply plug it into a USB port on any computer with Internet access and then you can use a headset to make phone calls from that computer. You can plug a regular phone into the MagicJack and use the phone to make phone calls or receive phone calls. If your MagicJack isn’t plugged into a computer, it cannot be traced and you still receive any voice messages by email. Forward the messages saved to your MagicJack phone number to an email address of your choosing which you can access anonymously by means of the Internet.
NOTE: You can get any prefix you want with a MagicJack and you don’t have to have it plugged into a computer to use it as a message phone number. You can give a MagicJack phone number to utility companies, etc. and they will just leave you a message. You can then access your messages anonymously by means of the Internet and return calls from your prepaid phone or from another MagicJack. You could plug the MagicJack into your laptop computer while at a coffee shop which has free WIFI. You make your return calls over the Internet while you are at the coffee shop with a headset. MagicJack minutes are unlimited, nationwide within the USA and can call the USA from ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD where you can get Internet access. You get one year of service with your $40 purchase and extra years (not months but years!) are $30 a year. The MagicJack is a marvelous and inexpensive anonymous communication choice that can work for you ANYWHERE!
If the Authorities are NOT seeking to find you, it would probably be safe to use a MagicJack from your home. You simply plug a phone into it and use your MagicJack like any phone service. Just to be safe, Register your
MagicJack in your Business Name but better yet would be to register to a made-up name. Nobody’s going to verify what name a MagicJack is registered to or what address it’s registered to. You don’ have to register it to any address. I use my given first name twice and register to, David, David as if I accidentally typed my first name where the last name should have been. You could be Jane, Jane … or Ralph, Ralph.
NOTE: Just introduced in July 2013 is the new MagicJack Plus and more recently in 2014, the MagicJack Go. These do the same as the regular MagicJack except they can be used without being plugged into a USB port on a computer and offers superior voice quality. I’ve switched to these new versions and they do provide improved voice quality. It is rated as best voice quality in the VOIP (Voice Over Internet Phone) industry. That’s impressive considering it is the least expensive VOIP service in the industry!
Google Voice is a way you can get a FREE phone number just to receive messages online. You could give friends and relatives a Google Voice phone number as an emergency contact number and then call them back from a safe phone when you receive the voicemail message over the Internet. Google voice numbers are FREE ... Click below to get yours:
I’ve personally used both Google Voice phone numbers and MagicJack numbers for business and personal reasons and have remained anonymous in doing so. This is anonymous as long as FEDS aren’t looking for you. Just don’t register these types of phone service in your Given Name or provide your real address or other real information about yourself. You can make up any information you like but keep records of the information you used to open the account. You need the information so you can make changes to your service if needed or make a payment to continue service.
NOTE: You can use a MagicJack from anywhere in the world to call the United States free over the Internet. This is convenient when you are traveling and have Internet access available. You can send a MagicJack to anyone anywhere in the world and they can use it to call the United States free over the Internet. MagicJack to MagicJack phone calls are free because they are over the internet. Of course, an internet connection is required.
You can order MagicJack’s here:
NOTE: If you do have someone stalking you or trying to find you, be careful where you use your MagicJack. Because it works over the Internet, it can be tracked to the Internet Service Provider you use to access the Internet with to use the MagicJack. If you are using it near to your home and let’s just say that is in SW Texas, it could show the ISP is Comcast of SW Texas. You would be pinpointed to the service area of Comcast of SW Texas. Your general whereabouts could be discovered by a smart computer jock and that could make it easier to find you by cutting out the rest of the USA as areas you might be in.
Always have your information memorized and be ready to spit it out fast. Practice often!
Don’t give the wrong information to the wrong people.
Always think ahead and plan when you have to talk to someone. Be certain in your mind what information you will give to this person.
Don’t ever carry all of your information around with you if you have photo ID’s in multiple business names, etc. If you are caught with more than one driver’s license, you’ll find yourself in big trouble fast so I don’t recommend you do this.
Carrying different businesses information around with you is not suspicious at all … it only shows you are a successful businessperson who owns multiple businesses.
Don’t ever use any debit or credit cards that are under your Given Name again. If you use that card, someone may get access to your bank information and find where you are by the bank records. In fact, don’t ever use any of your real personal information for anything that can lead someone else to you. Best is to just get rid of all your past identity stuff but do keep your driver’s license. Also, keep your Social Security Card but hide it away and don’t ever carry it on your person. You might want to collect Social Security benefits one day when you reach age 62 or older.
A great prepaid debit card is the Wally Mart money card. You can buy them at any Wally Mart and the website is:
Take it from one who has used the methods in this book and knows from real life experience. The methods outlined in this book, even the ones that aren’t exactly legal are the only methods that work in modern America.
The only other identity change method that works is the classic paper trip method. It's NOT legal and it's time-consuming. I strongly suggest you DO NOT go that route. If you must have it, I’m sure you can find it online with a Google search. Again, I do not recommend you do this or do anything that is unlawful as it is RISKY. Such activities might land you in serious trouble and it’s not necessary to go there! It’s much better to become a successful business owner and live under the protective umbrella of your business.
INTERESTING NOTE: Who says you have to move within the USA? You could go to another country. I have traveled to and lived in many foreign countries while enjoying my alternative lifestyle aboard my Yacht.
INTERESTING YACHT NOTE: A federally documented boat is defined as a “Yacht”. A Yacht is documented with the US Coast Guard and NOT by one of the 50 states and the Document issued by the Coast Guard is valid in ANY state. You do not need to redocument a federally registered boat to operate it in any state, or move it to another state, or even to another country. There is no driver’s license required for a boat or a yacht in any state or country. A yacht owned by your business can go anywhere in the world without the need to redocument it. Finally, the ownership document for a yacht renews annually for FREE. You do need an address to have the renewal document mailed to each year.
When I was traveling abroad on my yacht, I had the renewal document sent to my parent’s address and they sent it to me wherever in the world I was. I’ve also used mail forwarding from a Private Mail Service to receive the renewal document.
