amazon wishlists

[Unique_kissX]

Hi everyone i know this has been asked before but there are conflicting answers and advice from different people, when i used to cam i had a wish list on amazon , but im a bit worried about what im hearing of members finding out your real address and name, does anyone have one and not had a problem thank you all xxx

Either accept gift cards only, or get a PO box/UPS box.

@SaffronBurke is right on the money.

Even if you get a PO box, you could still have your location exposed. Some fans are real fucking creepy.

Amazon Prime showing hidden address with track package

There have been cases where Amazon has given out information about how giftcards have been used.

Also don't forget to report them as earnings.

People can find out your address through Amazon wishlist, and people will also try to scam you through it. Don't send the promised content until you get the stuff, that kind of thing.

Thankyou all so much for your replies, I won't be doing that then!!! Wish I knew this years ago when I had one!!! Xx

I was looking at this just now and it seems that most of the items I wanted to add, they will not allow me to place on the public wishlist anyway. So, I would second the gift cards provided that you could be assured the tracking will not be a problem.

I recently was scammed through the usage of Amazon wish list. Be very careful.
Amazon is so dumb if someone adds a bunch of things to their cart from your cart it will say it was purchased when it wasn't. Some guy added 6k worth of stuff to their cart from my wishlist and was shown as purchased. I contacted Amazon support and they confirmed that it was just reserved not purchased.

a different email address used only for this specific activity might be useful.
Anyway... I have to agree with @JigglesJane

tho "fans" who dig into "finding more" are named "stalkers" this days and cyberbullying is a blooming flower.
Unfortunately there's no 3rd party service to act like a middleman and offer privacy and security in camming industry related to this particular issue.

If you have to ship internationally from amazon then (at least here anyway) you have to have your legal name on the delivery which amazon shows to anyone buying, they dont even have to make the purchase, just add it to the cart and go through the checkout process, one of the reasons I closed down my wishlist tbh.

I use a mail-forwarding website called virtualpostmail to receive amazon packages and gifts. I have the PO Box set to another state (they have a list of states you can choose from so just pick one relatively near you), and whatever gets sent to that location gets forwarded to my actual address through the company.

There ARE mail-forwarding services, many models have used them successfully.

Can you expand more on this? Source?

One example, RiceGum on youtube got busted for fake gift card giveaways. At the time, some people claimed they called amazon and got 'proof' that the cards had been used by RiceGum. Not just that the gift cards had been used before the videos went up, but other info that proved it was RiceGum.

Honestly don't know how much of that internet drama was true. But Security is often only as secure as the people who work there.
