Best Answer

If you are doing it with the intention to defraud or mislead theaddressee or the sender, then yes, it is illegal.

You may have post delivered to any address, provided you have permission from the owner of the address. Many young people today have their own addresses, but still have personal letters such as banking statements sent to their parents address for extra security.


You can write on the return address "C/O", next to the receiver name - which means "care of".

For example:

Joe Johnson (C/O Jackie Bean)

12345 West Road

London

LE9 1JN


This means that the letter is addressed to you (Joe Johnson) but is in the care ofyourfriend, Jackie Bean. You don't have to use C/O, but it will help the sender understand that it is not your address (ie - if the sender is abailiffdemanding debt repayments, they will not raid you friends house if they know it is not your property).


It is, however, illegal to open mail that is notintendedfor you. Whether it was posted to you by accident or not.

Not necessarily, but if they find out you can possibly be sued and your employer won't appreciate it either.
