To be precise its $4700 i owe. | If you used legit name, then they can use that name to get your address from credit reference agency.
Those debt collectors wotn have trouble finding you even if address was rented.
Credit reference agencies know how many bank CURRENT accounts you have (but not savings), which names you used and which addresses you used !
All that data is available to them.
Its not worth it, if they find out you have been using someone elses address you will be in even more crap. The person whose house you rented iwll get threatening letters to start off with (paypal/ebay tactic as well as amazon) then that person will just forward all your info to amazon if they know it (thats if you told them, otherwise they will probably just call cops because you used their address to get them in trouble, i know i would).
I once owed ebay £12 final value fees and they sent a threatening letter about 60-100 days later (dont remember exactly how long) which said they will send debt collectors if i dont pay it.
I SH*T you not, ask anybody else, for just £12 they will still go after you !
I think legally they have to wait a certain time (i think its 60 days in uk) before they can go after you.
