THere is a nice article in 2600 (Fall 2003, I think) about how to survive without SS#s including (remarkably) how to open non-interest bearing checking accounts without one.
The only problem with using a fake ID to obtain a po box (even at a packaging service) is that its a Federal Offense - that is some high-stakes stuff. I can't be sure, for example, that the gummit isn't running checks on all who register po boxes (including those at packaging services - you have to fill out a federal form to get one). Let's say that a bogus ID was used to get one. They might just get a hair up their ass and decide to stake it out and pick you up then you land in federal court. If the AG decides you were up to something you weren't, you are screwed.
Its tough staying anonymous these days.
And not to nit pik but you do not have the
right to travel via commercial vehicles (planes, trains, rental cars) anonymously. The carrier is perfectly within its rights to require some info on who you are - its their vehicle after all.
