USPS Informed Delivery

United States Post Service has a service: Informed Delivery.

Sign up and you can check and see what will be delivered to your house in today's mail. Not just what but a gray scale image of the letters and/or packages. Up to 10.
 Convenience. We now know if a cheque is on the way, our grand kids sent a Easter card, any and all to be dropped in the mail box later today.

 Sign up, supply a username and strong passphrase/password, and marvel at modern convenience.

 BUT be aware the security questions to verify your identity are all easily found or known it you research or know the victim. Instead of cards from grand kids, think home prescription delivery, broker statements. Now the criminals can sit at their house and monitor postal mail to be delivered to your house.
 AND now USPS has a record of mail to addressees.
 AND  a daily notice is sent via email/epostcard that any/everyone can read if they are motivated and capable.
