How do you stop abusive/annoying mail being sent to you?

[Darth_Kitten]

Problem is my bio dad got my OLD address and sends a lot of weird mail/postcards to me. Since I am still forwarding my mail from my old address, stuff he sends to my old address comes to my new.

Thing is, I don't want this shit. In about a month the mail he sends will no longer be forwarded to me and will probably still go to my old place. (I only paid for mail to be forwarded to 6 months)

Does this mean this stops becoming MY problem, and the person's at my old place? My bio dad sends this mail usually without a return address (though he slipped up a few times and actually sent it)
I feel sorry for the new person at my old address.

Anything I should/can do? :shrug:

1. if you write UNK on the piece of mail and leave it for the postman

it will get returned as unknown, return to sender. You could try that if you want to send that message. Other than that, just tell the people at the old address to trash those and you're sorry for the hassle :P

2. thing is, in about a month, if they still come......

they will go to my old place, but he doesn't put return address on what he sends.

:(

3. hmm, I don't know then

:shrug: sounds like in a month it will be somebody else's problem

4. I just want it stopped.......

I'm even sending him a note: This person moved! Stop sending!!

I used to be indifferent to this guy, but he's really pissing me off. Just leave me alone!

5. I have the shredder near the back door

I wouldn't open it or look at it. I'd stick it in the shredder.

The people at the old place have two choices - toss it or put it in the box for the post office to toss since there's no return address.
