I have just discovered through a Google search that the fake email address I used actually contains a genuine URL of a random website. Should I be concerned at all? Is there anyway they can identify my PGP key or the fact that I am using PGP? Should I go create a new key with a different email address or is it all good??Thanks in advance for any help/advice!... It's why whenever I send messages I've pgp encrypted I put at the bottom the key fingerprint. Granted since I'm signing these the receiver can verify my key through that as well.I would STRONGLY advise against signing any messages you send -- this does double for messages containing incriminating information, such as an order from a vendor. The reason I say this, is that signing utterly destroys any plausible deniability that you may ever have had. Remember, once a message is signed, and the signature verifies, it cannot be disavowed, unless you try to claim that your private key and passphrase were somehow compromised. Remember, digital signatures are acceptable in court as valid. That said, there are exceptions to this rule, of course, e.g. when DPR signs one of their statements.
