| IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Please Read
I received this in an e-mail today. I checked it out and it is true. You might want to check it for yourself and if you are listed, have your information removed. I checked this out and it’s true… This site will show your information, name, address and picture of your home. Not all of our info was accurate, but it's pretty close. Check out the website -- People Search | White Pages | Phone Book | FREE! - it's kind of creepy. It has some of your personal info, even pictures of your house! You can have your info removed for free by clicking on the "Privacy" link at the bottom of their home page. |

It claims my house is worth 1M+, but we have no central heating (in New England). LOL! I don't know where they get their information, but I wouldn't trust it if I was trying to spy on someone.

Both hubby and I were listed, but alot of the info was wrong. For him they didn't know if there was CHA on the house, but on mine it said there was CHA, uh, we live in the same house, so if they have the info for one they should have for the other it seems since they do have us married to each other, LOL. My education was wrong, my ocupation was wrong, they have 5-7 people living here, LOL, there are 3 of us, never have that many people lived here. For the picture of the house they had some trees, LOL. Most everything of hubby's was "unknown" and what they did know, his zodiac sign, was wrong. They had the same picture of trees for the house picture for him.

I would be extremely careful with this one, for me and I did it for some family members it seems like its old and not updated and also alot of the information is wrong where or how they got what they got I do not know .The picture of my home is correct but I have seen that before. However they do not have me as going to college yet they have my husband going which he did not. Alot of the homes are listed at 1 million plus my sign is wrong I am a taurus. Again I would not worry too much about this . For the record my dad nor my 3 brothers did not show up so who knows how they decide whom they carry in their files or data. Peace. Catherine

I agree that most of the info is incorrect. It states that I am asian. I believe the site assumed this because my married name is japanese, although I am caucasian. The displayed picture is indeed old...at least 4 yrs. It shows our house prior to re-landscaping. If you read under Privacy, the site states it "aggregates publicly available information from phone books, social networks, marketing surveys, real estate listings, business websites, and other public sources. Does not originate data or publish user-generated content like Facebook or MySpace. Rather, indexes third-party data in ways similar to Google or Bing. Does not control or maintain any aggregated third-party data, and therefore cannot guarantee its accuracy or currentness. Does not publish any information for children under 18". I would be careful trying to delete your information as the site asks for an email address. This could be opening another can of worms for spam, etc. I am just going to ignore it... |

I agree I will just ignore it because so much is wrong but I will admit you never know it can be scary but again we are talking about the internet here and you just never ever know or never ever can be so safe with your personal information listed anywhere on the internet. Peace. Catherine

When I posted this, I didn't expect it to turn into a comedy. But some of those errors sure are funny. There were a lot of errors on mine too. I did request that mine be deleted and it has. Since we're not tied to that site with any e-mail, I used the e-mail that I use for all my junk mail.

This is a crazy website! None of my family is listed except my son and it's TOTALLY wrong! It shows him as a parent (he's married with no children), it shows he owns his home (he rents right now) and that his house is worth over a quarter of a million dollars. And that he's a laborer, tradesman (he's in law enforcement!)

no scarier that the phone book. I really don't find this disturbing. I am not trying to hide from people.

It shows my house as being 1 million+ and only do I wish it was worth just half that much. But it also said a lower class neighborhood. So if a million + is lower class, what would high class be? Most of the rest of my info was all wrong too. I was looking up lots of people I know just to see what would come up. When I looked up my ex it said he was of a different race. WHAT. It's not as if he has a common name to be confused with someone else.

My name (both maiden and married) doesn't come up. Doesn't look like this site is really reliable.
