The information listed for me was completely off base. But it did have my old address listed on that site, so I went through the process to delete it.

HOWEVER.....

I find it odd that technically all you need is a working email address to remove anyone's information. I have a feeling that this site is just working to collect email addresses. If you go to remove your info, create a gmail address or something that you will never use, because I have a feeling the email address used to remove people is going to get BLASTED with spam.

I had fun looking at friends, family and government officials..... My house was valued at 1 million, off a little!

They had my parent's listed at both their current address and their old address (which they moved out of nearly three years ago). They also listed our hold house as being valued higher than their current house, even though their current house was over $100,000 more than what they sold their old house for. They also listen that I'm in my 50's and my sister is in her 40's (we're 25 and 22 respectively). They had my parent's ages correct though.

It came up with an old PO box that I had. At least the post office building is holding it's value.

They have 2 of my apartments from my college days in Columbus and the address where I grew up listed. Also I make $197,000 a year supposedly. I think there is something wrong with my direct deposit account, because I'm not seeing all of that.

I put in my number, and apparently my initials are W.S., I am in my mid-40s, married, and living in Mentor-on-the-Lake.

It is a mobile phone though. They nailed that part of the profile.

They had the right address, but apparently my 23 year old sister is a 50-year-old married man.

It listed my parents' house for me. Other than that, the info was WAY off.

The name and phone numbers are correct. Everything else isn't close at all.

I didn't show up in the name search, but I did when I typed in my E-mail address. It was about half right, and it listed my parents house which is close enough in my book. I am in a relationship though according to that, which makes me feel bad because I have really been cheating on her, whoever she is. Also it only had my sister, missing 3 siblings. Her age was right though. It seems like I could do better at this with a phone book and facebook account though.
