This site is being used by criminals to get personal information about people, mainly SS#'s, to steal money using identity theft. I just got a notice from the IRS about this. Just do a search for your name and zip code. If you have moved recently, then try a past zip code. If you find your name, follow these instructions to take it off.

1. Make a note of the zip code associated with your record
2. Click on the "FAQ" button (Frequently asked Questions)
3. Click on the "Privacy Statement" button to "opt out" your data
from the database
4. Click on the "Opt Out Option" link
5. An input screen will pop up - fill in your first and last name, DOB
and
the zip code from the initial record. Then click on the "remove from
the
database" button and your data will be removed from the database.
After a few minutes, search for your name again, to make sure it was
removed.

I was on there, and am NOT happy about it! Thanks for the heads up!

I'd give this info out to everyone you know, especially your relatives.

Your ss# is not included how are they obtaining that information?

[Greenhead22]

By using your name, DOB, and Place of residence, for a fee of around $30 they can find out all the personal info they want about you, especially your SS#. I did a search on another site of myself, and you wouldn't believe all the info a person can find out about me for $100.

They have to had access to drivers license. I say this as I went to site typed in my last name and zip code and my birthday popped up with the incorrect year of birth. Now 14 years ago when I moved back here I swapped my Texas D/L for Ms. license. Tx. does not use SS# and the 9 digit # on my Tx license was used for my SS#, plus they made a mistake on the year of birth. I didn't catch it for a couple years and when i renewed my D/L I asked the officer and at that time they required ss#. I showed her my ss card and she corrected. She would not correct the year of birth without seeing my birth certificate. I have never corrected it as it seemed insignificant. That is the only document I have with that date on it. Hunting license everything else I have has correct date. [img]images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]

From what I was told, if you vote on a regular basis or own a vehicle/home, then you will probably be on that list.
