A lot of the info on me was wrong.  For instance, I have not lived in that house for ten years.  Hobbies and interests were pretty much wrong.

So I typed in names and stuff, but how do you find interests and hobbies? What they did know was pretty creepy... But my name didn't come up at all ;D

They have my name, address, religion, and gender right, but not much else. My hobbies are all wrong, and I don't own a home.

I was googling someone and came across this site.  www.spokeo.com.
lol, I tried my name and they said I live in Flushing NY and I'm on my 30s. Man this website sure knows too much. ;)

Thanks, dreamyxo, for sharing this with us.  My daughter has her own band and travels the world, so I typed in her name and couldn't believe what all came up.  They even had a picture of our house (I guess it's the one from Google), but I wasn't expecting that!  It said there are 6 people in our household, which did apply before they all married and left home.  They left out my oldest daughter and listed my husband twice.  A very interesting site.

Yes the pictures are crazy that's part of the reason I don't post pics of myself online.

lol Yeah not very accurate at all.

My sister looks up people's criminal records online - cause almost everyone has at least a speeding ticket and that's a jumping off point to finding out and knowing other info.

This look like a good site catered to sleuthers. It also holds many past and present addresses as well.  :o I would hate to think it’s a dangerous idea for stalkers, rapists, psychopaths, and the like to access this site. :confused1: >:( If anybody wish to dig more info, they need to $$pay$$ for membership.

It doesn't know anything at all about me, which I find slightly curious.  I do try to keep myself off the grid (but not in any paranoid manner) but there are many public records that should be readily available.
There are only 10 types of people in the world:  those who understand binary, and those who don't.

Okay. I just moved from a whole another place and country and this site already has my current address. That is creepy and if someone is willing to pay for, I suppose they will release a lot more information. That's just creepy!

What? and what's more creepy is that I just change my number not so long ago, they already have it. What is this?

And a phone number I've used a while ago is on there too. I didn't register anything what so ever with that old number. I just used it for a while. THis site need to go down, seriously.
