scary website - spokeo.com
um, this website basically lists all of your info - it didn't have anything for me, but it shows a photo of our house under MH's name (well, it's actually our neighbor's house, but that's still too close for comfort).

Re: scary website - spokeo.com
That is really freakin creepy. I've removed both of us and I told my parents. It showed a house we lived in in HB and My hubs truck is parked in the driveway. That really freaks me out!
This site aggregates data from all online sources, so depending on what you've ever put out there, it pulls up a lot more than just the Google street view of your house. Some of the personal data is inaccurate, but the address & phone numbers seem to be correct. Removal is really quick & easy. If any of you have an e-mail ending in ".gov", it will be given priority.
What sucks though is that they won't remove e-mail listings. This is their explanation:
Our email search reflects only what is found in public profiles across dozens of social networks. If your name or picture shows up on the search page, this would mean that your full name is recorded in one of the networks, such as MySpace or Facebook. Please remove your name off of all the social networks you may be on, or set them to private, if you do not wish for this to be so.
awesome.
