PSA: Image is of a twitter thread warning about a website called familytreenow.com This site has an optout link at http://ift.tt/2iHB66l that I recommend using. The site provides past addresses, previous/birth/deadnames and *EVEN* former roommates, etc, under “possible associates”
I STRONGLY recommend hitting the optout on this thing.
They had all of the addresses I’d lived at from 2000 until 2005, and the names of the people I’d lived with (and the names of some of their relatives) when I searched for myself - even though I haven’t lived in the US for 12 years. PLEASE check to make sure you aren’t on this.
They had every address I’ve had for the past 24 years. They should just call it IdentifyTheftHelper.com.
Well, that was creepy as shit.
reblogging for my US peeps.
