Teal Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Dear All It will pay to look yourself up and keep circulating this A website has been brought to my attention that may pose a risk. The website is http://www.b4usearch.com / and by clicking on 'People' and typing in an individuals name and area it brings up their home address, phone number, details of other members in the household, details of neighbours in the same street and also directions to your home. I would advise that if your details can be accessed via this website, that you have them removed. To do this send an email to privacy@b4u.co.uk and your request should be removed within 21 days if they are not removed within this time you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office by sending an email to compliance@ico.gsi.gov.uk Jon North Detective Constable 2456 Thames Valley Police Force Authorities Bureau Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 I'm on there, so sent an e mail to get my details taken off. They sent one back with an "urgent" removal fax number if you want your details taken off pronto. It only costs one fifty a minute Cheeky **** :< P.

al4x Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Beware of sending e-mails lots of companies like this do just that to get lists of valid e-mail addresses to sell to people who will then spam you. The results look like a google type search for your details which show up if they are elsewhere online Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Well im not there. 192.com is another one very similar to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Geordie Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Got me name and address but it's openly available on the electrol register anyway. My Number is Ex Directory so they aint got that Don't say when i go on holiday or what i have in the house so it's no REAL biggy is it? Besides as someone stated before this could be a rouse to get your Email address and sell it on as ALL the info they find on you is free on ANY public domain through Telephone directories AND the electrol register LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-G Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Yea I found myself too - and I was actually lost Seriously though, although it's possibly leading to junk mail etc, it (might) also cause some difficulties if a credit check or whatever company uses this and cant find you - so you get knocked back?
