My Life Website - Page 2

I just looked up my name. They do have my age, birth date, and family members correct. I have a newer car than what they show. I don't really think they are saying that you have arrest or criminal records. They are just trying to entice you to look and see. I imagine if you paid for the full report that it would show no arrest records.

I wonder how many people wil pay for this information about themselves or others? I put in a completely false email address to get as far as I did. It's one that couldn't possibly be anyone else's either--just jumbled letters--so that no one else will start getting spam from them.

all i see are my name/names, my age (which is correct), one place i have lived, and one relatives name/2 friends names?

@sunshine45 There's one other thing you can do without paying, but I don't remember what it is. In addition to what you said, I saw my car (I have a new car since then), what I paid for my house (correct) and what it's worth now (incorrect--it says the same thing as what I paid). Everything that you saw is correct on mine, too. To see what I saw, I did have to put in my name, age, zip code and email address. I put in an incorrect zip code and email address. I just put jumbled letters in for the email address so that no one else would start getting emails from them.

After I got to that point, it gave me the choices for what to pay in order to see the legal records.

@sunshine45 It didn't ask me to create a password. I wouldn't have done that if it had asked.

I only added my name - it was listed but with additional info which was incorrect.

OK......I just looked up MYSELF on My Life:

My birthdate is WRONG

My "spouse" has been DEAD for 20 years

They "guessed" my income and worth WAY WRONG

I have had 3 cars since the one they listed

I never heard of any of my "neighbors" except 2 that passed away years ago

My house is worth more than TWICE what they guessed.............

@Desertdi I've looked up myself, and other family members, on that site. The information is always wrong. It's a shoddy website.

@OnlyShopsOnline What kinda irks me, is that some people WILL believe that junk. Even worse......what if a prospective employer looks it up? I'm retired.....but I understand employers now look up their workers on social media and also do credit checks. di

@Desertdi You hit the nail on the head. That's exactly how I feel about it!
