Misinformation, Disinformation & Reformation
My name is Frank M. Ahearn and I am known as a skip tracer who finds people as well as a privacy expert who teaches people how to disappear. Whether you are a hardcore extremist who wants to live under the radar or simply in search of a little more privacy, you need to use the tools of Misinformation, Disinformation and Reformation.
Let us take a quick test, go to the website Zabasearch and pop in your name. First, try it as a nationwide search than narrow it down to a statewide search. Most people will see a list of addresses, some might see old addresses, perhaps your current phone number or work number. Did you see your date of birth?
Take it a step further, where you typed your name above it click on the link search by social security. Type in your SS# and last name, this is free so fear not. What’s interesting about this search it list cities and states where you lived, even far back as college. In addition, it may show the city you currently live that may not have appeared in Zabasearch.
From the simple steps I showed you a skip tracer, bill collector or stalker could find your home address in a matter of minutes, even your parents homes, or work address or number. I know you are thinking what it matters, I pay my bills, no one is stalking me, and what do you have to worry about, your right you do not, however, some company is selling your information for the world to see.
There was a time when data was garbage in and garbage out. Now day’s data almost exist like corporate gold. Data is the key to a good consumer and corporations buy and sell your information repeatedly.
Look in your wallet, see all those cards in there, those cards are a wealth of information. Your credit cards list every transaction you make; your discount cards from bookstore‘s, airline‘s, car rental companies, and video stores all have detailed information about you.
Misinformation is the act of taking information that companies have on you and destroying it beyond recognition. The purpose for this is when a company sells your information to the different data companies, they will not have your old address, your work number or your date of birth online for all to obtain.
Your home phone number list every call you have ever made over a period of time, your cellular phone as well. Answer, get non detailed billing, and have the bill sent to a PO Box or mail drop.
Your frequent flyer with an airline lists every trip you logged. What is amazing about this is most airlines keep your information not by account number but by name and zip code. I suggest using a mail drop in a different city, which has no connection to you or your home address.
Car rental companies keep track of whom you are by your phone number, which leaves a record of every car you rented. Do not give them your real phone number give them 867-5309. Theses companies do not really need your home or cell number.
Video stores keep your records by phone number, a good skip tracer can do a little social engineering and pretext the store and find various information about you. Give a bogus number. Keep in mind your not breaking the law it is your account, tell them what you choose to tell them.
Remember the old days of Radio Shack; you could not buy a $2.00 battery with out them asking for your phone number. Below are lists of companies that have a slew of information about you.
Telephone
Cell phone
Pager
