In case you didn't know about this site (I didn't)...... Most of the information seems to be correct - and they even connect with the correct Google Maps pictures to show your houses. Anyway, for what its worth.................
There’s a site call Spokeo.com that’s a new online USA phone book w/personal information such as pics you’ve posted to FB, your approx credit score, home value, income, age, family members, even cc#’s.



Remove yourself by searching for your name at the site’s home page, once you’re at the results click on your name and copy the url and then click on the “Privacy” link in the lower right hand corner (hard to see because it’s grey-colored) to remove yourself. Follow the directions after that.

Dude! I just had allot of fun looking up old friends on that site. Sure enough much of my profile and my wife's was there but there was also quite a bit of info that was wrong. As quickly as we delete this kind of crap there will be another to replace it. It's nice to stay on top of it as much as we can though. Thanks for the heads up.

Found zero on me as Jack....my telephone number and nothing else by my real name (john), nothing on my wife, nothing at all on my 14 year old son who has a bazillion facebook entries. I'm not impressed.
