    Remove Your Name & Personal Information from Internet?

    Anyone got a good cheat sheet or site they can recommend, if you want to scrub the internet of your data? While I know its not easy, it can be done.

    12+ years ago, I had an awakening. A PI I hired to track someone down for me, did so in about two weeks without ever leaving his office. I got the new address I was looking for, and a full report, all for $100 USD. That report had the names of 40 + people, including SSN, and DOB based on the fact they had a common address with this guy I was searching for. My data was in that report.

    Now I take a moderate approach to everything, from registering on sites, to using the latest smart phone technologies.

    What do you do to protect your privacy?

    I occasionally "find" people for friends and it normally takes me less than an hour to NAL'EM down because I not only use the search engines but subscribe to several information services which I find helpful in my pursuits.

    Recently tracked down a few for my bank which made the bank happy.

    As far as protecting one's privacy, why would anyone on an open forum tell what they do to protect themselves so as to give the hackers and bad guys ways around it?

              You cannot remove, you can only bury and be more careful from now on.

                Nothing risked at sharing some tips.

                I found a few online, which I will attempt to delete next week. Problem is, sometimes they require "more" information about you, to prove your identity, before they remove it from their public DB.

                I've been reasonably careful for 12 years now. Nonetheless old info and known associates/friends/relatives pop up once in awhile.

                      Pretty much true but you can get your accurate stuff buried as been suggested by simply not using your own personal info whenever and wherever possible and this tactic is perfectly legal in most cases.

                      To keep your personal info from being spread around in future though, you can rely on blind business entities, not LLCs, as they are often transparent, lead directly to you and all info contained in LLC filings is generally publicly accessible. Corporations are best for privacy as with the right kind of filing, your name appears nowhere in the documentaion and the EIN obfuscates the public financial trail to you. Prepaid no-name debit or gift cards do a good job of masking financial trails. Prepaid cell phones are not only for the guys on "Sons of Anarchy"!

                      "Nominees", or people fronting for you can be good and pseudonyms can be slick as the use of pseudonyms is generally legal as long as you are not using them to do anything illegal. Post Office boxes are useful and mail forwarding services off benefits to privacy. Telephone masking services like Vumber and others can be Godsends. You can give Vonage any name you want for any number of lines anad use a reloadable prepaid tdo pay them.

                      Last but not least by far are VPSs, VPNs and the elite proxy, traces for which end in a city to which you have never been. Nothing like appearing to be in San Francisco when actually you are in Boise, Idaho!

                      There is more but this should get you started.

                      It's all about privacy in an age when privacy is under attack from all sides and there is nothing illegal in anything I have suggested.

                        Yes Marion, they CAN be, but not when the person is so stupid as to keep exactly the same writing style.

                              All very good suggestions for the general audience here ... all of which is already in play moderately for many years.

                                  Nothing bad. I just believe its "no ones" business but my own, where I live, who are my friends and family are, etc. The idea that the general public, let alone govt, knows more about me, than I can even remember about myself, concerns me.

                                      I doubt you'd be able to remove every trace of yourself from the net.

                                      You could try hiding in plain sight by creating additional personas with the same name, posting vastly different views, but if anyone looks too closely they'll see that these new versions of your name only appeared after a certain date.

                                      If your name is common you may already have prominent people that share your name (I have at least 2 others)

                                      I have posts from 1991 that are archived on Google. It's fucken scary reading them.

                                                You could try hiding in plain sight by creating additional personas with the same name, posting vastly different views, but if anyone looks too closely they'll see that these new versions of your name only appeared after a certain date.

                                                If your name is common you may already have prominent people that share your name (I have at least 2 others)

                                                I have posts from 1991 that are archived on Google. It's fucken scary reading them.

                                                  Update: visited a local library, and didn't have my "library card". I don't think I stepped foot in there for over a decade. Had the "reference desk" personel look me up. I gave the name, and city, and they proceeded to read out some property address, and other more private information. Damn! The library.

                                                  Required a call to a County Administrator to get my information purged from their DB.

Depending on the state you have to announce your trust in a publication of a certain size. Just make sure to find a publication that is not on the Internet. I've yet to find any leading information on the net about mine and well, more then a few people would like to have a private conversation with me.. <grin>

                                                        Also, what I highly suggest if you already have great credit? A congressional law was passed 2006 due to all the ID theft, you're now able to lock your credit from everyone inquiring from the big three. Obviously something you don't want to do if you're trying to build credit, but I soon noticed CC, bank loan offers, FA's, charities, as junk mail just became nonresistant over night. Meaning, I only kept 2 CC, both Amex, paid of the rest, and then locked my credit as I've NEVER had my credit ID stolen. To unlock your credit simply send a downloadable form with your info and $10 per agency.
                                                        Excellent advice for the readers ... JHC. Assets have been placed in trusts years ago. Credit data at all three CRBs locked down, and I am also using 2 cards only.

                                                        Regardless there are attempts to separate me from my $ on average 2x yearly. While in Mexico (ATMs only),
                                                        someone attempted to buy an airline ticket to the Philippines from Australia. In Greece (used at restaurants/hotels) someone was charging misc expenses in Turkey, and two months ago in EU (ATMs only) someone purchased $700 USD in fuel at a petrol/gas station. What were they driving ... a Semi? What do I do to minimize the risks? I announce in advance to the banks, which exact country I will be in next and which days, and misc charges are capped at $500 USD per day.

                                                        I encourage others reading this, to contribute their stories and advice. It serves as a reminder that we can do more to protect ourselves.
