How to get your PERSONAL information OFF SPOKEO

[StacysFitness]

Thanks for letting us know how to take it off, they do have a catch though. Only 2 listings can be taken off per email address and only 4 listings on a same name can be taken off per day. So if you have 3 listings on your name and only one email address, your screwed.

[ldujka]

I am listed five times and each time I tried this I received the pop that said In order to prevent abuse, we must limit blah, blah, blah... I did not receive any confirmations in my email so I know it didn't go through. What else can I try?? I hate these types of websites. I guess I will get another email address and try it with that. Grrr...

[janelmuhammad]

I have like three profiles on spokeo was able to cancel 2 but on the third i received this message....(*In order to prevent abuse, we must limit the number of privacy requests per email address. Government officials please use your @.gov email address for priority processing.*)

Thanks for posting these directions! I deleted myself from the Spokeo last year. When I checked back today, I was listed 4 times. If anyone deleted themselves earlier, they better go back and check that they are still not on there. Thanks again!!!

[Minniepearlsmom]

i did what you said and when i get to the purchse page - and scroll to the bottom...there is no longer a privacy option to click on . any suggesions?

HEY EVERYBODY I FOUND THAT SPOKEO HAS A YOUTUBE CHANNEL

[gracekjlew]

Thank you soo soo much! I have an ex who stalks me from time to time so this is very very appreciated!!

[foxybella28]

THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS!!!!

[Rizhova007]

We should take it to higher authority to get this site to justice as it deprives us from our rights, Right To Withhold Personal Information,!!!!

[Rizhova007]

Thank you so much!!!!

I actually sent an email to the cybersecurity department of homeland security. I would like to see sites like spokeo taken down forever.

[jwemt81]

Spokeo is so screwed up! Both my husband and I removed our listings about a month ago. I decided to check it again tonight to make sure we're still not on there. I'm not on there anymore, but now when I do a search for my husband's name, it comes up with his old address that he hasn't lived at in almost 11 years! It even shows his old phone number from when he lived there! How would Spokeo find an address he hasn't lived at since the year 2000?!?! It's where he lived when we first met!

[lester5192]

these sites should just be made illegal. why wait until things crash and burn too much? people are too weirded out these days and are more stalkers. some sites get taken down by the law. 

[1952cynjus]

How did you remove 4 listings when it won't let you use the same e-mail address???

[CartomartaKenDoll]

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! IT'S KIND OF CREEPY KNOWING PEOPLE COULD FIND WHERE I CURRENTLY LIVE,WHERE I USE TO LIVE, MY HOME NUMBER AND CELLPHONE NUMBER!

[wildbabiii98]

oh my gosh! thank you so much. I had no idea my information was out there.. and scary enough not only did it give my phone number, address, and family member names, and much else.. it had a picture of where i lived. what is wrong with people to think this is ok to do?

[MissMusicalJessica]

Even though you added an annotation to censor out the number, the viewer can just close it, & still see what's behind it. x) Just thought i'd let ya know.

[Ripped407]

As of 2/7/11 when you click remove listing, the site hangs and nothing happens

[dhuebbe]

I've been calling that John Smith all day. He's pissed.

[LAZERBEEMofTRUTH]

@dhuebbe That has been censored thank you for reminding me to do that. 

[MissLoveTantei91]

So this works with emails and screen names too?

[LAZERBEEMofTRUTH]

@MissLoveTantei91 Im not actually sure, I only used my name to look up my info. Please post in comments if you find you're able to locate your identity also with email and screen name after you remove your ID by name ok?

[LAZERBEEMofTRUTH]

@MissLoveTantei91 Im not actually sure, I only used my name to look up my info. Please post in comments if you find you're able to locate your identity also with email and screen name after you remove your ID by name ok

[MissLoveTantei91]

@LAZERBEEMofTRUTH Actually, my real name is nowhere on the site. I've removed a couple emails already, but I can't figure out how to remove screen names. :/ Ah well.

[TenajB]

Guess I should be happy, neither my husband or I are listed.

[bitchimastartv]

Yo, thanks man that site is very dangerous.Somebody could be on the witness protection program from a crazy lover or etc.. & the crazy person or somebody in their family could instantly find them.I think sites like this should be shut down man. here is a link to lots of sites like that h t t p : // mashable.com/ 2007/10/23/social-networking-g­­od/

TRAP WARNING: People are spreading a post about removing your info from Spokeo. But it may be a trap: They MAKE you give them your email. Associating your email with your info creates a valuable commodity, which they can re-sell to spammers. Snopes is suspicious this is their real business. snopes.com/computer/internet/s­pokeo.asp

[MissPickletoes]

@kevynjacobs Perhaps you can create a temporary email address to use to get your info removed, and then delete the email address?

[kevynjacobs]

@MissPickletoes Yes, a temporary email address should work.

[kevynjacobs]

@MissPickletoes Yes, a temporary email address should work.

[ProfDeth]

About how long until your personal listings disappeared from a search?

[LAZERBEEMofTRUTH]

@ProfDeth Pretty much as soon as I clicked on the confirmation link that was sent to my email, that ID was removed from the directory. Again I had to do it 4 different times, and once you do it twice they say "sorry but this email has been used all ready".. hope that helps.

[eclipse8598]

thanks man



[racmop1]

thank you!!

[cCcMo42cCc]

Yo brother i live in Europe.

Is there maybe a site out there about Europe?

[nextdimensions]

Be aware that if you have multiple listings, which I did, you can only remove 2 w/ an email, then you must use another email to remove the rest.

[Hirt1026]

Thank you brother

[LAZERBEEMofTRUTH]

@Hirt1026 you are welcome my friend.

[Yankeeprepper]

Thanks Dude. I will be putting this up on my channel and linking to you.

[LAZERBEEMofTRUTH]

@Yankeeprepper No Problem Yankee, thanks for mirroring.
