C'punks, Something of privacy interest happened to me yesterday. I phoned a company to ask for a copy of their catalog. The phone clerk asked for my last name and zip code. After receiving that info, the clerk asked me, "Is this your full name and address?" and then gave them both correctly. I was taken aback. I have been at my new address for only a couple of months. Prior to that, I have been couch surfing for a year and a half. Though I called an 800 number, ANI had nothing to do with it since I was calling from work. It may have been from a database associated with a credit reporting agency, a bank or a utility company, but I am not aware of any of these being available on-line for something as mundane as requesting a consumer catalog. The clerk had no idea where the info came from (or so he said). Does anyone know how this trick was done? S a n d y P.S. If anyone is interested in helping to make an adult film, drop me a note. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
