Our database was obtained from American Business Information. They make those CDROMs with 11 million business names and addresses, and other such products. There is a link to their web page from our US download page.
Our verification software does not check that the person whose name is entered in the form lives at the address entered in the form. We do verify some parts of the information entered. Things like is the state code one of the 50 states, does the zip code match the state, etc. (NOTE - these may not be the exact checks implemented currently. I have not examined the code myself, but these are the types of checks being done.)
I got my copy after entering my accomodation address in New York City so the address part of the control mechanism is not a problem. DCF
