Genealogy and background scammer! This ripoff's website states that, for a 1$ fee, you will get a complete report - mine was a military record search. The site takes you through several steps leading to the point where you give your debit card number and then the next step is to download your report. However, you can't; then you are taken to a page where all of your personal pertinent information is given;
I stopped at that point and contacted them via their customer service and said I had paid my fees and asked, why did I then have to give them all of this personal info. Of course, their reply was that they had to verify that I was entitled to the information - public records from the civil war (give me a break). At that pint I told them I thought they were a scam and my next step was to consumer complaints. Lo and behold! I checked my bank acct today and find two charges; one for the 1$ fee which they advertised was all I would pay, and another fee for $19.95.
Forgive me, but outlaws such as this should be taken on a ride into the desert from which they walk home barefooted. It's not bad enough that we scrimp and save to do something for ourselves, but to have some lawless butt-head doing what the government does, making life more difficult for us. My suggestion - do not go to this site, don't give anyone your pertinent information - and for sure, don't use web sites that tell you "it's free" because nothing is. I am stopping payment tomorrow morning.
