[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was innocently googling myself and found a detailed description of myself on mylife.com with my name, age, sex, address, and phone numbers (correct info) and my religion,  income, race and relatives' names (incorrect info).

Just a PSA for those who want to remove their info from these search engines.  This article has really useful information on how to get it done.  (I spent 20 minutes doing this now tonight instead of posting on DCUM).

OP here.  Bumping this up two weeks later to document my experience.   My information is gone from mylife.com, intellius and spokeo, so I'm happy with that and it didn't take much time at all to remove my info from each site (maybe 5 minutes each or less). However, I found a new sites called whitepages.com, publicrecordsnow.com and instantcheckmate.com where my info is still residing, and having been trying to remove my info there as well.   It's worth taking a look at the information these sites have on "you" because I was shocked at how much written on the Internet about me was wrong (probably taken from someone else with a same/similar name).
