What Info Do They Have on You?

Most of us have probably gotten a copy of our credit reports from time to time, but you have probably never gotten all the information that other database repositories have on you. Lexis/Nexis, more thought of as a database of legal cases and news stories, has another business -- collecting information about you! You have a right to get a free report about yourself to see what information they have collected. MrConsumer requested his, and weeks later, got mailing after mailing from L/N, with background information about myself. Most of it was useless, but nonetheless interesting to see what they captured. When writing to them, ask for your "full disclosure" report.
