no sh!t sherlock

None of this is new.

The newest thing they do is access the DMV database to verify you when they give you the 4 question identity quiz. So you will have to access the database as well, pull an intellis person search report, or know the cars used by the people at the address you use.

I read that pp does not get access to the name, ssn and other personal info.
They however get info on certain cars, driving records etc.

State and federal law does not allow them to access your personal information that I am aware of.

If this is not correct let us know.

That Is just Scary......

Na them ?'s is not ture about the cars there only there to trick u. the only thing they can verfiys is the same things u can find useing public databases.

Yeah they use what we all can see if we look around. Nothing sneaky really.

They just posted what most businesses do anyway but they told us about it up front.

Wouldn't that be id theft if you access the database and use there address and name? I thought we were in agreement to answer none of the above too?
