I just got a call from the FHM magazine people on how I like the magazine and if I would want to get three more years. How the hell did they get my number? I never gave it out on the subscription form for the free one year.

Thats why I use my nickname rather than my real name. Probably they got it from one of those "third party affiliates"

I even misspelled my name. I wonder if they can look it up through the address.

Give me either your name, address, city, and state you live in and I'll find out more about you than you probably know, yourself.

Anyone can do it. It just takes a little money. Businesses like FHM can find out information about you quite easily. Especially if you're debted to them.

Hate to bring up an old topic but I got one of those calls yesterday. Got another one just 2 minutes ago. This is getting annoying. Hope this doesn't become a daily thing. :disgust:
