Scam & Privacy Violation

I was searching around and came across this website and I noticed they had information on my 15 year old daughter posted. I promptly called them but I know how this information sellings sites work so I *67 before so they wouldnt get my cellphone number.
I spoke to a guy there and explained that they had information on my child and that I wanted it removed right away, the guy was helpful said he would get it done immediately.. And I thought that we were all finished, about 5 hours later after I called them I noticed 2 missed calls from a friend puzzled why she hadnt left a message (she always does) I called her back thinking something was wrong and that was when she said someone HIJACKED my phone, obviously I thought she was kidding until she told me that when she called that she heard my ring back and then when it would normally go to voice mail that it directed it off to mylife.com's phone service.. Well not completly convinced I called it myself and she was right.. I was shocked, I had my husband call my cell and it did the same thing it would do about 30 seconds of my ring back and then off to their answering system where you could here the information of Mylife.com and ask if you were a member and try to inlist you to sign up... I was completely in shock.. MY husband spoke to a representative there and asked how it was that they were interupting my cell phone calls and they insisted that they donot conduct business like that, my husband asked them to stop it and they got rude and hung up on him.. Confused and quite upset he called Verizon and spoke to them there who verified that it was infact going over to the mylife.com answering system he even called and verified it him self, they checked to make sure I hadnt accidently forwarded it off and to even his confusion it didnot show that I had accidently done anything after getting a supervisior and tech support involved they were able to unlink my phone so it was no longer going over to mylife.com's answering system.. But how scary is this that companies can do that and try to be sneaky and direct all of YOUR incoming calls directly to them in order to sell a product.
Let this being a warning to anyone wishing to call this company that trying to block your number doesnt work be smart and use a payphone...

Scam & Privacy Violation

I did not know about MyLife.com or reunion.. I'm always careful about my information leaking in internet. I have set everything in private setting that's online.. but when I typed my name on Goodgle search.. OMG... this MyLife.com thing pops out!!
name, age, people who might be my family(well, there were many people I never heard of), places I lived in!! and all the info was available for free!!! geez!!! so I googled mylife.com invasion of privacy. I saw a link for phone # to call and have them remove my name..
so I called 1-888-704-1900 to remove my info and the lady I talked to was nice but I was already pissed. she asked for my name, age, place I live. well, they didn't have my current information so I gave her whatever was on their site. and she transfer me to other person. i had to give her my info all over again and she asked me addresses of the address I lived in. SURE~~ I'll give u my address~ I just told her some street names. and she said okay. she said it'll take about 7 to 10 business days to remove my info. WTF I told her(even though it's not her doing..I was pissed..) it's invasion of my privacy! and she said, "yeah. I know...but we have ways to get people's informations for others who's looking for people.." whatever.. I asked her again to make sure my info is off their site. she said yes...

and then i came across this site... damn.. i should've read this too before calling...

after reading what happened to 'upset in Oregon'... i was like..no way... and I called my cell phone from my home phone...
F**K!!! it doesn't go to MyLife.com's # but it goes to some fax machine... I tried calling from my phone and first, it didn't even let me make out going called... but after trying 5 times, phone got through. but still no incoming calls... I called my friends to try calling my phone and my phone doesn't even ring!!! my friends texts me through sns n tells me it makes weird noise!
I was freaking out and about to call them again and was looking for place to report them or something THEN, about 50 mins after I got off the phone with them to remove my info, a call came through... geez... all the stress i got...

ISN'T THERE SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO SHUT THIS SITE DOWN???
HOW IS THIS LEAGAL???
I mean just name & city.. then, I'll understand... but pictures, age, families, address... without any consent!
