FAMILYTREENOW.com is a scam genealogy website. They will take your information and publicly post it without your consent to the internet and sell it to anyone even other identity thieves and you won't ever see a dime.

As long as these thieves can make money off you, they will continue to do so. In my case, my stalkers (sister & brother team - Amy Lynette N. And Michael Alan D.) shared my personal information WITHOUT my consent on this genealogy website as a tool to harass, stalk and seek revenge. How do I know it is them? The tracks they have left behind and keep leaving behind. It's been over 2 years now. SMH

Regardless, this website should be held accountable and not allow psychotic nut jobs to add someone else personal and private records without their consent. Genealogy websites claim they get your information from other public databases which is not all true, (pay attention to the wording in their terms and privacy policy... what a joke!)

Anyone can add your personal information in several ways. One way is by downloading a special type of software to build a family tree, add all your personal data to that family tree then share it with these identity thieving websites which they will end up selling it to anyone. Another way is by going to these genealogy websites and starting up a family tree simply by adding your name and your personal data and anyone else data they want to include, even if it's inaccurate. How do I know all this? Again, the tracks both stalkers keep leaving behind.

If you request to have your personal data removed, like I have, they should honor it and remove it, but they won't. If they refuse to remove your personal info, you should file a complaint with your state attorney general, Federal Trade Commission, FBI, law enforcement and Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3.) The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) is a partnership between the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C). I've already filed complaints and reports against these websites and my stalkers.

Another scam ran by identity thieves. A website that claims their service is free yet they allow stalkers and identity thieves to share anything about anyone and also purchase information on anyone. These scam genealogy websites are making money. Why else would they spend the money to create a website and go through all the trouble and details of publicly posting your personal records on their website? Thy even say they get their info from other public databases which isn't true. Even the wording in their privacy policy and terms is questionable. Doesn't take a genius... BEWARE!

Total scam just like familytreenow dot com. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's the same owner for both sites.
