I wrote Scarlett of Blockshopper.com. My first request to have my name and address removed was met with the statement that I would have to provide proof I was either a law enforcement individual or else I was involved in a protection order. I am neither. I threatened to contact an attorney and she sent me a reply back stating the following: "You can contact the recorder and assessor's office in the county you reside. If they are willing to remove you from the public record the information will drop off our database during our next update." I plan to contact my county recorder or assessor's office to have this removed from my record at the county level which, in turn, should have it removed from Blockshopper.com's website.

I have e-mailed this organization 3 times about deleting my information. I am getting no response. It looks like they hijack your information whether you like it or not. This information is out there for anybody to see. This is a horrible organization that refuses to take off your personal information.

    I reached out to Scarlett ** (**) asking to please remove my personal information from the blockshopper.com site that they had obtained by scrubbing public records. After a few weeks I finally received a response that they would not remove my personal information without a copy of the police report or restraining order and after they have reviewed these documents. Absolutely horrible abuse of public information.

    This website publicly posts names, addresses and other private information of sworn public officials including law enforcement officers. The company refuses to remove this information unless provided copies of employment badges or work identification cards. And if harassment or threats are the result of these postings of private addresses, they will only remove address information if provided confidential court and police records confirming harassment or threats. It is against the law to publicly post law enforcement officers' names and addresses, but this company continues to do so, even after multiple requests to remove. And to make it mandatory we provide them with our badges, identification and court records, is outright absurd. This opens the door for further issues including identity theft.

    “Scarlett” at this business is the only contact person listed. When contacted her response is nothing posted on her site isn’t already “easily obtained or available online because it is public record.” So my advice to anyone concerned about this website DO NOT send them a copy of your badge, ID, or court records, hoping to get your information removed. Contact the DOJ or your state’s attorney general's office and file a complaint instead.

    Blockshopper.com is displaying my name, address, phone number, email, and even a map to my CA home. I contacted scarlett@blockshopper.com numerous times and they refuse to honor my requests to remove my information. Not only are they displaying my private info against my wishes, but they are also selling my info for profit. This violates my privacy and borders on criminal behavior.

    I have been speaking to a Scarlet ** about CA rights of privacy, she is refusing to remove my online information and is claiming it is public which is false and not allowed, I am sick of her asking me for personal information and I am in no way obligated to allow a breach of my personal information online at this scammer site and to provide anything that is private. CA does not allow this. This company is scamming people and very rude about respecting the privacy and rights of others. A lawsuit is very much due.

    I contacted Blockshopper to request my family members' names be masked or removed. My request was denied. Since they published my details, two other websites used blockshoppers info. Filed BBB complaint.

    I find it literally unbelievable that BlockShopper will NOT remove your information by simply asking them to opt out. They told me it requires crime with a police report first to be be removed. They seem to not understand the danger they created. This should be investigated by the Attorney General!

    I have requested multiple times to be removed from this website and they refuse to remove my information, as they state it is "public record". This is a huge privacy and safety concern for those who want to remain anonymous. Someone needs to start a lawsuit against them.

    I have been trying to get Scarlett ** to remove my data from Blockshopper for nearly 2 years. First she refused and now she has stopped responding to my emails. I am a resident of California and have repeatedly told her that as a data broker they are subject to and need to honor my privacy due to CCPA 2018. Nothing. I don’t understand how they’re getting away from with breaking the law. But I have filed a complaint with the attorney general of California. If you’re a resident of California, it doesn’t matter if you own property in other states. You can still claim CCPA based on your state of residence. My advice to California residents is to file a complaint with the attorney general of California and at some point a critical mass of complaints will be reached and they’ll be put out of business will be forced to comply for those of us who are California residents at least.
