And have any of those people doing the positive feedback used trick names to prove whether or not the org sold their names off?

Like I said - there's no way to be sure they haven't sold you name off.

Do YOU know which companies you order things from or give your info to, have sold off their data?

actually, whenever my father has to give his name, email, etc for a new thing, he will use a different title or suffix, or transpose a few of the letters, use a different middle initial, etc. this way he knows when he starts getting things sent to certain names, where they got the info.

I have thought of that, and I had heard of it, for example, giving a name as John LL Smith, when ordering from LL Bean.
