PHONE NUMBER

Google has implemented a new feature which enables you to type a
telephone number into the search bar and hit enter and you will be
given the person's name and address.

If you then hit Map you will get a map to the person's house.
Everyone should be aware of this!
It's a nationwide reverse telephone book.

If a child gives out his/her phone number, someone can now look it up
to find out where he/she lives. The safety issues are obvious, and
alarming!!!

Note that you can have your phone number removed or blocked.
It will cost you to have it removed.

I tried my number and it came up along with the mapquest and directions
straight to our house.

I did fill out the removal form for myself, and encourage all of you to do the same. Please look up your own number!

In order to test whether your phone number is mapped, go to: Google
(http://www.google.com/ ) Type your phone number in the search bar
(i.e. 555-555-1212) and hit enter.

If you want to BLOCK Google from divulging your private information, simply click on your telephone number and then click on the Removal Form. Removal takes 48 hours.

Check your own number and (although this may not apply to you if you
have an unlisted number or cell phone as primary contact).

It takes Sex Offenders right to your front door!!
Please share this information with friends & family.
