[QUOTE="PGB1, post: 1150392, member: 76746"] [b]Scary Alright![/b] Thanks for the replies. It was weird that when I opened the E-Mail on a totally different computer, the list changed to people that were, by coincidence, in that computer's address book. Another funny thing is, I haven't contacted three of the people they suggested in over a year. I wish I could figure this out. Since there is no way they got into the address book, and I assume not my hard drive or old E-Mails- How the heck did they match me with those people? They must have some crazy good analytical software to put 2 and 2 together so fast. I know I sound (and maybe am in this case) paranoid, but it isn't right when a private company can figure out who I know and who I don't. I sure won't be contacting Facebook to inquire. I don't want to go anywhere near these people. Now, I'm off to cut the RFID tags out of my new jacket & sweater & unhook the black box in my car. (Just kidding!) Paul [/QUOTE]
