Complaint Review: Complete Investigation Service CIS Worldwide CIS Nationwide Government Registry

It nickles and dimes you to death.  Checked my own name out and my report came back that I comitted 19 thiefs, 2 sexual assaults, 5 drug charges, 14 traffic violiations, 3 criminal records, etc, etc.  When I went to get these individual reports they wanted me to pay 10 or more per report.  Of course when i clicked on them I was told  there were no records on me.  THis was a tease to get you to spend money.  I have never done anything illegal in my life, so this is upsetting.  When I complained the company sent me a form letter saying I could have my name OPTED OUT:

Note  and Disclaimer: We will use good faith efforts to help prevent your non-public records from being distributed. However, we cannot provide any assurance that information that is public record, such as court, property, marriage records, etc., for example, will be withheld. Once records are blocked or removed, we do not guarantee the information will not be available again in the future from other sources or our site. CIS Nationwide obtains data from multiple sources and opting out of publicly available data may not affect the availability of records to government entities, law enforcement, the business community, or for other legally permissible purposes. In addition, we have no control over records provided by third party vendors.

Public records are generated every day, by millions of Americans as they live their lives. Every time someone sells a home, lists their phone number, registers to vote, or opens up a new business they are creating a public record which is then stored in any number of ways- at the county recorders office, the county auditor, phone directories, or at the secretary of states office. All of these records may be found on the Internet. Public records are just that: public. That means that things like liens, deeds, court files, and marriage records are (and have always been) accessible to the public at large.To permanently have your records sealed, you will need to contact your countys records department.
