Complaint Review: Zabasearch

I was informed about this site by a friend. Zabasearch sent me this email requesting letter in writing to remove my name from their site...From: response@zabasearch.com
Subject: Your ZabaSearch.com Inquiry

We received your request. The following is the fastest way to create, edit or block your records from appearing in ZabaSearch. ZabaTools allow you to take control of the information available about you or to manage how you allow others to communicate with you. You can create, edit, block your record or add a ZabaLink all for free.

Why create a record? If you don't exist in ZabaSearch and would like to be included.

Why edit a record? If you are in ZabaSearch, but would like to update your information. Or, add your e-mail address or your web site URL to your record.

Why block a record ?** If you want to block your address and/or telephone number.

Add a free ZabaLink! Instead of blocking a record, consider replacing your address and/or telephone number with a ZabaLink*.

**If someone finds and clicks your ZabaLink (placed where your address or telephone number was), they will come to an e-mail form that will allow them to send a message to you without knowing your e-mail address, where you are, or if you ever even received the message. You can respond, ignore, or send back a non-delivery notice. ZabaLinks empower you to control how people can communicate with you on the Internet. You can be found, only if you want to be, on a person by person basis. And, ZabaLinks are free!

In order to create, edit, or block your record and/or to add a ZabaLink, all for free, you must make that request in writing and mail it to: ZabaTools, 2828 Cochran Street # 397, Simi Valley, California 93065. Receiving requests by mail allows us to verify and process your requests quickly. Records created, edited and ZabaLinks added may take up to several weeks to appear in ZabaSearch. Records requested to be blocked are typically processed the next business day after receiving the request. You will be notified by e-mail when you request enters our system and then once more when the requested records have been adjusted. Please specify if you want to create, edit, delete a record and/or add a free ZabaLink, e-mail address or URL to your record. If you add a free ZabaLink, please include the e-mail address where you would like messages blindly forwarded to from your ZabaLink.

In order to fill your request your letter must contain the following information to insure we create, edit or delete the correct records. After you confirm by e-mail that we processed your request, your letter and the information you provided in it will be shredded. You will have created a record for yourself just as you like it and will be eventually given online tools to adjust your information as you like live in ZabaSearch 24/7.

1. E-mail address
2. Full name including middle initial
3. Address of the record you wish to create, edit or delete

5. Year of birth.
6. Specify if you are requesting to create, edit or delete a record or if you want to add a ZabaLink
or URL to your record.

I then submitted another response and told them that I would take legal action, as they were not given any authority to use my personal information. I received another email rejecting my email. Something should be done to shut down the low down site. Guess what..second response was as follows...Hi. This is the qmail-send program at brandt.peopledata.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

user is over quota

So who says peopledata and Zabasearch are not connected
