Questions

Is SocialCatfish legitimate?

Yes. SocialCatfish is a real company, not a scam. It is a people-search data broker: it compiles public records, marketing data, and social profiles into a page on you and shows or sells it to anyone who searches your name, including wholesalers and skip-tracers. Compiling public-record data is a legal business in the US, which is why it can list you without asking first. Opting out is your right and it is free: SocialCatfish publishes its own removal process, and you do not have to give a reason.

Why is SocialCatfish showing my information?

Your name, current and past addresses, phone numbers, age, and relatives, compiled into a public profile anyone can look up. People-search and reverse-lookup site that publishes public name, address, phone, email, and social-profile records, and also matches people by email, phone, or image. Wholesalers and investors use sites like this to connect a property address to the owner. It carries the standard disclaimer that it is not a consumer reporting agency.

Will removing myself from SocialCatfish stop the "we buy your house or land" texts?

It helps, but SocialCatfish is one of many people-search sites, and it re-lists you after each data refresh, so the durable fix is opting out everywhere and re-checking on a schedule, not once. That is exactly what FendLand automates.
