How to opt out of V12 Data
- 1.Open the Porch Group Media opt-out form. It covers the V12 Data file as a whole, not a single listing.

- 3.Add an email address, a phone number, and today's date in MM/DD/YYYY form.
- 4.Tick the certification that the request is for yourself, rather than for someone whose power of attorney you hold or a deceased family member.
- 5.Submit the form. Porch Group Media states it processes removals in no longer than 10 business days.

THE DURABLE FIX
V12 Data is one site. You’re on dozens.
The same records that put you on V12 Data are spread across our full data-broker opt-out list, and that spread is how wholesalers and spammers got your number in the first place. Opting out of one site helps for a while, then V12 Data re-lists you after its next data refresh. FendLand finds you across all 108, files every removal, keeps re-checking because they come back, and blocks the spam already hitting your phone.

Questions
Is V12 Data legitimate?
Yes. V12 Data is a real company, not a scam. It is a data broker: it buys and compiles property, ownership, and contact records, then licenses them to marketers, lenders, and the skip-trace tools wholesalers use to find owners to call. That is a legal business in the US, which is why your records can be in its database without you ever hearing of it. Opting out is your right and it is free: V12 Data publishes its own request process, and you do not have to give a reason. Some property and mortgage data may be kept under regulatory exemptions, so a removal can be partial.
Why is V12 Data showing my information?
V12 Data builds its file on you from public property and mortgage records, recorded deeds, and commercial marketing data it licenses in bulk, not from anything you handed it. Your name enters its database the moment you appear on a recorded document, which is why it can list you with no signup. You can request removal or suppression for free, though some property and mortgage records may be retained under regulatory exemptions.
Will removing myself from V12 Data stop the "we buy your house or land" texts?
It helps, but V12 Data is one of many data brokers feeding the same marketing and skip-trace lists, and the records return after each refresh, so the durable fix is removing yourself across the whole set and re-verifying on a schedule, not once. That is exactly what FendLand automates.
