Just came across this advert on ebay, someone has got hold of 22000 electricians details inluding name, phone number etc, I would like to know where they got it from.

22,000+ Electricians Database for direct mail and telemarketing | eBay

Reported to ebay, hopefully it'll get taken down and the seller removed. Only one feedback so it look like they're taking a chance at not getting caught.

Companies like that really hack me off, not as if we get enough spam in our daily lives.

I see they are selling loads of databases icluding Painters & Decorators and plumbers

 

[telectrix]

i've reported it as well. as if we don't get enough spam as it is, without these cretins.

Maybe I should sell my database of care homes in Wales - I have over 50,000 in total on there - got it from CSSIW 2 years back.

includes:
emails
company names
managers name
Address
Telephone number

I like it when they call and say can i speak to the transport manager and I reply well you are speaking to him then i save their phone number under Scam or spam 1,2-3 so i dont have to answer it again

For £4.99 would it be worth buying to see if I appear on it.

Seriously though this sort of sale should not be allowed.

I think it's been taken down now.

Cheeky beggars!!!

Lenny, you shouldn't have put it up for sale on the ebay, in the first place!!!!

 

[Strima]

At least ebay have actually acted on something for a change.

Also reported the rest of their items. I really hate any form of telemarketing stuff.

I got them from CSSIW - I asked them for an up-to-date list of all care homes in Wales - within 1hr they had sent them all to me.

Easy

Also under the freedom of information act they must give you anything (within reason) you ask for about private/public organisations.

I only asked for addresses and manager names - all under the FOI Act
