An Idea About Family Tree Sites…

A supporter just sent me a message that I wanted to share with you all.

She said, “I recently came across a website that reveals people addresses and phone numbers. It’s called familytreenow.com . If you google how to “opt out” there are instructions. I thought it might interest your followers because this site gives out all relatives names, current phone numbers and current addresses. Snopes even verified rumors of criminals using this site to find info about police. I opted out but it still has my birth record.”  https://www.familytreenow.com

With that being said, I know many people find these type of websites useful, so here is a link that has some suggestions if you decide to use these sites.

It’s sad that we have to always be vigilant about cyberstalkers and strangers that go online and do us harm, but we should always know the risks and try to stay vigilant.  Knowledge is power – so always stay informed.

Hope you are all having a wonderful day!  #Justice4Morgan!
