Your name, social security number, current address, previous addresses,
mother's maiden name, birth date and other personal information
are now available to anyone with a credit card through a new Lexis
database called P-Trax. As I am sure you are aware, this information
could be used to commit credit card fraud or otherwise allow someone
else
to use your identity.

You can have your name and information removed from this list by making
a
telephone request. Call (800)543-6862, select option 4 and
then option 3 ("all other questions") and tell the representative
answering that you wish to remove your name from the P-trax database.
You
may also send a fax to (513) 865-7360, or physical mail to LEXIS-NEXIS /
P.O. Box 933 / Dayton, Ohio 45401-0933. Sending physical
mail to confirm your name has been removed is always a good idea.

As word of the existence of this database has spread on the net,
Lexis-Nexis
has been inundated with calls, and has set up a special set of
operators to handle the volume. In addition, Andrew Bleh (rhymes with
"Play") is a manager responsible for this product, and is the person
to whom complaints about the service could be directed. He can be
reached
at the above 800 number. Ask for extension 3385. According to
Lexis, the manager responsible is Bill Fister at extension 1364.

I called this morning and had my name removed. The representative will
need your name and social security number to remove you from
the list. I suggest that we inundate these people with requests to
remove
our info from the list and forward this e-mail to everyone we
know.
