ate all the Oreos posted:my friend had a promotion held up for two months because the background check agency used thought he had an arrest record because... someone in a completely different state, 15 years older than him and with a different first AND last name came up somehow. they still required him to appeal it and gather evidence that no, he hadn't ever lived in the midwest and definitely didn't time travel and yes this is in fact his name it is the one that was written on the loving form that you were supposed to check There's not always a charge at least. when I filled out a background check form for my last job there was a checkbox to get a free copy. i think it was the law in Minnesota it was extremely cursory - just asking the previous states I lived in if I was a felon

https://twitter.com/ggreeneva/status/915305949228879872 well, it is a bit harder to do fraud when all your personal data is publicly accessible i guess? can't wait for the writeup once they lose all rather than just most taxpayer info.
