Opposition Research Isn't Just for Politics Anymore
Political operatives know how easy it is to dig up someone’s phone number, old addresses, family connections, and workplace. The same tools used in campaigns and opposition research are now used by scammers.
One Redditor described a chilling experience: “A stranger called me, my ex, his girlfriend, my brother, my cousin, and my parents. He knew everyone’s names — even where I work.”
That’s because your data never disappears. Old jobs, past moves, and personal details are collected, archived, and sold by data brokers and people-search sites.
Incogni removes your personal data from these sites and keeps monitoring to make sure it stays gone.
