The people at Yellowbot did eventually contact me and have my personal information removed from their site, as well apparently from the business listing they use to populate the site. Although it was a frustrating few days wait, they we’re apologetic and accommodating in the end and it seems may make an effort to improve communications with users in the future about any errant listings.

It lists people’s personal information as “businesses”. They just scrape other site’s listings or have purchased spam lists or mailing lists. Nothing but a lame attempt to rip people off. They also don’t respond to any requests to have personal information removed from the site. Avoid this website.

I just tried the search for french fries in San Francisco on YellowBot and it already seems to work pretty well. :-)

– ask
