Sharing My Name and Address

I've been a Motorhome subscriber for many years

Just received some junk mail from CW

Evidently Motorhome Mag passed out my address

Why???

    It is amazing the information people freely share. The OP registered with this forum and gave their full name, city, and state. With that information it is easy to find their street address, phone number, family members, and so on.

    This forum and all the other portals are owned by everything Affinity or rather what they changed their name to all things GS. Don't put your name on ANY thing related to them.

    also go to your preferences and UNCHECK all those boxes on the bottom that allows them to give out/sell your email and name to.
  • I always get GS and CW junk mail. It is part of being a GS member (although I hear you can opt out.)

  • Because Motorhome is owned by Good Sam Enterprises, just like the GS Club, Camping World, Trailer Life, this web site and the rest. They view it as "keeping it within the company". So your info wasn't sold. Surprised that you are blaming Motorhome specifically, as your sig. says you are a GS member - could have come from that, too!
