From the Bucks County (PA) Department of Consumer Protection:

Q: I've been getting solicitations in the mail for refinancing and other financial services. I don't give out my personal information and I always opt out of these type of notices. So how did I get on this marketing list?

A: They may have gotten your information from one of the credit bureaus. They sell your personal information, including how much your home is worth and how much you owe on it. This is probably why marketers know so much about you. Some consumer advocates have been trying to stop this practice and the issue may go to court. Our suggestion is to contact the credit bureaus and opt out of these programs. Call (888) 567-8688 or go to www.optoutprescreen.com. You'll need to provide your Social Security number and other personal information. This should stop the solicitations.
