Odd, there are a couple wrong addresses for my name, a phone number I have never seen, emails I have never had and of the 47 ' relatives ' only four are accurate.
There is an ancient email address of mine and old phone number too.
I lived in a small building in Boston for years which had tenants coming and going so I wonder if any of those people are now associated with my name?

Now now, the extra 43 Christmas cards won't cost you but around $21 in postage.
Everyone needs "long lose relatives."
Then again if you want those 43 to stay lost..........

What I've discovered on these type of websites is that they're all what I'd call "Feeder Sites". Oh, they may begin with some basic list, though each and every time someone inputs data of someone they're trying to find, ~presto~ your data now becomes part of the database. It continues to build as more people search after giving them clues and information.
Classmates.com is a classic, and where I first got clued to this years and years ago. There was a lovely lady, a class behind me in high school, and I went to look for her. There was no data about her whatsoever there on Classmates... until I'd entered basic info about her. After leaving the website I soon got curious, went back within minutes and ~presto~ she was now listed in the proper class, age, full name, etc. Then's the interesting part: Classmates.com then appeared to have information about her, wanted money naturally to view their data about her, when all of the data had been submitted by me. Follow? Think: Personal Data/Personal Information. There's always a catch.
Perhaps this website has been up and running long enough to gain loads of info from people's inputs. Claymoore/OP states, "If there is a catch, I haven't found it." Seems to me the catch to this one is that someone's information could be used against them by less-than-honest people... and even against yourself. Have learned to not trust any of them initially more than 5%.

I looked myself up. It listed only two emails addresses for me - neither of which I ever use. Both of which I'd forgotten I even had. Some of the "relatives" were relatives of my spouse's son's ex-wife, so it's a mixed bag.
it doesn't have my phone number listed or any emails that i have used. They only had my addresses, only three of which were correct. One of the addresses were off. They listed a house down the street from me as an address that I have used or is using, unless I have a house that I secretly didn't know I have! I better tell the people who are living in my house to get the hell out.
No good. I have an apostrophe in my surname which seems to freeze the system. If I omit the apostrophe then it tells me I don't exist.
