It has at least one taking up residence at Sunset Cemetery, so I wouldn't take too much from this site.

Try it a few times, you get different results each time. I was suspicious when it listed 15 felons near my mother's residence. She's only got three neighbors at all!

wow, I can't believe I was actually duped.. I'm always the person that figures out people are being scammed by an e-mail. How embarrassing.. I should've thought of that too when I got it from the person that is notorious for sending this garbage out.. Hopefully someone can delete the post so nobody else gets fooled. thanks for the info

No worries!
I think it's human nature to want to believe stuff that is useful in keeping us and our kids safe. I was hooked, until I looked up Mom's address!

I knew it--I know a convicted felon and I put his address in--and NOTHING!! He's lived there all his life, too, so it's not like they couldn't catch up with him--well, all his life minus 6 years.

Don't beat yourself up--did you know "gullible" is no longer in the dictionary?

I looked at the site and kept renewing it. I know of 2 felons who live near me and neither one is there. Then I noticed that there are 2 living at the zoo. One in Brackenridge Park. Someone put alot of work into fooling people. I also noticed that almost all of them are 70 to 75 years old. I guess you live longer if your a felon.
