ContactOut Reviews 121

How is this legal? They steal your online data and they sell it to potential customers. TOTAL SCAM, How can this be legal?

The fact that this is legal or some what allowed is conserning nothing else than theft. The fact that you have to opt out not to have your data displayed publicly should be illegal. What about Opting in to use my data!!!???

They put my personal data online without my consent!!
They ignore requests to remove my information. Even after asking to remove it multiple times.

I did not gave contactout permission to post mu contacts name and other professional info in their website. They publicly post it without consent. I hope US and Singapore where they office is will be serious look at this company how they expose people personal data without consent.

I have just had a call on my PERSONAL mobile from a client of this company, because Full Enrich steals your data, and just gives it to **anyone who asks** - as per their business model (I can back this up with emails, and recorded phone call). Who cares for your personal safety? Stalker? Jilted ex-lover? You’re in danger! They claim they take your data from LinkedIn, however, my personal mobile is not (and never has been) on there. Their client kindly provided me with all of Full Enrich’s details and the data he received of mine, knowing the severity of the problem I faced. To add my number is also listed with the TPS for over a decade. You're breaking the law! Due to this I found their business partners (via Incogni) who are also selling my data - ContactOut, who have been closed all the holidays, then said “sorry but it takes a few days” despite being advised of the serious security risk they were posing to me, then STILL left my details up in the Google search cache!! These people are incompetent beyond belief. Reported also to the ICO. Incompetent and do not follow GDPR law, and rely on YOU not knowing the law.

Every time I connect my email to contactout for outreach, my emails get labeled as spam after a while, it happened to me maybe more than 5 times already. They also can't help you once you have an issue. It's a very poor service

This organisation scrapes your personal data and then repackages it for sale.

Do NOT use this company. They have publicised my data without my consent and have so far given wholly unhelpful responses to my numerous emails, and have not removed my data despite my continual asking. I will next be reporting them to the relevant data-breach company. Furious. This company actually endangers individuals' safety. Avoid. Also beware your LinkedIn profile might have your personal information taken by ContactOut.com so I recommend deleting that too.

ContactOut got hold of my data somewhere and made it publicly available. I’m quite sure I never publicly exposed any of that data, other than my name. I had it removed from Google and filed a complaint with our local GDPR authority, as well as a removal request with ContactOut themselves.

Big scam. Like many others here my data was also taken from LinkedIn and pasted on their lousy website.

They stole my info from LinkedIn that available only for LinkedIn users and published it on their website. So anyone who's searching me through Google can see my work history and other information.
To delete this information I had to register on their website and give them my information again. Is it even legal? Why should I spend my time on it if I didn't allow to use and sell my info?

Publie des données personnelles sana aucun consentement. Je vais saisir immédiatement la CNIL.

Have stolen my personal information and posted it online. I have never given consent to this service to display my private information

I have never given them a permission to store my data.

They have illigally displayed my contact details and have obviosuly scraped them. Absolute disgrace of a company.

Communique les données personnelles erronées Sauf le numéro de téléphone sur Google … et donc visibles du monde entier !!!
Sans consentement et sans respect RGPD

Disgrace of a company, I’ve instructed lawyers.

Bad customer support: They don't reply even after several attempts to reach out to support. It's very hard to reach out to someone.

No API: Can't use for automations.

Filtration: Its sooo bad. You will waste hours finding prospects. Use another platform instead.

This company somehow illegally scraped my LinkedIn and published all my information without my consent. And they expect people to subscribe to have the information removed. That sounds like ransomware to me. They need to be held accountable.
