I call it the fluke factor, if you have no control over something then the fluke factor comes into play. The reality of life is you have zero control over the people you meet or the situations you walk into. I am on the road a lot, have met childhood friends in the remotest of places as well as friends of friends in places like Paris and Dublin. Americans overseas tend to gravitate towards each other like teenagers in a mall on Friday night. It is difficult to avoid other Americans when you are in a foreign country. New identities to me are always a nefarious situation; it is a red light shinning, blaring trouble. There are many ways to disappear or be more private in this world, even in the world of DNA, fingerprints and big brother. New identities usually have the word felony standing behind them; my advice is to get a good lawyer if you feel the need for a new identity. If you are looking to disappear, leave life behind, or just start over and not have people from your past find you, there is hope with a little misinformation, disinformation and reformation it can be done. Some people believe that they can just pick up and go, the problem with that is if someone is looking for you, they have your whole past and present to search. They have your family and friends to contact, store memberships, airlines, car rentals, banks, credit card statements, subscriptions, library records, phone records, emails, IP addresses, the list is as long as the person’s imagination and budget. A little homework before you go, see my three steps to disappearing. The Three Keys To Disappearing Mis-Information This is the act of taking all the information that exists about you and changing it. Look in your wallet besides the credit cards. Any one of the membership cards you have can assist a skip tracer in finding you. Bookstores, they know your hopes, your dreams, fears and medical problems; they keep track of every book you buy if you have a discount card. By investigating your name and zip code through your frequent flyer account, someone can very quickly learn all about your travel records. Car rental companies list your account by phone number: this can tell us where you last rented a car. The list goes on and on. What you need to do is to go into your account and deviate your name, then deviate your address, then deviate your phone number. Repeat the process until it is a confusing mess to the potential tracer. Disinformation This is the act of taking your personal information and creating false leads. We have you fly to Vegas, rent a car and actually got to a realtor and apply for an apartment. We know that the realtor will run a credit report on you. We know that the person looking for you will run your credit record and see an inquiry from a company in Vegas and start looking there. Your goal is to eat up his budget. Open a checking account at a local bank. If you notice that almost every bank you walk into uses a service that will list any overdrafts you make at the bank, then be careful because that very same service can also list where you applied for a bank account. A very crafty investigator will locate your inquiry in Vegas and search there. It is against the law for people to pretext banks, however, some people still do. With your new account, you leave a balance of $300.00; you recieve an ATM card. That ATM card is turned over to me and when some of my clients or friends go traveling, I give them the card. They make an ATM withdrawal in London. The person who is now checking that account is looking for you in London. Three months later a withdrawal from your account is made in Omaha. Once again, we eat up the budget of the individual who is searching for you. Reformation This is the act that takes you from here to there with no leads. Reformation depends on you and how much money you have. We create forms of contact with people you need to stay close to. Contact is typically maintained through prepaid cell phones or prepaid calling cards. Misinformation, disinformation and reformation equal MDR, which also means, money, disappearing and relaxing. My advice, take it slow and do your homework. Every mistake leads to someone finding you. The following are Frank's previous articles for the magazine:
