Basic Guide On How To Data Mine && Protecting Yourself From Being Data Mined
By NurBo` NurBo.Guru [ at ] gmail.com
////////////////////////////////////
#Introduction:
So you want to find some information out on some guy talking shit about you or he just over stayed his welcome? Then this tutorial will show you how to find some information out about a person. So I hope everybody enjoys this tutorial.
#Google:
A good first start is the all mighty Google some people think it can't help you at all but it will be a big factor in the Data Mine. What you first want to do is grab the guys alias and Google it. If it comes up with to many results as in other people use that name as we'll then now you want to try some different information. Try to get his email address aim,yahoo,msn what ever. Then google that ex. pdphoenix3@hotmail.com just Google that and this will show up websites/forums that person has signed up in with that email address. So let's say he has a yahoo account or a Stickam account, then you want to look for pictures of him. Or some more information about him zip codes,other addition information or look through his forum post. And see if he says anything about his Real life, were he lives or other things like that.
#Myspace:
Now most people will say myspace wtf?? We'll if you have that persons email address then try it out on the Myspace search. Goto Search>Then click the Email button>Then put there email address in there. And if they have a myspace then bam if there picture from other sites look just like his Myspace picture then you know. Thats him! So then check out his friends most of his top 8 and see were all of there locations are. Let's say all of there location information says Texas Fuck you city or something like that. And half of the people on his top 8 has that, then you know he's from there (the girls myspaces are the best to scope out for school information and location information) Another cool way I thought of is let's say he has his real name on his Myspace you can try sending one of the girls on his top 8 a message saying "Yo home dog yo b do you got Jasons number b I was suppose to meet him at the mall b you feel me b if you have his cell phone or house phone can you please send it to me b thanks b" And most of the time they will send you there phone number so now you have there Picture,Phone Number, and General Location.
#Messengers:
Another way to find out some information is if you have one of there messenger info like there aim account or something. Then you can google there Aim name pdphoenix3 and half the time it will come up with something another forum another website then start looking for more information on the guy.
#Ip:
A good way to make sure you know there location is to get there ip address how can you get this if you only talk to them on aim or myspace??? We'll you make a quick free forum and you make the domain something that there interested in say cars. So name the forum cars.freeforum.com then you login to the forum as admin and then watch out for users ip address. So then you message your friend over aim saying "hey man I just made this new car forum wanna admin or mod on it at least tell me what you think about it. cars.freeforum.com check it real quick" Ok most of the time he will goto it then refresh the logs and bam you have his ip address. This is a trick I usually do =P so now that you have his ip address its time to whois it. Here is a good website
http://www.ip-adress.com/
This will tell you his state,city,country etc then now you know his location for sure now you have the myspace proof and now this.
#Conclusion:
So now you have a picture of him his phone number his email address and other messenger information, and now you his location. We'll if you want to go deeper check out some of these websites search his real name etc

Protecting Yourself From Being Data Mined
/////////////////////////////////////////
#Part One-Exploring Yourself:
Sounds a little queer but one of the first things you can do is do some research on your self. So if there is any type of information about you on the internet. You will find it and destroy it Embarrassed search your real name, alias etc.
#Tips:
1)Make sure you never I mean never! put your whole name on the net. Anthony Meheme Jackson see that was a mistake putting my name on the net now if somebody hates me they already have some basic Intel on me.
2)Phone Number:
Never give your phone number out to anybody I don't care if you think your close. I remember this one story that made me rofl! This kid I won't say his name he gave his phone number to his friend because they where in the same security group. Then his friend pissed off somebody from the g00ns, so they started saying they would get his mom fired blah blah blah you know saying shit that would make a skid shit his pants. So then he fessed up and gave one of the g00ns members his phone number just like that now you'll have people calling your house like its a Chinese sweat shop.
3)Emails:
When ever you sign up on a forum/website try to use the function that will hide your email address so when people search it on Google they won't find anything. So its always good to do that.
4)Locations:
We'll for me I really don't care if people know I live in California just make sure they don't know your city :p. Because if I knew some kids location I would only be searching that city's locations/names/phone numbers. Now if your on some kids website that you know he hates you make sure you surf there website via pr0xy/vpn so you have several different ip address on there website.
5)Myspace:
If you do own a Myspace account as do I call me a "Myspace fag" what ever I only use my Myspace to talk to my old friends. Any ways make sure your profile is private so people have to add you to see your profile. Or if you want to make it public hide your friends. Because if your Myspace profile is "public" then the person that is looking for your Intel can look at all of your friends and see where they live what school they goto etc. So watch out for that to this includes BeBo etc. And make sure you don't have your whole name on your Myspace first name is cool and watch your comments as we'll because one of your friends might post your whole name as a comment.
6)Registering a Domain:
Make sure that you uses private registration feature, it's gonna cost you a few more bucks but it's really worth it cuz anyone can easily whois your domain and know all your private information "full name, phone numbers, fax, address …. etc"
7)Paying for Stuff Online:
Make sure that you use disposable credit cards and the same via PayPal because they can be easily tracked, just buy whateva you want and throw them away and for every purchase use a different credit card or PayPal account
#Fake Information:
This is a very good thing too do especially if your on alot of websites/forums when ever I make a new email or something I use my real first name (or do I) but a fake Last Name or fake Middle name so when the person does try to get some intel on you theres so much fake shez around him he won't know which one to pick.
#Conclusion:
Just make sure you watch out what you put on the net you may think its nothing but with your whole name some hackers can do alot with it and always remember small clues can easily add up to answers when put together like a jigsaw. One of the quotes I like is "Don't put anything on the net that you wouldn't share in public" I think thats the quote.

In opposition to mosh over here I wouldn't give out my location, but in all honesty I can say its more out of paranoia then actual fact-based fear (I blame bad tv :P). Your article was well written however, I learned something, which makes it a success in my eyes. Just watch how you start the article, I almost didn't read it after I read your intro about "some guy talking shit"…thought it might be a "get back at your annoying neighbor - a tale of two skidies" style, but I'm glad I stuck with it. Good job.

I rate this article poor.
This is not Data mining
Data mining is the act of looking through data for previously unseen patterns/relationships which someone wouldn't have noticed.
Don't believe me? http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=define%3A+Data+mining
The article above is about cyber stalking / crude forms of phishing / Common Sense.

@ mosh, Your name might not mean much by it's self, but it cuts out thousands of potential people if someone is tracking you. A name and age/location/ or phone #, are likely to lead straight to you. And you are connected to many other things like your brother and your parents divorce records. You might not have anything personal posted about you, but your brother might. likewise, divorse records are very revieling. And sorry if I sound like a stocker. @cubeman372, the same statistics formulas can be used by a computer program. Same thing, bones to bones.

And at the "exploring yourself" thing, You don't "find" information about yourself. You know what has been submited, and you know who has access to it, who has a copy of it, who reads it, & who distributes it. Rated poor, although I think HBH has needed to read something about privacy for a while.

Grabbing numbers of Myspace? Googling someone's email?
These are simply forms of finding out information, information which is readily available.
Data Mining implies the data is not in the public domain.
Data mining isn't purely finding information on person. But Data mining could be used to find information on a person. Data Mining takes is large scale. Tracking someone down is totally different.

This is not Data Mining. This is simply doing research. Nothing more. Data Mining would be finding information not publicly available (IE FBI records) and the likes. Sorry but this is not what it states it to be. :angry:

ok look this is public data mining and don't say "its f^cking easy to get intel" its not that easy. But if you keep on complaining about the article then you should make some tutorial about real data mining
