Is SNAP snitching my contact info?

Today, I filed a complaint with the consumer protection bureau against SNAP- the federal food stamp program.  You may recall that in an earlier blog, I disclosed that in the interest to discover the truth about Gingrich's claims about the food stamp president, I applied. My worst fears have been realized.

I have reason to believe that the Feds have sold my contact information to a private firm that is inundating me with useless email spam offers. Hence I filed my complaint.

The emails come from such addresses as yourfundingchoice via bluehornet.com, or cardbestoffer@paydaycashshop.com. I receive daily offers from paydaycashshop. I get on the average 6 emails a day and 4 phone calls from Florida or Massachusetts. I also have been offered a free phone, free credit reports and a $25,000 loan for a new car. Of course none of it is free.

I wonder what will happen now.
