The problem might be with your service. Do you force users to sign up before you share any details with them?

I routinely provide fake info when a website that I think MIGHT be something I am interested in, but refuses to give me enough info to know for sure, until I give them a bunch of personal info. NO THANKS!

Sometimes I tell them my name is Bob. I live at 123 Main St. My email is [e-mail]. If that works to get me in the door, then I can look around to see if I want to become a real customer.

You are way too nice. Sometimes I sign up with [e-mail], address is 666 nunya business street, anonymousville, united states of handsoffmydata. If I can get their CEOs details or whatever, I sign up with that. Same for newsletter popups.

If they force an email verification, 9/10 times I just leave. For the 1/10 times I'll give a pseudonymous email, and if the service then proves to be useful I /might/ give more info. Usually if I'm actually buying something.

I'm glad I'm not the only one doing this
