How they confirm it
If they ignore you
This domain was previously tied to the 2024 breach (widely reported to include ~154M SSNs) under its former owner, Jerico Pictures. If your SSN was exposed in that breach, that is a separate matter from this site's current opt-out — pursue it via the FTC (identitytheft.gov) and any related class-action settlement rather than expecting this new operator's opt-out to resolve it.
Re-listing risk for this site: High — the dataset refreshes from public-record feeds, and the operating entity behind this domain has already changed hands once post-breach, so a removal today isn't guaranteed to persist through future ownership/database changes
