-==== Public Records Websites ==== 
-Public record websites periodically scrape social media networks, archived websites, public records databases, and other sources of potentially useful data points and present their findings online. Information captured by these websites may include names, birth dates, current and/or previous addresses, names of relatives and associates, social media profile photographs, archived social media information, work locations, job titles, salaries, real estate records, telephone numbers,and more. Though these websites can serve legitimate purposes such as aiding law enforcement or employers in background investigations, they are also attractive to threat actors seeking to gather information about targets to use in doxing campaigns or other nefarious activity.
