List purchasing from Melissa data

[Account Closed]

So I just purchased my first list from Melissa data on absentee owners. I haven’t gone into depth reviewing the list yet but one thing I did notice that when I did a simple sort of the spreadsheet there were duplicates of the owners. it showed the exact same information. This to me seems a little scammy since you’re paying for the number of names you get. I sent an email to get this question answered but have not received a response yet. Has anyone had this problem? I think my time and money will be better spent if I just to the work myself. I’m just starting out and don’t have money to throw away.
