Scammers use some of the same things that law enforcement and private investigators use. I was in LE for 12 years. It took me all of two minutes but I can tell you your wife's name, what your mother did for a career, and where your father played minor league ball....where you work, your brother's names, etc. Its all there for scammers to steal from each and every one of us.
The internet is a treasure trove of info that scammers use every day. We've all (myself included) become too trusting of big brother and we play fast and loose with our info. An email address is not hard to find.
