I love the “State how much you are willing to pay for duplication fees if any are assessed.”
Ummmm, isn’t a portion of my paycheck confiscated every other week to pay for them to keep that file…you would think that I would be doing them a favor and should therefore be charging them.
rumor has it a buncha people did that back in the 1990’s, only to get back a one page file consisting solely of their FOIA request.
i never requested my FBI file, but i did file a FOIA request for my INS papers back when they were still called the INS. i got back some seriously bad (fourth or fifth generation by the looks of them) photocopies of most of what i would have expected to be in my file… and about half again as much stuff that were about some whole different person entirely.
I know I’ve got one, because of jobs I’ve held previously. These days I’d prefer to not poke the sleeping bear. I like my life as nice and quiet as it is at this time. No need to stand up and wave my arms in the air.
Get your FBI files, your CIA files, your Intelligence files (if you ever held a clearance), your military police files (if ever involved in any shape or fashion with the military, even as a civilian), get your federal DNA files (again if ever involved with the military or othe federal agencies), and get your federal drivers license database files (if you’ve ever had a drivers license). Addresses to write to can be googled. Does it work? Yes, my copies are in my file cabinet as I type.
No need. I know they already know all about me. My file would be rather large. Christ, they even talked to people from the time I was a baby who had known me or had contact. Dumb bastards!

I bet I actually have an entry somewhere, I worked for a company that got shut down by the FBI once upon a time.
The lead investigator recognized my laugh from the phone taps!
I wonder…

Mine would probably say only, “recently requested a copy of his own FBI file”.
Talk about generating noise in their file-database!

I’ll pass.
