I've just started making use of the Genes reunited site and someone has asked me to open my tree because he has a matching name on his tree. He has told me absolutley nothing about how we might possibly be related but has asked me three times in two days to open my tree. I'm reluctant to let a complete stranger to know all this personal information. How do people usually come to the decision whether to let someone see their tree? Should I be concerned about anything like identity theft for example. Thanks - Julie
