If you are an adult citizen of the United States, or if, after 1996, you have ever applied for credit, you have an FBI File. At that time the FBI spent millions with ChoicePoint Inc. to buy information on virtually all adults living in the United States with any credit or public record history. ChoicePoint, formerly a part of credit-reporting company Equifax, is a database compiler selling personal information for a profit.
Using your Social Security number as the key identifier, ChoicePoint compiles dossiers on citizens from credit reports, and from public records such as court files, property tax documents, business incorporation filings, and professional license applications. ChoicePoint aggregates this up-to-date information and sells it to the FBI. Following below is a list of the other most common areas of collection:

So you won't be flagged as a person of interest if you actually request the file on yourself? Because I'm definitely interested but I don't want to worry about the SWAT team breaking down my door.
I have nothing to worry about, as far as I know. But I do want to write the letter.
No you will not be flagged. It is a big urban legend that by requesting your file you will be flagged. Trust me the FBI have more important things to do than worry about why you are requesting this.
