Years ago I sued an offshore company. The owner spent a lot of money setting it up.

With 3 phone calls I found his home address in California and had him personally served.

When he walked into his deposition, all he could do was ask was how did I find him. He was really pissed. This is a small industry and if anyone knows you, especially your competitors, they will usually rat you out if paid enough money for information.
