As a sales person, how important is to talk soft?

Is it legal for a sales person to talk to other people (non sale or lender) to disclose your personal info?

  • we have been dealing with a sales person trying to buy a house and they have told us personal information like credit scores and late bills and so on about other buyers is this legal

  • Answer:

    If you have not signed something that allows them to or, in some situations, nominated someone to act on your behalf, and they disclose personal information to an outside source, that is a breach of your privacy, where I live, it carries a massive penalty including possible imprisonment the only exceptions are those who have power of attorney, legal advocates and government bodies such as the police and in some situations, the military

Yeah, it's wrong. However I suspect that you are being given fake info about non-existent wannabe purchasers in order to make you feel special/the house seem wanted. It's the same as a car dealer is always about to sell the car you just test drove to someone else-if only the other guy had the big money you have.

If the persons are named, then it is in very bad form if not illegal.

It is not legal to disclose personal and confidential records like medical . perhaps credit scores are public access ? seems rather unethical though.
