Blocked Emails

Blocked emails prevent reports from being processed for candidates with specific email addresses. If a report is created for one of your blocked emails, it will automatically be canceled right away. This feature must be enabled for your account.
Addresses are normalized before they are stored - surrounding whitespace is removed and the address is lowercased - so the value you receive back may differ in case from the one you submitted.
Unlike blocked SSNs, blocked emails are returned in plaintext rather than masked.
Use this resource to manage the list of blocked emails for your account.
