Probably someone used your e-mail account as their contacts...
and your name too...
I think that's hard to eliminate unless you contact the site which where it is included...
But that's 50/50 basis...

I don't think there's anything you can do because those results are from Google's database. How does this affect you anyway? It's only similar to your name but it's NOT your name, right?

There is really no way to remove something off the search results unless Google puts their finger in it. You can however move those negative items down. If you think that it will be worth it, you can hire a Negative Publicity Removal firm. Or you can do it yourself.

This is how it works:
You type in your name and you see which results are positive and which are negative. Now you can choose to optimize those positive results or you can create new pages yourself.
You can create blog post, forum post, social media accounts. Anything to get your name out. Then all you have to do is get those pages to rank high. This will call for good content and links.

Once again you can hire a negative publicity removal firm to do this, if you don't think you can.

Hope this was helpful.

Thanks Lyka_01

Depending on the difficulty of the name this project can become a very time consuming and perhaps a costly job.

If your name has a lot of competition then you're in trouble. That means it will take a lot of work to build pages and get them to rank. But remember you can use existing positive pages and optimize the (they may be easier and faster to optimize as they have been online longer and are seasoned.).

for example if your name is Jon Smith, you have quite a campaign on your hands. but at the same time you shouldn't worry because that name is so common that no one can expect that all the Jon Smiths that come up on Google are you.

But if your name is like mine, you shouldn't have any problems getting some good publicity up there.

But in reality its a very doable job. You just have to be consistent and work at it.

I think that is th best way to do...
Optimized the name...
Because if you contact the website containing your name...
that's quite tough...

Contacting the site should be your first attempt to rid the negative publicity off the internet. Who knows maybe the webmaster will feel for you and remove it. IT WOULDN'T HURT TO TRY.

If that fails then you can invest your time and effort into pushing the negative items down.

But you should first try to contact the site admin to see if there is anyway they can assist you.

Its not bad to try...
but I think that's a 50/50 chances...
its hard to to prove to them that...
that name is you probably...because your IP is different...
and I don't think that they will require you a birth certificate for that...LOL...
Anyway that idea will not give a big assurance...
but not bad to try...("
