I'm really scared, should I be?

I am a fairly new driver, (2 years), and was looking at various options as far as insurance goes online. I came across a website that offered free quotes (Carinsurancequote.com). I filled out the information then later read that it was a scam.

>Confirm/deny that it is, in fact, a scam

>Tell me how much trouble I am in. I gave them my phone number, birthday, email address, mailing address, full name -- However, I refused to give my SSN.

Thanks, I'm pretty worked up about this. Please respond ASAP.

    You will probably just get a bunch of junk mail. The information you gave is safe. The information you gave is standard information that is on most peoples Facebook pages. You didn't give any credit card numbers or mother madden name so you're fine.
