Wired ran this article a few months ago, in conjunction with a story of a real life attempt to disappear. Writer Evan Ratliff spent almost a month in constant fear of getting caught as amateur and professional investigators hunted him down for a $5000 bounty.
You can read the entire story here. Pretty interesting read. Makes you wonder where he made mistakes. Or was it inevitable he would be caught through social networking investigators with the ability to update clues in an instant, as well as those willing to obtain info legally/illegally to help find you.
