I reject the use of surveillance based authentication. I do not consent to my information being used in this way, nor it being stored in those surveillance databases in general. And I certainly do not want to confirm their records.
When confronted with it, I generally answer the questions without using any personal knowledge - either choosing none of the above or doing web searches for questions like what city is Foo St in. This works about half the time (demonstrating the uselessness of it), and the other half they can just send me a snail mail letter.
(Of course this isn't really applicable to the situation you found yourself in, and I could see myself making the same compromise under duress. But speaking generally)
