Looking at the future

This blog was started over 10 years ago, back when searching for these kinds of topics were very common. It probably still is common for web users to search for background checks, phone numbers, and other details about people and their property. Soon, there may be an expansion of topics that wouldn't have been expected to be on here in the past. Stay tuned, and if you're a human then leave a comment and tell me what you think.

  Was this post worth your time? Please comment below, I'd like to hear from you. May 2022 update This information is of interest only, and doesn't relate directly to reverse phone/email services. You can now request from Google for your personal information to get removed from search results. Of course, this would obviously involve giving it all to them to begin with, but do you really think that they don't have it all to begin with?

Credit scores, reports, and ID theft protection

In this section we’ll be exploring sites to look up credit reports and scores. Free sites are ideal for most people if they’re looking up their own so we’ll cover most of that before anything else. Keep in mind that you can’t legally look up someone else’s credit report, or credit score without proper authorization. Now, how about a site that lets you check your credit score for free without even needing a credit card? Yes, you heard me correctly. A site which lets you do all that, and more, does exist.  Here, it's possible to get a completely free credit score . It can also help protect you from identity theft as well. Here are a few facts to know about id theft. Identity theft can be thwarted by artificial intelligence analysis of a user's mouse movements 95% of the time . This is because unexpected security questions take more time for the liars to think about and respond to. A large percentage of id theft is through someone you know, and children are especially vulner

Does Inteligator work?

The short answer: yes, it does. Inteligator Free Trial Click here August, 2021 I'm not sure how relevant this service is or was to begin with. I think it's a pretty random online background check service for casual use. They were obviously never as big as a site like Been Verified. After I search Reddit to check for mentions of this service, there didn't seem to be any results. When I searched Twitter to also see what people were saying, all tweets about it were ads, and the most recent one dates all the way back to 2018. The service might still work as well as it did when I reviewed it all the way back in 2012. A website called SiteJabber had mostly unfavorable reviews of Inteligator. Before I finish this post, I'd like to point out that I noticed a site called Intelligator.org which is just an extra 'L' in the name. This does sound like something you could get sued for if you're offering the same kind of service, but maybe they found a workaround,

Is Been Verified a good service?

Image
If you're interested in checking someone's background for criminal records for free online, you're not going to find a professional one. What you'll find is companies who let members search their databases, which use information that's publicly available (yet scattered all over the place.) Their goal is to be as accurate as possible about people's details which include, but aren't limited to a person's former and current address, criminal history and court records (may include records of divorce and marriage, judgments, etc). In this post, I'll show a review of Been Verified which does offer a free trial. Your info and searches are kept safe, people you search for won't know what you were up to, according to the company (and most if not 100% of their competitors, as far as I'm aware). As I'm updating the text of this post in the late summer of 2021, I can't remember the last time I've seen an advertisement from this company. In

Where is a truly free reverse cell phone look up?

Before I answer this question, I need to know something else from you. Does a free trial qualify as "free"? With that, you would have to have your credit card number ready so that you can't re-use the trial over and over again. Cell phone numbers are currently not published in the USA, so data brokers have found a way to make money. They pull information from as many free sources as possible and put it into their own database, which is searchable by members only. It costs money to have such a site running, so it wouldn't make much sense for this kind of a website to be free. Watch this video to have an idea of what the results are for a reverse phone lookup.  You could speed up the playback of the video too, since it's pretty mildly helpful and not very interesting, if you even bother to watch it.
