Can I Find A Person By Name Only? Find A Person Online Like I Did

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

I found an old friend online and all I had was a name

Find someone online now

How many times have you wished that you could just go online, type in someone’s name and out pops the answer to where they live? Can I find a person by name only? Yes it’s possible and I’ve done it and I’m going to tell you how I did it.

It might surprise you to learn that it’s now possible for you to go online and find most people that you look for, even if you only have their name to go on. Yes I didn’t believe it at first either but I found a web site that looked very promising. This site allows you to do an unlimited number of background searches using as many names as you want to and it doesn’t cost you any more than your entry fee. When you can do as many searches as you want to in a database containing more than a billion public records you can find out a lot of information.

I wanted to find an old friend

I had a friend who was very close to me but we had not been in touch with each other for years. Why not? I’ve no idea – it just happened. I had a feeling that they had moved so all I had to go on to find this person was a name. I wasn’t even sure which state they were in. Anyway this public records web site offers a good money back guarantee if you aren’t satisfied with the service so I thought that I would give it a try. After all, what did I have to lose?

The site is clean, fast and easy to manage and I soon had a list of potentials on my screen from doing a background search for the persons name. After I had reduced the list by rejecting anyone older or younger than I thought my friend was and by guessing the states that they might be living in I was down to a manageable list of possible matches.

Find a person using background checks

One by one I pulled up detailed background information on all of the short list and if there was a phone number I called it. My plan was to call everyone with a listed telephone number then write to the rest. I didn’t need to write any letters at all, as it turns out, because I found my friend in what seemed like no time at all.

Can I find a person by name only? Well I did as you can see and I’ve found several more people since that first time. I haven’t yet found absolutely everyone that I’ve looked for and some take a bit more work than others but if I can do it then so can you. Start searching for people now.

Absolutely Free Background Checks | How To Have Fun Finding Free Information About People

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Free public records web site offers membership with unlimited background checks

Background check magnifier image

Get background checks on people

When you sign up for a public records membership web site offering unlimited absolutely free background checks for members you can have a lot of fun finding free information on people. I’ve just tried it. I only wanted to find an old friend but I’ve managed to get an amazing amount of information on a lot of other people including friends, neighbors, hired help and some of my dates. I’m having great fun and I think that you should try it too.

Most of the web sites that allow you to search free public records charge you for each and every search that you perform. When I went looking for my old friend that I hadn’t seen in years I knew that I was most likely going to have to do a lot of searches before I found him. He has a common name and I wasn’t sure which state he’s living in. I knew that a nationwide search would give me a lot of people to choose from so I was probably going to get it wrong a few times.

Don’t pay for every search – use a membership site with free background checks

Paying for every search didn’t sound like a good idea because I thought that it would cost me a fortune to find this guy. That’s not much fun so I looked to see if I could find a web site that would give me unlimited searches for my money and I found one.

I found a public records web site that offers unlimited absolutely free background checks and other free searches to it’s members. All you pay is a small monthly subscription and you can do as many free people information searches as you want to. It’s perfect for my needs and I intend to keep my membership for a long time. It makes it so much fun to do background checks on people I wouldn’t want to be without it now. It’s like having a free person finder information at your fingertips.

How to find old friends

The first thing I did was enter the name of my old friend into the people finder and background search utilities. As I suspected, I had to do more than one search before I found the right person. I found that using the correct name helps too. I had no luck with first name of Joe but Joseph worked a lot better. By examining the listings of several possible people I eventually found my man. In fact I found out a lot about him including an address, names of relatives and neighbors, a link to a google map and a telephone number. It was the telephone number that gave me the final confirmation because I was able to give him a call and talk to him.

Don’t stop there – Do free background checks on everyone

I did a lot of searches but it didn’t take long and it was great that I actually was able to find my friend. I hadn’t seen him for years. But that’s not all I found – I decided to look up some of his relatives that I remembered him talking about and even his neighbors who were listed in the background check. I bet I know more about his neighbors than he does now.

I didn’t stop there though and you don’t have to either. You can look up other people that you’ve lost touch with. Check out your neighbors and your latest date. I looked up lots of people and I was hooked. I must have done a hundred free background searches and it didn’t cost me any extra money.

Now you can make a point of checking out every one of your dates before you go out with them. Do background checks on anyone that you hire to work on your house or look after your children or anyone that moves into your neighborhood.

How To Locate People: Find Someone On The Internet Right Now Not Tomorrow

Don’t put it off – Locate lost friends today before it’s too late

Look up people in public records

It’s all too easy for you to breeze through life putting things off instead of taking action right now. I know because I’m one of those people who would rather take it easy than take the time to do the things that I know I should. If you have old friends or relatives that you’ve lost contact with then don’t be one of those people, find someone on the Internet today and stop putting things off until tomorrow.

It sometimes takes a dramatic event to give you the wake up call that you need to get motivated to do the important things in life. The best example of this that I can give you is my daughter who was conceived just a few days after my father died. We had been planning it for months but never wanted to do it at the time. We were putting it off until… well I don’t know what we were putting it off for. When my father left us at a relatively young age it reminded us of how fragile life is and how we should be living for today and not for tomorrow. Just in case tomorrow doesn’t go as planned.

A wake up call for all the world

Events like a death in the family usually affect a few people and even fewer take up the wake up call and go for action. Sometimes an event will affect millions of people across the world all at the same time. For instance, when a well known celebrity dies before their time. When Elvis died early it literally changed the lives of millions of people on the planet. More recently the untimely deaths of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson. I know that they’ve made me stop and think about what I do and what I don’t do and I expect it’s had a similar effect on many other people.

These celebrity deaths caused a huge spike of traffic on the Internet which almost brought down some of the biggest servers. Were all of these extra people on the Internet searching for information about their idols? I think that the majority were doing just that but I also think that there were many who had just realized that anyone can die at any time and if they don’t find those long lost friends now then it could be too late. Some of these people were using the Internet to search for information and locate people.

How to locate people and find someone using the Internet

locating people has never been as easy as it is today. By taking advantage of the information now available to you on the Internet it’s possible to track down almost anyone. Some people can be found very quickly and some will need you to do a little detective work. Even the detective work is now easy when you can do an unlimited number of searches whenever you want to.

How to get good value for money background checks on people

Do a background check on someone

Have you tried to get an absolutely free background check done on someone but could’t find a totally cost free public records source? Yes I’ve tried and failed too. There are plenty of web sites that offer background checks and some of them even claim to be free. When it comes down to it though, you find that you have to pay something to get any useful information about people. I settled for a solution that provides great value for money and this is how you can do it too.

Most of the web sites that offer background checks on people ask you to pay for every search that you perform. The way that they typically work is that you pay a fee to register on the site. The fee that you pay can then be used towards the records searches that the site offers. The amount that you paid determines how many searches that you can do and when it’s all gone you have to pay more.

The problem with most public records web sites

Paying for every background check that you do can get very expensive as I found when I tried to use one to check out a new friend of mine. The biggest problem that I found was that you often need to do more than just the one search to find all the information you need. First you have to find the right person to look up. This isn’t easy if they have a common name or if you don’t know which state they live in.

When you’ve found the right person and done a full background check on them you will most likely want to do an arrest records search to check for arrests and arrest warrants. You will also want to check for any criminal records and sex offenders records too. If you don’t know where they are or you haven’t seen them for some time then you might want to do a prison inmate search. If you are planning to date this person then you could be interested in the marriage records search. If you are just curious then you might be interested in all of these searches.

How to have fun looking up background information on people

Performing most of these searches will cost money and reduce your account balance. This can get expensive and will become an obstacle to you getting all the information you want. Looking up background information on people can be fun but it’s no fun if you have to pay for every search that you do.

So how can you get information about people in a way that’s good value for money and makes it fun to do? The answer is to use a public records database web site that offers unlimited free background checks to members. While you are a member you can do as many searches as necessary on as many people you want and you can do it at your convenience any time you want.

Until you’ve tried it for yourself you won’t believe how much fun it can be when you can do as many absolutely free background checks and criminal records searches and any other searches and checks that you want. It’s like getting a telephone service that gives you unlimited call time for one small monthly fee. How many calls would you make if it didn’t matter how long you spend on the phone?

Criminal Public Records Free And Almost Free Background Checks

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Get to know someone by doing a background check on them

Criminal records and background checks

What do you do if you get a funny feeling about someone that you want to have a relationship with or that you want to hire for work or get close to in some other way? Do you like this person and want to get to know them better but you think that something isn’t quite right? Doing a background check on this person and checking their criminal records is a very good way to find out about someone even when you think everything is ok. It could save you from making a big mistake.

Free criminal records check – is it a myth?

If you go to Google or one of the other search engines and enter something like “criminal public records free” you will find that you get a lot of results to choose from but will any of the links give you the information that you are looking for? If it does, will it give you the information without asking you for money?

I decided to test this out. I wanted to find out if you could do a free background check on someone. It could be the new love in your life or just someone that you want to get close to. You could be completely charmed by this person and want to turn it into something more serious.

I could see from my Google search that there were a lot of web sites claiming to let you search for criminal records for free so I tried some of them.

Criminal public records free – Not quite

I tried quite a few of the links that claimed free public records before I realized that you will most likely need to pay a small fee to get the information you want despite what the headlines say. Some of the links took me to government web sites that were difficult to use and at best only allowed state wide searches and provided limited information.

Some sites claim to be free but ask you for money before showing you any meaningful results. I suppose that they get away with it because the information is freely available but the charge for making it available is not free.

The best criminal records web site I could find

The best site that I could find allows you to search for someone before making any payment but it only indicated that there was some information in the database on that person. It will give you background checks and criminal records after you pay the fee.

I was searching for information on someone that I knew and I thought that anything that I could find might be useful. If you are about to get into a serious relationship with someone or hiring them to do work for you then a background check report would be useful to you too.

The web site that I used has a no-nonsense guarantee so you can always get a refund if you aren’t satisfied with the results. I gave it a try and I was amazed by what you can find out about someone on this site. I’m not going to tell you what I found out about my friend but I was very surprised by some of the things in the report. You may not be able to find criminal public records free but this is the next best thing.

Reverse Telephone Directory Locate A Person With A Telephone Number

Using a reverse telephone directory to find someone by phone number

Locate someone by telephone number

Do you keep coming across a phone number that you don’t recognize? Do you suspect that the numbers on your phone bill belong to the person that your spouse is cheating on you with? Are you worried about the numbers in your child’s cell phone address book? Do you keep getting nuisance phone calls? Do you want to know how you can locate a person by telephone number?

You might want to find out who owns a phone number and where they live for a number of very good reasons including looking up old friends, neighbors or relatives. Reverse telephone directories can be used for all sorts of good reasons and not just to spy on someone or catch a nuisance caller or stalker.

Using Google to locate people by telephone number

You can sometimes locate people by phone number for free by simply typing in their telephone number to search engines like Google, Yahoo and MSN. This works especially well when the number that you’re searching for is owned by a business.

Businesses want to be found and many use the Internet to advertise their business so there is a good chance that their phone number is published on their web site or elsewhere on the Internet. Businesses love you to use reverse telephone listings to find them. If the number is on a web page somewhere then it’s likely that the search engines have indexed it ready for you to find for free. Individuals tend to be more protective of their phone number so it might be harder to find them than it is a business.

Finding a phone number on the Internet and using search engines to find people is always going to be hit and miss but it’s not as uncommon as you might think. Just give it a go, what have you got to lose? Try searching for the phone number in all of the main search engines. You might just get lucky.

Get better results using a fee based reverse telephone directory

If you don’t have any luck trying to locate a person by telephone number using the free search engines you should try using a web site that maintains a database of searchable land line and cell phone numbers. They collect information from many public records sources so not only do you stand a better chance of finding who owns the number but you can also find out lots of background information on them at the same time.

Use a Reverse Telephone Directory to find someone now.

Arrest Warrants | How to Find Out How Many Criminals Are Active in Your Neighborhood

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

Do you know where the criminals are in your area

Find someone’s criminal record

Recently I happened to be talking to someone about how important it was to know if you have an arrest warrant. What this person told me took me by surprise and it turned my thinking on it’s head.

I said that if you wanted to avoid the stress and financial loss, not to mention the embarrassment that would happen to you if the police came and arrested you on a warrant unexpectedly one day then you have to make regular checks to see if you have an arrest warrant anywhere in the country. If you know that you have a warrant then you can get a lawyer and go and hand yourself in voluntarily which not only is the right thing to do but it will also lead to the best outcome for you.

If you get an arrest warrant then simply move to another state to avoid it

I must have touched a nerve in the stranger that I was talking to because what he said to me next left me speechless. He laughed and told me that both he and his wife both had active arrest warrants in a different state and they simply moved to avoid them. Apparently they had warrants in other states dating back years and they haven’t been caught yet.

It’s too expensive to enforce arrest warrants across states

I was trying to keep the conversation light hearted at this point because I started to get a very uneasy feeling but I wanted to find out more. Apparently the police don’t enforce warrants for arrest across states because it’s too expensive for them. I guess that they think that if a criminal has moved away from their area then they are someone else’s problem.

The person that told me this then informed me that moving state was a very common method of evading the law and that he knew of many more criminals living in the area that had moved to escape capture in states where they had committed crimes.

Anyone in your area could have an arrest warrant

The implications of what I was being told started to dawn on me and I realized that this was a big problem. Why? Because it means that literally anyone in your neighborhood or any one of your work buddies or anyone that you invite into your home, could be criminals in another state. That’s a frightening thought isn’t it?

Protect yourself by knowing who the criminals are

So what can you do about it?  Sign up at a public records web site where you can check out the arrest warrants, criminal records and other background information on anyone you want. It’s not expensive compared with the peace of mind that you’ll get from knowing where the criminals are. Start by checking out the people that you have most contact with and especially anyone that you are considering hiring to do any work for you. Then you can check out all the people that live in your area.

If you are brave then you can tip off the police about the whereabouts of these criminals trying to evade warrants. The least you should do is stay away from them and don’t invite them into your home.

Find Criminal Records | Are Your Friends Criminals?

How to protect yourself from people with criminal records

Find someone’s criminal record

How well do you know the people around you? Time and time again you hear of seemingly ordinary people committing the most horrible crimes. Kidnapping, murder, rape… The list goes on and on and in an alarming number of these cases the people around the criminal, including closest friends, were completely unaware of what was going on. How do you protect yourself against criminals like this?

Kate and John had been looking for someone to do some odd jobs on their property for some time so when they saw someone working on their neighbors house, Kate took the time to go and talk to him. His name was Jim and he came across as being very approachable. Kate liked him a lot so she asked him to come over and meet John that evening. John was equally impressed with Jim and they asked him to do some small jobs on their property.

Jim arranged to do the work later that week. He turned up on time, did the work efficiently and left. Kate and John were so impressed that they asked Jim to do several more jobs for them over the following weeks. Everything went according to plan and Jim became almost part of the family for a time. They came to trust Jim so much that they were quite happy to let him enter the property while they were out at work and even loaned him a set of keys.

Check his criminal record before letting him into your house.

The work took a little longer than expected as it so often does but at the end of 3 months John made a final inspection of the work and paid Jim in full. They paid cash because Jim asked for it. I’m not sure why workers in the building trade like to be paid in cash but that’s another story.

They only noticed the problem after Jim had vanished

Jim left the area and on to another job. Kate and John thought that everything was ok until one day Kate found something unusual while checking her credit card statements. Normally she doesn’t pay much attention to the statements and just clears some of the debt but this time something caught her eye.

There was a purchase that Kate didn’t recognize. It wasn’t for a large amount but she knew that she had been at a wedding all day on the date of purchase so she knew that she couldn’t have made it. She then looked closer at her statements for the previous 3 months and found that there were in fact quite a lot of transactions that she couldn’t account for. Some of them were hers of course – she simply didn’t remember using her card but there were others that definitely were not down to her. They were all small but amounted to several thousand dollars when you added them all up.

John was horrified by this and set about checking his own statements only to find the same pattern of unexplained transactions. Then they started to think about some things that they thought they had lost around the house – Kate’s cell phone and some jewelry that she didn’t wear very often. John had lost his PDA and a few power tools that hardly ever left his workshop. Had all these items been stolen?

You can avoid this happening to you

This is a fictitious story designed to illustrate a very real problem that does happen only too often. Kate and John could have avoided the problems that they now have trying to recover their money and property by doing a simple criminal records search. Jim had a criminal record and Kate and John were not his first victims. Nothing serious and he had served his time but he was an habitual thief. Something that they might have spotted from his record.

Signs That He is Married | 10 Signs That Your Boyfriend is Lying To You

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

Are you dating a married man? Learn to spot the tell tell signs of someone lying

Search for marriage records

Is your date giving you signs that he is married or is being unfaithful to another girlfriend? Is he giving you signals that make you think that he’s lying to you? Is there a perfectly innocent explanation for your boyfriends behaviour or is he cheating on someone and lying to you?

Dating someone new can be a great experience but you won’t be abe to get the most out of a new relationship until you’ve made sure that your boyfriend is being honest with you and that he isn’t keeping any secrets like the fact that he’s married. To do this you need to follow the following 2 steps:

  • Step 1. Learn how to spot that someone is lying or trying to keep a secret from you.
  • Step 2. Do a background check on your boyfriend to fill in the facts.

Step 1. How to spot the signs cheating boyfriends

Really take notice of what your boyfriend does and what he says. Does any of the following 10 signs of a lying boyfriend sound familiar to you?

  1. He ends an Internet chat with you abruptly as if his partner has just walked in.
  2. He doesn’t want to give you his home phone number.
  3. He doesn’t want you to visit him at his home.
  4. He has a wedding ring – what a giveaway – If you spot this one he’s not very bright.
  5. Your intuition tells you that something is wrong? Women are right most of the time.
  6. Sometimes his stories just don’t add up. Compare what he tells you on different occasions.
  7. Ask him if he’s married and see if he becomes uncomfortable or has trouble answering.
  8. He’s secretive.
  9. There seems to be a lot of times when he can’t meet you for no apparent reason.
  10. There are some places that you can’t go together.

If you recognize any of the signs above then you have cause to be concerned but you must be careful not to jump to conclusions. He might be being secretive because he’s planning a romantic occasion for your birthday for instance. You need to get some proof before you put your foot in it and wreck what could have been the start of something special.

Step 2. Find out if he’s married by doing an online background check

Even if you don’t suspect that your boyfriend is lying it’s always a good idea to find out something about his background. He might not be married but he might have a criminal record that he hasn’t mentioned to you. The easiest way to find out if he’s married or if he has any other secrets that you don’t know about is to do a full online background check on him using a public records database. It’s easy and quick and it will be well worth your investment just for the peace of mind that you’ll get.

How To Tell If Hes Married And Avoid Picking A Loser At The Office Party

Wednesday, October 14th, 2009

How To Tell If He’s Married quickly and easily

It’s party season again and you might be wondering whether you’ll get a chance to hook up with someone you’ve been eyeing up in the office. You might even find yourself with someone you didn’t expect or never even knew existed beforehand. I’m sure that everyone is going to have a great time but you would be wise to take a few precautions.

Now by precautions I don’t mean the obvious. That kind of precaution is very important too but it isn’t what I want to talk about here. I’m thinking about dangers that maybe aren’t quite as obvious like making sure that you don’t get stuck with a loser, someone who’s married already, has a criminal record, arrest warrants out on them or even a sex offender. How would you know these things unless you make and effort to find out?

Do a background check on him before the party if you can

If you’ve got a good idea of who you intend to target your attention on, have a good time with or go home with then it’s a good idea to do a background check on them before the party. This could avoid some embarrassment and tears and if you can eliminate them before you start you can go after someone else instead.

Unfortunately life isn’t always like that and sometimes you’ll find yourself going home with someone you never expected to. In this case you can do a background check on them the day after just in case you’re tempted to turn it into a longer relationship.

How to tell if he’s married by talking to him

If you don’t know the guy that you are with at a party try to find out as much as you can about them while you are still sober enough to do it. Watch out for inconsistencies and do your best to work out whether he’s telling you the truth or not. Most people are bad liars so you might find that it’s easier to do than you think.

If all goes well at the party be sure to get that background check done the very next day. If you’re still thinking about him then you’ll want to know what he’s really like which might not be what he’s telling you.

Doing a background check can be very easy and affordable. The power of the Internet now brings billions of public records together in one place just waiting for you to do your background searches from the comfort of your own home. You might appreciate a little comfort if you had a very good time the night before.
