These are often performed when you have just the number but want to get a name and address for that number.
Maybe you suspect your spouse or significant other is cheating on you because you have found the same number showing up on their cell phone or wireless statement over and over and it doesn't look familiar.
Or maybe you saw the number come up on your husband's phone and you could tell by the look he gave you when he answered and snuck off to another room that the call was more than a little suspicious.
Get access to the name and address immediately online through a regularly updated reverse phone lookup directory.
Not only can you get a name and address, but many reverse directories also offer background information scraped from public records all over the country.
These may include:
- divorce records
- traffic violations
- names of employers
- names of relatives along with their addresses
However, it's not free.
There are no public listings of cell phone numbers both for privacy reasons and because wireless phones involve per minute charges and, therefore, have been considered private information.
The right directory, though, is worth the money to get all of that information on the cell phone number in question.
These directories tend to offer several types of access.
You can either buy a one time report or you can join as a member for a one time fee and perform unlimited lookups.
Additional background checks may cost extra, though.
Keep in mind that because you are ordering something online, you will be sent an email receipt of your order.
If you need to keep the order a secret, use a separate or toss-away email.
It's important that you use a reverse directory that offers a money back guarantee or some type of promise to provide up to date information.
Lots of directories attempt to sell old information to those doing a reverse lookup for cell phone numbers and that kind of information won't help you at all.
