The information I know should be there for people I searched is not there. There is nothing there I didn't already know. Not helpful.

Date of experience: May 2, 2022

I got very basic information for the price and then had to pay more for all the information the report said it had on it.

PeopleWhiz Is A Scam
June 1, 2022

I signed up for 6 month rate at $14.95/mo (89.70 due today). What a major disappointment when I opened the report. It was extremely confusing to follow because it was not totally relevant to the searched individual. When I went to log into my account I wasn't even allowed to login. According to google one must provide a legal ID photo to cancel Membership. It certainly didn't need one for me to join. I want to cancel my membership immediately! This will be reported to the BBB IMMEDIATELY! I

You had nothing!

You had nothing! You had people that were not even in the same country! I want my money back or I go to the Better Business Bureau! I will let them know how you con people into thinking you have secrets about the people but it's not even close to the one you asked about. Not even the same country! I want my money back. I will go on all social media and worn others to not use this site
