The person I looked up has never lived at the address listed, he is married and it says he is not everything about this is completely wrong except the name. He's been arrested and it says he has not. This is a fake scam and only gave me 75% of my money back when I should have received every cent of it since this was falsely advertised! I will let everyone know how this company is an actual scam that steals money!

After the report is compiled you pay for membership thinking the info will be available to you, but then you have to pay again to actually see it. Great I paid to see that I searched someone. Very misleading. It doesn't tell you each search will be charged for again.

This is total bs
April 9, 2022

This is total bs. In all of the promo info you talk about how thorough and complete this is. Even when downloading the data, you warn that there is criminal info being found. Then when I look at the report, its very sketchy, incomplete and in some cases inaccurate. No marriage/divorce record? No professional licensing records? No social security info? Oh, but I can upgrade to a more premium account and get more info. That's not going to happen. This seems like a scam to me.

Accurate but almost too basic

Marginal information provided that wasn't already in the public domain, and then a come-on to up subscription $ for access to "more info," which likewise would be less than informative.
