This site is a joke!
December 3, 2021

This site is a joke! Its a scam! You pay 27.99$ and unless you upgrade your just as clueless as before. You get more info looking at someones facebook profile for free than you pay for on this site!

I never leave low feedback but I have always taught my little girl that if you don't let others know of their mistakes in a kind way then they can never improve so……there a LOT of errors when I searched for my information. I'm sure your site just lists what it finds in the search but just thought you should know. Thanks

My first two searches did not include criminal history, that I know exists and is current. Please refund me and cancel my subscription.

This sight is so out of date and inaccurate. I looked myself up and I have all kinds of criminal history in my past yet it nothing at all. I didn't even show my wife's Facebook that has had for over a decade. Trash

Updated review

Most of the info in this report is info that I already knew. Other then for the very lengthy sex offenders in the 3 area. And unfortunately I was not given the opportunity to choose an area to search in, I would have liked to have that choice. At this point tho I don't think it is worth my time or my money for a "deeper search" tho something tells me that info wouldn't be anything new either, or even incorrect info. This search actually included not only ex-husband & his family, but it also included my current husband's ex-wife & her new/current family, as well as a few names that myself & my husband don't even recognize. Kind of curious not just how/where they obtained the unknown names but how/where they are connecting these names to me...?

Very fast!
I would be a trailblazer and admit up front that there are "great" options for various subscriptions instead of waiting until the end, like every other site like this.

On Sunday, October 31 I signed up for this side and paid 19.95. Today on November 2 I received an email to refresh to find out more information about a specific individual and I paid 27.95. I was led to believe that if i refreshed the information on this person, it would give me different information than previously. Frankly I feel like I've been misled and I want my money back.
