Hi! My name is Kimberly Sepulveda, my friends call me Belle. I am an independent product tester, blogger, Navy-mom, and wife living in north Florida. I buy all of the products I recommend, and I do not accept free test products from manufacturers. While I wish the cost of maintaining a blog was free, it is not. And since I am a Navy Mom, instead of using my husband's and my family's income to support this site, the providers of some—though not all—of the sites mentioned are generous enough to provide compensation for my honest opinions about their products or services. Feel free to check out my full compensation disclosure.
My goal with this site is to help you steer clear of the many scams out there so you can run effective people searches, learn a few tools that are right for the job, and turn safe-keeping into habit with your person-to-person interactions on the web. Consider this site a blueprint to every day, modern networking. Let me show you how easy it is to be safe, be educated, and be in control!
~ Belle
Who I am: My name is Kimberly Sepulveda, but all my friends call me Belle. I’m a Navy-mom, wife, blogger, and product reviewer living in sunny Florida.
My mission: To educate others, through effective products and tips, to be more careful about the very people they befriend, date, hire, buy from, and even marry.
My motto: “Be safe. Be educated. Be in control.”
Most people I know use the Internet for almost everything, and as a result we end up “meeting” many more more strangers on a weekly if not daily basis than ever before. In my case, I love to buy and sell things on Craigslist. Most times the person on the other end is a good-hearted being like I am. But *really* how safe is it to allow some stranger into your home or, worse, to go into their home as if you’ve known them for years?
And what about all those social networking sites? How safe are they? Don’t get me wrong–they have their place. In fact, I met the man of my dreams on <blush> MySpace! We’re now married with a 1 yr old baby boy. But before we met, I was smart and arranged for a friend to be there when he picked me up. I also checked him out online.
You’ll find there are many reasons to check people out online. But what I also recommend checking out is the companies that let you check people out. Beware of those that make promises you cannot keep. Remember, be Smart, be Safe, and be in Control!
im trying to find out how to get a total nation wide background check
Robert, I would like to suggest Net Detective or Complete Detective. (see links on the right, green button) Full nationwide searching, unlimited searches. Can’t go wrong it you ask me! Good luck.
~ Belle
Just wanted to say thank you for all of the info. Net Detective is a great site with a great price too.
My question is what does the search results contain? I see that sex offenders are listed in the Law Enforcement edition. How do I get that information. I run a church security ministry and we are screening newcomers who would like to join the ministry and ones that want to work with the youth. Please help!!
Curious to know if there are any companies that can look up email addresses. I know where they live and name. wanna drop em a line. thanks
Hi Belle,
Do you know of a way to find out if someone has gotten married in the last few years?
Thank you.
I do believe thats a matter of ” Public Record.” Check your local ” City Hall, or the ” County Building.” However, it’s free to only ask, God only knows, if city hall is also on the ” Take.” You must get a Marrage Licence. Hope that helps.? Tom
Hello Belle
Is there any search site that can provide me with a photo of the person I have found. I will gladly pay for a photo. TY.Michele
hay larry wayne white. i heard you came to memphis last year and you asked about me. if you get this message email me back or you know how to get intouch with my family. would love to hear from you.
I wish to UNSUBSCRIBE to Public Records.com What phone # can I use or where on line. I can’t find anything and I had decided to cancel at the end of the first month anyway because they are a ripoff. I will go to BOA(my bank), BBB, and local TV stations if they continue to take monthly pmts from my account.
Thanks for posting, Susan. Sorry to hear about your experience. Did PublicRecords.com ever give you back your money? Folks here would love to know!
~ Belle
People Search is taking money from my account. I can not find a phone number either. Can you help me please?
This is my 2nd letter. My daughter wont let her daughters or I know were she is living,it hurts them. Can I find her with her S.Security #?
My question is: Does the pd sign up with detective actually give you info on the person or does it just do the search and then u pay extra for info found?
Betty,
You do not pay for extra info found. You only pay once to access the service. Then you are welcome to search — AND FIND — as long as your subscription lasts (which is at least a year, maybe more… read the details in your order or call the company’s Customer Care).

This site is very informative. You deserve multiple commendations for it.
Hi Belle,
My name is Anne Clark and I am a volunteer Search Angel. I do this as a hobby to help others and do not charge. Am I able to share my email with others so that they can respond to specific questions to aid in the search. I have helped over 250 individuals and use all public free resources. I don’t want people to post to much of thier private iknformation on the posts.
Thank you,
Anne

Thank you, Anne. I would love for you to help out on our Lost Friends Board, if you don’t mind. I’ll send you an email shortly!

Are there any sites that can pull up text messages that are being sent to and from a cell phone? The phone is in my name. I just want to make sure my child does not get into any trouble by associating with a bad crowd. My child is a minor.
Wow, now that’s a new request/question! Let’s see, last I was aware cell phone information like that is not available to the public. But with whatever homeland security is up to these days, who knows! Sorry, don’t mean to scare you. Are you concerned with what your child is up to? You might want to limit text message services with your provider. Please keep us posted as this is a great question and certainly one that interests me, myself a Parent!
~ Belle
Some companies offer chips that you can put in phones and pull up ANY texts sent or received on a phone whether they were ever saved or not. contact ur provider.
Before I decide to register with one of these recommendations, do any of the websites you recommend include “non or un” published phone numbers?
Good question, Susan. These services, at least Net Detective as I am aware, can help locate non or unlisted numbers. It can be tricky though as any info that has not been made public is difficult to find in one of these services. I suggest you give it a try. If you’re not happy, you are entitled to a full refund. Let me know how it goes!

Please stop displaying my age on people search or on background check. Please do this immediately.
Thank you.

Hello Seervart,
I can certainly edit the posts per your request. But just so you know, this information is publicly available, otherwise it wouldn’t have shown up here in the first place. Since I am about 95% sure this data came from Net Detective, you might want to contact Net Detective ASAP and ask that they remove your age from their records. That way, it will not show up at the source. You’ll be going straight to the horse’s mouth! http://netdetective.net.

hi,kindly search for Gabriel Idheromah,50yrs,reside in Omaha,NE.
To check out a potential date is there any free site giving employer, income and their occupation? Also besides mva any other online databases for free having a persons photo on an id card? Any free site to locate current live phone and cell not voicemail? Can you find for free a person’s home address from their po box without asking the post office? How do celebrities stay out of these public records but non celebrities can’t get their info erased?
Patricia,
As of yet, there are no “good” free sites that do all of the things you’re asking for. Net Detective and some other pay sites provide income, occupation, phone, cell… this I know. But I don’t know about finding a home address from a PO Box. I doubt the Post Office is that “hip” to update their public records, but I could be totally wrong! Finally, anyone can opt-out of these lists. Just search around and you’ll find some solutions. But let me warn you, nothing “good” is free unfortunately. I hope this helps!
~ Belle
Belle,
I forgot to ask, can these people find out a check is being run on them? NOT COOL for me! What about a photo of a model in Bahrain? Man i met used friend’s pic instead!
NINA
Nina,
No one will know if a search has been run on them. These are totally private services that value your privacy, too.
