Finding someone with TruthFinder’s People Search tool is simple — and you don't need a lot of information to get started.

Follow these five steps:

Step One

Enter a first and last name in the box above. Did this person ever go by a different name? Do they use their middle name instead of their first name? If you can’t find someone on your first attempt, try different variations of their name to see if you can locate them.

Step Two

Enter a location. If you don’t know where they live, try entering the last known city and state of residence. If you’re not sure, you can leave this section blank to explore all reports that match the first and last name.

Step Three

Refine results. Once TruthFinder has found possible candidates that match your search inputs, you can refine your results to find the correct report. This is especially helpful if someone has a common name. Add a middle initial and age to help refine your results.

Step Four

Find the correct report by matching known information about the person with the information listed on the report.

Step Five

Open your report. With a TruthFinder membership, you can view contact information (including landlines,cell phone numbers,email addresses, andlocation information), criminal and arrest records, social and dating profiles, possible photographs, assets, businesses, and much more.

While there are other online background checking services, we pride ourselves in our ability to deliverbackground reportswith the most recent, publicly available information about almost anyone in the United States.

Why am I on a Government Watch List?

If you are surprised to see data in a TruthFinder report identify that you are on a government watchlistthere are two possibilities. 

The first possibility is that you are simply on a watchlist without realizing it. The second possibility is that someone with the same name as you is on a watchlist.

If a name appears on a “government watch list,” that by itself doesn’t mean that person is a suspected terrorist, a fugitive for the law, or something else nefarious. It simply means that the name appears on one of the many “watch lists” that governments all over the world maintain.

Some watchlists aren’t a big deal. The U.S.Government’s Systems for Awards Management, which manages information about people and organizations who do contract work for the government, has an “exclusions” list. Exclusion records identify those parties excluded from receiving federal contracts, certain subcontracts, and certain types of federal financial and nonfinancial assistance and benefits.
