I'm sure that by now you've seen or heard somewhere about a reverse phone lookup, sometimes referred to as a reverse cell phone lookup, or a reverse phone trace.
In this article, I'll show you how to use them (it's super easy) and why you need a service like this.
Before we get started, let me advise you not to fall into the trap of the "free" versions of these.
There is no such thing as "free", and those that offer it will only take you to a page where you have to pay before you get the pertinent information.
Ok, so who can use this service? Let's look: Husbands and Wives Doing a reverse cell phone lookup is one of the primary ways that cheating spouses are caught.
Many still mistakenly believe that they can't get caught if they use their cell phones.
That's just not the case anymore, as even cell phones can be traced.
Back before number portability, the carrier owned the number, not the customer.
This is why they were hard to trace.
Nowadays, the customer owns the number, so it's just as easy to find a cell phone number as a landline.
Moms and Dads I remember when I was a kid, my parents didn't have to worry about be going outside to play with my friends.
Unfortunately, those days are gone, and many parents (myself included) are arming their kids with cell phones so that they can keep up with them.
The problem with this is you don't really know who your child is talking to on their phone, it could be a kid from down the street, or could be someone you need to worry about.
Either way, you can find out with a reverse cell phone lookup.
Employers and Small Business Owners If you own or work for a company that has multiple cell phones, it would pay you greatly to know exactly who your employees are talking to.
Certainly, they're using their company phones to call home, and do other personal business, but what if they're talking to your competition? Or worse, they're using your phone and your time to find another job? Probably something you'd like to know.
