TruthFinder is a background checking service that you can use to gather information about a certain person. With just a little bit of information about them (last name, city of residence, etc.), you can have a full comprehensive report in which all the important information is summarized.
How does it work?
TruthFinder gathers information legally by using publicly available records. Their sources include county, state, city, and federal records.
Although anyone can gather the information by themselves, TruthFinder can do this within minutes. Their search results are also reliable and accurate.
Every background check that you will run for someone will strictly be confidential. The person will not know if you asked for a full report about them.
What information can you look for?
According to their website, you can look for information such as:
- Full name (first, middle, and last)
- Birth information (age and birth date)
- Possible photos
- Aliases and nicknames
- Possible relatives
- Job history and position
- Education
- Possible associates
- Contact Information
Dark Web Monitoring
TruthFinder also offers monitoring of your identity in the dark web. This is a sketchy part of the internet that is hard to reach without VPNs and the use of the TOR browser, which makes it notorious as a marketplace for illegal activities.
TruthFinder has partnered with Experian to give users extra security by monitoring important information about them including the following and more:
- Social Security Number
- Passport number
- Email address
- Bank account number
- Driver’s license
- Contact information
The user will then be notified if this kind of information is present on the dark web’s marketplace. This is a sign that you are a victim of identity theft and another person may be using your credentials to commit financial activities without your permission. In this case, you will need to contact your credit provider to let them freeze your account.
Mobile application
TruthFinder also has a mobile application in case you would like to do a background check no matter where you are. It is available for both Android and Apple phones.
How much does Truthfinder cost?
TruthFinder’s pricing mainly applies to the service that they give and not the information that they gather. The following are the pricing plans for their service:
- Membership for one month is priced at less than $30. This means that you will pay less than a dollar for all reports if you plan to do one every day. This gives you access to unlimited reports.
- Membership for three months is at less than $26 per month of subscription. This gives you access to unlimited reports for three months.
- They also have a separate plan for the phone number lookup plan which allows you to run a background check on someone by using their phone number.
These plans will automatically renew unless manually cancelled by the user. They can be paid through major credit cards and through PayPal.
Customer Support
TruthFinder offers customer support and it is available by visiting their website TruthFinder.help.
They also have representatives for any inquiries, available through the number (800) 699-8081 which is accessible from Monday to Friday.
