Rags To Riches With A Simple Search

Now here's a story that will really warm your heart. Seth has been a friend of mine since high school so I've known him now for over 30 years. He had a strange childhood as his parents divorced at an early age and only his mother raised him. His mom worked all the time to support the family of 3 kids so she couldn't really be there for him and he certainly never had a father figure to teach him the manly things in life except for a few chords on the guitar. This did leave Seth with a love of music but it plagued him the rest of his life. He always thought he could make a living in music, but of course that never happened. Consequently, he led a life of many mistakes. Over the years he developed emotional and medical problems that led him through 3 marriages. There was always a money problem that seemed to add if not end every relationship he tried to start. He went from job to job trying to find something he could be happy with but everything seemed to take him to a dead end since the only thing he really wanted to do was make music. Then, Seth met Betsy almost 12 years ago and finally found someone that understood him with his musical dreams and wanted to stay with him no matter what.

The two spent the years together but slowly everything started deteriorating again. This time it was mostly money. Seth was never happy at his job and it left Betsy to make most of the living. Seth tried many different things at home to try and contribute to the financial part of the relationship but things suddenly turned for the worst.

Seth was on the way home one day from some little job he had found when he needed just to get away and stopped for a few drinks. One thing led to another and Seth was arrested for DUI. Betsy knew what this was going to cost and it was about the last straw. But she hung on; hoping something good would come out of the situation.

Well, things went from bad to worse. Seth lost his drivers license and couldn't find a job close enough to home to get to everyday. Their financial situation got staggering. This included more medical problems, utilities being turned off and their home being put up in foreclosure.

Then about the time all seemed at it's darkest; I ask Seth to take a look at a new website I had created called PeopleProbe.info and to let me know what he thought. On the site he found a link to search for unclaimed money. There was not a lot left to do and they had a total of about $30 left in the bank after paying the power bill so Seth thought why not, couldn't hurt. So he typed in his name and clicked the search button.

Within a few seconds a list came up with 63 different people with his same name and a total of over $246,000 in uncollected funds. Seth told me he remembered thinking that someone out there had a lot of money waiting and it sure would be a blessing if just a little of it was for him.

Well, to purchase the list it cost $19.95. He almost couldn't bring himself to spend most of their last few dollars on a pipe dream, especially since there was not much food left in the house, but he did it anyway.

Seth got the list and started calling the contacts. Then, the forth name on the list, was all it took. Seth found out that his Great Uncle Truman had died a few years back and had owned some land. It was only 16 acres but the location was the key. It was purchased after his death by some shopping center developers as commercial property and today there was a mall standing on it. Truman had remembered Seth from years ago when he had come to visit him when he was very sick and had told him that his farm land would be worth something one day and that that he was going to give him a piece of it.

Well it was more that a piece. Truman apparently had a falling out with the members of his family and had left the entire parcel of land to Seth. A few years later the developers purchased the property and put the money in a trust fund for 20 years or until the owner came forward.

To make a long story short, of the $246,000 dollars in the PeopleProbe.info list, $210,000 of it was all Seth's! The land had been sold for $13,125 an acre. What really got me; Seth didn't even have to go and get the money. He was sent a cashier's check and received it 8 days later by a private courier service. All he had to do was fax a birth certificate and a driver's license and the deal was done.

So today, Seth and Betsy are doing great of course. They paid off their credit cards, caught up all the utilities and brought the house payment current. They also purchased some musical equipment and are making music together.

It seems a little absurd that anyone could have some money like that just sitting and waiting on them. But saying something like "Stranger Things Have Happened" sure made a lot of Seth's friends go to PeopleProbe.info and see what might be out there for them. I really hope to hear from them too!

The Economy Chicken or The Economy Egg?

9/30/2008

I'm going to set aside talking about PeopleProbe tonight because I have some pressing thoughts on my mind. You might say I'm just venting. I'll bet there's a lot of people that feel like venting right now. I highly recommend getting yourself a blog, so you can vent too!

Our economy is in a mess. Gas shortages, job loss, Wall Street problems, 100 year old banks closing, going out of business sales everywhere and at the same time prices for goods and services are going through the roof. The middle class is disappearing and now you're either going to have a sack full of money, or you're going to have nothing. Tell me something I don't know, right? Our elected officials tell us that it's all caused, by the other cause. In other words, one problem is causing another, then another, all the way back to the problem that caused it all in the first place. But which problem is that? What came first, the economy chicken... or the economy egg?

It's almost like back during the Cuban Missile Crisis. At the time, I lived in northern Alabama near Redstone Arsenal where Nasa built our rockets that were to one day carry our atomic warheads into battle. My parents were certain if weapons of mass destruction were fired at the United States from Cuba, Huntsville Alabama was sure to be a target. So the officials came to our schools and trained us on what to do in case of atomic attack. They said, "If you hear the warning horn, just get under your desk, and everything will be alright!" They built the desk a lot better back then than they do now but of course, this was only our leaders trying to give us assurance in what they knew was a hopeless situation. If a WMD had hit us, there would not have been enough left to talk about anyway.

Today in our economic times, all I'm hearing is this same pending doom, hopeless situation, faith and hope strategy. Save gas, save water, save power. Cut back here, cut back there. A few months back our President gave us an answer to save money. He said that when we weren't home, turn off the air conditioner. Of course since he doesn't have the problem, he wouldn't understand that it would take the same power if not more to cool the house back to a bearable temperature when you get home.

So let's say we do cut back on everything. Everybody gets together and cuts back on "Everything". All of the consumer products that we choose or must use everyday. Now we've created the next problem. We have more jobs lost because of manufacturing and services cut backs from the lack of sales and business. Then distributors and factories start closing and the whole process gets progressively worse. With sales down everywhere, less taxes are now being paid for government programs we need so the people with these positions are out of work too and again, the situation gets even worse. So, what is the answer. Well, I have an idea. In fact, it's already been done before and for the life of me, I can't figure out why our educated leaders have not addressed this nightmare in this particular way. Have we not learned from our past mistakes and achievements?

Sometimes an answer is so simple that you can't see the forest for the trees. Now I know there will be skeptics that will say this will never work, but hear me out for a minute. The fact is, it already has. This is nothing new. The United States and many other countries have done this, and history tells us they may even have to do it again one day. In fact, it's one of the great philosophies our country was founded upon.

So let's begin with one if not probably what we see as our biggest problem and we'll see that it's not a problem, but actually our greatest asset. Unemployment. Today there are about 10 million people unemployed and the numbers are growing each day. Seems like a legitimate problem. But I don't see it as a problem, I see it as 10 million people that have plenty of time on their hands. We just need to find them something to do. In a growing economy, everybody is so busy doing their own thing, it's hard to find people to do the things we need to get done. Such is not the case here, and without question, we have plenty of things we need to get done.

Here's how it was done before, just one example. Again, when I was a kid growing up in northern Alabama, my Grand Parents told me how bad it was when they were young. Going through the depression and World War II must have been far worse than anything we as Americans have experienced at this point in our history. They also told me what President Roosevelt did to get the economy jump started and get things rolling again. In north Alabama, he simply created jobs. For one, he created the Tennessee Valley Authority. At first this was nothing but a series of dams on the Tennessee River to create electricity. So jobs were created to build the dams and and jobs were created to keep them running. Then more jobs were created as the TVA expanded into what it is today. The result... more people had money, more money was spent, more taxes were paid, businesses in the area flourished and more jobs were created to run these businesses. The demand for more products increased so industry started moving in again and even more jobs were created. A simple idea, but it worked!

I'm tired of hearing rumors that America needs to be at war to have a thriving economy. That we must put people to work building weapons to create jobs. We don't need strife and pestilence to grow, we need dreams and positive direction. In the early 1960's, President Kennedy gave us a dream, "Let's beat the Russians to the moon!" I wish you could have seen what happened to Huntsville Alabama. Nasa started hiring, business and industry moved in and commerce and production increased in every aspect. Huntsville rode this gravy train for many years. Then the flip side came. We made it to the moon, and our dream was over. Congress cut back on funding and Huntsville turned into a ghost town. Most all the support groups and industry moved out. Businesses closed and there were empty office buildings and homes everywhere. Then, the Shuttle Program came along and everything started all over again.

OK, maybe the economy does need a $700 billion dollar bandage right now, but that's certainly not going to heal the wound underneath. I think at this point we don't need leaders that say we're going to put America back to work, but leaders that tell us how and when. Every single state in America needs something; a program, a business, a structure, a bridge, an industry, a homeless shelter, something. Let's take some of these trillions of dollars and go to each state and find out what each needs, create the organizations for these needs and put our unemployed back to work doing these jobs. History tells us that the rest will take care of itself.

Let's see what will happen. First, these people will now be able to pay their mortgage and that will help the banking system. Next, they will be spending more money, paying more taxes, consuming more goods and using more services. In turn local business will increase at not only retail, but wholesale and manufacturing levels. This will of course create more jobs, goods, services, taxes and we'll all be on our way to a nice inflationary economy again, which we all know at this point, is a much easier problem to deal with! This country was founded and thrives on creativity and development, not cut backs and reduction.

One area we might start with would be to rebuild some of America's bridges before another one falls. I wonder how many of them are still structurally sound or are we just hiding under our desk again. And how about solar energy. Funding in this area for the job force would solve a lot of problems. Did you know that enough energy comes from the sun every day, to run the entire earth for a year. If solar panels were installed on your home, in the daytime your power meter would actually run backwards! At night it would turn the normal way so that over a 24 hour period your power consumption would be basically zero. So far the only thing stopping most people from equipping their homes with solar has been the cost. But, putting people to work in this industry would bring the cost down and also reduce our dependency on foreign oil.

Some would be pessimistic and say that a plan like this would take years to reach fruition. I would have to to be optimistic and say that our economy could actually turn on a dime. I saw it happen in Huntsville. Yesterday the Dow Jones Average dropped 777 points. Today the market flourished almost 500 points just at the very thought the House of Representatives "might" pass one simple bill. Who knows what's going to happen tomorrow. Fear and cutbacks are not the answer. Goal setting, growth, progress, expansion and fresh new ideas and dreams are the paths to monetary happiness for us all. Let's find the things that need to be done, allocate funds to projects that improve our way of life, create positions of employment for these projects and put America back to work.

I'm sure I'll get a lot of comments on this one, and I welcome them all.

A Tragedy Prevented

Brock had used PeopleProbe.info one time to find out who the owner was of a cell number he had found in his briefcase. It had been scrawled on a napkin and must have been there forever because he had totally forgotten where it came from. After finding out about PeopleProbe.info through a search online, he had found out that the number was from a client that he'd worked with several months prior. After using the website that one time, he had forgotten about it.

Until it was his turn to take the kids to the park. Jesse was a four year old with limitless energy and Laura was a thirteen year old that had just started begging her dad to allow her to wear fingernail polish. Their mother and Brock's wife had a meeting and it was his day to spend time with the kids. In the middle of running around the slide to catch Jesse and keep him from putting a frog on another little girl, Brock had a phone call. It was an important client that couldn't wait, so he told Laura to watch Jesse and he went to the bench to answer the call.

The client was particularly rattled and kept Brock on the phone and distracted longer than he'd planned to be. He rifled through his briefcase to find papers that he could reference for the client in order to explain a point and by the time he got off the phone, half an hour had passed. Of course, he had glanced up at the children, but seeing that they were still there and playing, he hadn't worried.

On the way home, Laura became upset. Brock tried to find out why and was absolutely floored and outraged when he did find out. While he was on the phone, a man had come to the fence on the other side of the park. He had called Laura over and talked to her for a minute. He told her that she was very pretty and that he would like to talk to her more. Laura described the man as 'really old, like Grandpa.' She was extremely upset and said that the man had said she would make a good girlfriend. He had given her a piece of paper with a cell phone number on it and told her to call him.

Brock saw completely red and after dropping the kids off at home, he returned to the park and looked around. Of course, the man was nowhere to be found. Just then, Brock remembered the cell phone number and the website. Speeding home, he went to PeopleProbe.info and entered the number. Although the man had thought he was being smart to give the girl a cell phone number, Brock found his name instantly. Disturbingly, he also found his criminal records and found out he was a convicted sex offender. They immediately called the police, of course, and the man was arrested. Brock couldn't have been more thankful that PeopleProbe.info had stopped this man from harassing or doing worse things to other girls Laura's age. Brock never took another call at the park again, either.

Tips for Finding Your Pet a Good Home

If you have ever had to face the situation of giving away your pet, you know how traumatic it can be. Many people have to give away their pets due to financial concerns or living arrangements. Or your pet has just recently become a new father or mother, and you have to find each one of their babies a new home! Lots of people place ads in the newspaper or on the internet in order to give away their animals. The trouble is, how do you know if you're giving these animals a good home or not? These ads reach many different people, and some people with bad intentions comb through these ads on purpose to find animals. You really never know if you're putting your four-legged friend in the care of an animal abuser, a dog fighter, or someone with similar issues. No animal lover wants to think of these possibilities.

While you can talk to the person who is interested in taking your animal, you can never really know what kind of person they are. While they may have a friendly face and seem very nice, well…so did Michael Vick. If you're not familiar with him, he is the professional football player who recently was convicted of several counts of animal cruelty for dog fighting, and hanging and drowning injured dogs. There is a way, however, to check a person's background to see if they have ever been convicted of animal abuse.

By visiting a site like PeopleProbe.info and useing the Cellphone Registry, you can simply enter a person's cell phone number and instantly have access to personal information about that person. You don't have to have a lot of personal information to get access to these records. Just by having the contact information for someone, you can tell whether or not you will be sending your pet to a good home. By finding their criminal records, you will know whether or not they have ever been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor. Then, you will be able to feel safer when you give your beloved pets to these people.

No one wants to have to give their animal up, and no one wants to give kittens or puppies to someone who may mistreat them. Many animals are abused every day, and lead lives of torture, pain, and shame. By checking PeopleProbe.info, you can be sure that your beloved animals never have to lead lives like this. Animals are meant to be loved, cuddled, fed, and played with. When you give away an animal, wouldn't you want to know that this is the fate that awaits them? Animals can't stick up for themselves, so it's up to us to stick up for them. Use the tips on PeopleProbe.info to make sure that your pets are going to a good and loving home.

Taken

John met Elizabeth at a coffee shop in Detroit. She was beautiful and one single conversation with her left John wanting to learn more about her. A marketing manager from Los Angeles, Elizabeth was gorgeous. She had long, dark hair and eyes that made John's heart skip a beat. They began talking on accident, when there were no other seats and Elizabeth offered for John to join her. She ignored him at first, typing away on her laptop, but when John said, "You look busy," she laughed and began to explain some of her work to him. They ended up talking at that coffee shop for three hours! When John learned that she was from LA, he was really bummed. However, she said that she visited often and would like to look him up.

Their relationship progressed from there and she would often stay at his loft apartment when she visited. John was absolutely enamored by Elizabeth. He had never met another woman that he actually wanted to marry and spend the rest of his life with. They would talk for hours, laugh like they had never laughed before and talk about their plans and dreams. It seemed so perfect to John, except that Elizabeth lived so far away. He often brought up that fact, in hopes that she really liked him enough to try and come up with a solution. However, she never did and things became strange.

Elizabeth would get business calls and have to leave the apartment to talk to important clients. She would be upset when she got back and no matter how many times John asked, she said that she didn't want to talk about it. He started to wonder if perhaps she was with another man or something else. They had been dating for around seven months when Katy stopped calling and didn't come to his loft apartment anymore. He tried to call her cell phone number, only to find that there was a message saying it was no longer in service. John was absolutely heartbroken and confused.

A friend pointed John to PeopleProbe.info with the suggestion that he search Elizabeth's name through civil records. Although John didn't understand why, he searched her name anyway and found out where she lived, her home phone number, and her marriage license. She was taken. John was absolutely dumbfounded. The entire time they had been together, she had never even suggested that she was married. John didn't know what to think. Of course, when Elizabeth needed a 'shoulder,' she came by trying to make excuses, but John was armed with his information.

John eventually met another woman that he was very attracted to, and he searched her name at the very beginning! Finding out that she was, in fact, single, he pursued a relationship with her. He still shakes his head at the situation with Elizabeth but thanks to PeopleProbe.info, he didn't allow her to play him like a fool and he finally found the real woman of his dreams.

Online Charities

Americans have large, generous and giving hearts. Many people donate money to online charities to help the needy, those with illnesses, animal activists and more. If you're one of these people, good for you! It is an amazing thing to give what you can to someone who is in need or to research illnesses in the hopes of finding a cure. It is also a wonderful thing to help those who protect animals and their rights as well. If you do give to charities, you should know one thing. Not all of the charities online are real. In fact, there are criminals and con-artists who take advantage of people's generosity and kindness. They post fake charities, get you involved so that you want to 'make a difference,' and they line their pockets and wallets with the checks you send. So, while you think you're helping someone who is in need, you may be only helping someone who is full of greed. Here are some really good tips for avoiding 'charities' like this.

• Do your research on a charity. We are so full of empathy for people sometimes that we get emotional about a sad story or a problem and we get our checkbooks out and go to writing before we think. Unfortunately, while this is a wonderful quality to have, we must be careful. Find out what you can about a charity before you send them anything.

• See if you can contact someone who has been helped by the charity before. Many charities tell you personal stories of people that they have been able to help through donations. If you can contact this person, find out what they were helped with and any other information that will help you realize if the charity in question is legitimate or real.

Check to see what address they are giving you to send the money to. If you can get the address, you can find out the owner of the address. Here's how –

If you want to find out if the owner of the charity is a criminal, all you need is the address. Visit PeopleProbe.info where you can look up someone's background through their address! The best program we use is ReverseGenie. Through this procedure, you can enter the address of the charity. After submitting that information, you will have access to the name and phone number of the person associated with the address. You will also receive marriage and death certificates, civil and criminal court records, national and local court records and more. So, if this charity is a criminal who is trying to fund his next dirty deed, you will know about it. This is a great way to make sure that your hard earned money is really going to help people get better, get the things they need or whatever. Make sure that it's not going into the pockets of a criminal and a scammer.

Stop Prank Calls Now

Prank calls are one of the most annoying things in the entire world. If you have received one or two, you probably shook your head and wished that the caller would get a life and stop aggravating people. However, if you have received many, you probably started to get nervous. You may have wondered if this was really a prank caller or if it was someone that meant you harm. If the prank caller threatened you in some way, you probably definitely wondered if the caller meant you harm. It is not a light situation if you are afraid for your family or your children and your safety. This happens to many different people that have had to deal with this.

The trouble is that the police can't do much of anything unless there is a real threatening event that happens outside of the phone calls. This is enough to make you angry on top of feeling threatened. It's frustrating to know the phone number of the person but not the name. However, you can take action yourself and make the calls stop happening. Whether it's an unlisted home phone number or a cell phone number, it is possible to find out the identity of the caller without having the police trace the telephone calls.

Simply visit a website like PeopleProbe.info and enter the phone number of the person that called you. You can get the number from your phone bill or the caller ID. After you enter the phone number, simply wait a few seconds and you will be provided with the name and address of the person who is associated with the phone number. You can even assure yourself that they are not dangerous, or get enough information for the police to act by searching their criminal or arrest records which are also provided. Yes, you can find out if they have ever been charged with a crime, locally or nationally. You can see if it was a misdemeanor or a felony as well.

You do not have to deal with phone calls like this and be helpless. When you search their number at a site like PeopleProbe.info, you can get the truth about who is calling you. Then, either the police can take over, or you can answer the phone with their name and inform them that you have their address and more. Feel free to say it back to them. If you do this, chances are they will not call you back. If they are dangerous or do have a criminal arrest record, you should not answer the calls. Simply inform the police and allow them to do their job. They will consider the calls a priority and a threat if the person has a criminal record. If this is happening to you, don't take it any longer. Do something about it and show that prank caller that they have stumbled upon the wrong person's phone number.

Is There Someone Else?

When you meet someone that you really fall for, it is hard to think straight. That's why they say that love is blind. Everyone has met someone that they were really enamored over. That feeling is simply incomparable. You feel like you're walking on clouds, you are happy, excited and you feel like a kid again. You find yourself smiling stupidly at nothing at all and you are so caught up in the way that you feel and that other person that you wouldn't know it if the world stopped turning. However, how do you know if that person is really free?

Have they given you their home phone number or is it just a cell phone number that you have? Have you been to their home? Do they ever have to leave suddenly when the two of you are right in the middle of something? If you stop and think about it for a few minutes, does it seem as if they are hiding something from you? This can be something that is pretty hard to take. You don't want to think of the possibility of this person lying to you or being involved or married already. However, it happens every single day.

If you are unsure, there are a few things you can do to tell whether or not it is alright to continue on or if you need to have caution. Pay attention to the person. Do they act like they have other things to do? Are they always checking the time or do they always have to leave suddenly? If so, they may have lied to their families and have given themselves so much time to spend with you before they have to return to their 'other lives.' Have you met his or her family? If they have offered to let you meet their parents, siblings or other family, chances are they are not already involved. If it has been quite a while and they still haven't offered for you to meet their family, you might want to use a bit of caution.

Another thing you can do is visit PeopleProbe.info. All you have to do is enter their phone number or their address and you can find out all kinds of useful information. You will find out their home phone number and address if you don't already have it. You can find their marriage or divorce certificates so that you know if they are married or not. You can find out if they have ever been charged with a crime and much more. This is one great way to ease your mind. If they are not married, perhaps it is just a fear of commitment or something else keeping them from having you over to meet their family. Either way, at least you will know that you're not contributing to the pain of someone else. If you are in doubt, follow the advice and tips above so that you won't have to worry and wonder any longer.

Check for the Children's Sake!

Most parents drive their children around everywhere they go. Has your child ever told you to 'just drop them off here?' Most parents assume that their kids are too cool to be dropped off at the front door, or to be seen with their parents. It's one of those things we roll our eyes at and get over. However, what if your child is visiting somewhere he shouldn't be visiting. You just never know what kind of people your child can end up hanging around with. Next time you are asked to drop your child off in front of a house rather than walking him or her in, or next time your child wants you to drop him or her off down the block with no explanation, you may want to take note of the address. Here's why.

Your child could be visiting someone very dangerous or be placing himself in a terrible situation. You don't want to invade your child's privacy, however you don't want your child to become injured or hurt. As a good parent, you have to make sure that your child is safe and that you are doing all that you can in order to ensure that. If you would like to do this without making your child hate you, do it secretly! You can visit PeopleProbe.info and place an address or a phone number in the text box for ReverseGenie.com. You will instantly receive reports about who owns the house or the phone and what kind of person they are.

In fact, you can find out if they have ever been charged of a felony or a misdemeanor, you can have access to their criminal and civil court records and much more. You will instantly be able to tell whether your child is in danger or not from the people who live here. Your child will never know that you have checked, and neither will the people that you search for. Many times, parents have no idea how to check and make sure that their children are safe. This is one resource that watchful parents just can't live without.

If you have questions about where your child is going or who they are calling, all you need is the address or the phone number. All you have to do is type in either one and you don't have to know the name of the people who you are searching for. You can find out if they have ever been charged with a crime, you can see their marriage and death certificates and you can find out if they are a danger to your child. In this day and age, we can't afford to assume that our children are safe – we simply have to make sure. Utilize the tips and advice above along with this site or another site that allows you to search in this way, so that you can rest assured that your child is safe.

Who Am I?

Haley loved her adopted mom and dad to pieces. However, they were not the people that made her, and she always felt a need to find out who her biological parents were. She had tried for years to find information about her birth parents. Her adoptive parents only knew the name of her mother and where she used to live. The adoption agency that her adoptive parents went through was unwilling to provide her with any other information. She searched and searched the internet and the name of her mother. She couldn't find any information anywhere. She had started to think that perhaps she would never find out who her birth parents were. She had so many questions to ask them.

She wanted to look at them and see if she could find a resemblance. She wanted to know the reasons that she was put up for adoption and she wanted to thank them for giving her the opportunity to have the life that she had led with her beloved adoptive parents. She just couldn't get over the need to talk to them, to see them, to at least know that they were alive and where they were. Haley gave up for a while because she was out of resources and out of leads. However, upon another trip to the adoption agency, she found that there was a new girl working.

She wondered if this woman would give her the information she needed. As she asked, the woman began to shake her head before Haley even finished her question. Apologetically, the woman told Haley that she couldn't give out any information. Then, to Haley's surprise, the woman leaned closer to Haley and said, "I was adopted too. I can't give you any information about your birth parents, but I can give you the URL to a website that helped me out a lot." Then, the woman wrote a website down on a sheet of paper and handed it to Haley.

Back at home, Haley went to PeopleProbe.info and saw that there was a space for a name in CourtRegistry.org. She thought for a moment about the woman at the adoption agency and she typed in her biological mother's name. Within seconds, the website provided her with a new address and phone number. Haley absolutely could not believe it. All these years she had searched and within seconds, she had found out where her real mother was. After coming to terms with the situation, Haley finally dialed the number that had popped up on the website.

When the woman's voice answered, Haley said, "Hi. My name is Haley and I am looking for my birth mother. Did you give a baby girl up for adoption thirty three years ago?" There was a long pause and the woman on the other line began to sob. Haley couldn't believe that she had finally found her birth mother. Since then, she has gotten to know both her birth mother and half siblings. Her father had passed away some time before that, but Haley was thankful to know the rest of her family. She could never have found the information without PeopleProbe.info.

Is Your Spouse Cheating?

"I think my husband is seeing another woman. After claiming to work overtime every Thursday night for a month, I noticed his paycheck wasn’t any bigger. He has also been less intimate in the last two months. I hate to be a suspicious wife, but I decided to check his cell phone. There were several text messages from a girl named Liz, and allot of long calls to a phone number I don’t recognize. I can’t afford to hire a private investigator to follow him around. What can I do?” -
Susan M. Fargo, ND

Well Susan, I am hoping for the best, but for your own peace of mind you can certainly find out who has been calling him. Try reverse phone lookup at PeopleProbe.info. Good Luck!

“This will probably seem strange but I got a phone call the other day from my husband’s ex-wife. She claims that my husband and her are still legally married. I don’t want to approach my husband with this because I know him too well, and he will get defensive whether it’s true or not. Any suggestions?" – Karen H. Albuquerque, NM

Karen, your husband needs some communication therapy! OK but in the meantime you can certainly do a background check and search marital and divorce records for your husband and his ex-wife. Go to PeopleProbe.info.

“My husband has been emailing someone he met on the Internet. He doesn’t know I found out. The letters are romantic. Is there anyway I can find out who this is?” -Sharon S. Mexico, MO
Sharon you can do a reverse email lookup on PeopleProbe.info.

“Three months ago my wife left for a weekend and told me she was visiting her mother in Indiana. Yesterday when I was cleaning out the car I found a torn piece of a speeding ticket from Wisconsin dated that same weekend. We live in Kentucky. The name and license section on the
ticket is missing. Is there any way I can check and see if my wife was in Wisconsin that weekend.” - Tom Pilate Lexington, KY
Tom you can check out this website and see if her name surfaces. Go to
PeopleProbe.info. Good Luck Buddy!

Are you suspicious? You might have good reason to be. Over seventy percent of men and almost fifty per cent of women admit to being unfaithful at some point in their lives. Start by checking out the above mentioned website when you need to know!

Do You Know Who’s Watching You!

Unfortunately, sex offenders are lurking among us. They are in every state, every city, and most every town, and neighborhood in the country. Experts agree there is no question that there are very dangerous sexual predators in the United States and elsewhere, who will never respond to treatment, and need desperately to be incarcerated and contained. The problem is, you have no way to know by looking, because these predators appear just like anyone else. They prey on innocent people and often cloak themselves with an average image. They could be your neighbor, kid’s scoutmaster, or even a church member. The recent case of Clemson University student, Tiffany Souers of South Carolina is sadly just one of many cases. Her killer had a history of violence and sex crimes in Florida. Do you know all your neighbors? How well? You could live near Jerry Hamel, a sexual predator who molested a 5-year-old boy. "And then I done it again, and again." he recalled. The majority of sex offenders are men that target women and children.
People who can’t defend themselves. Kara was at home asleep when at one o’clock in the morning she awoke to see the dark figure of a man standing in the doorway of her bedroom. She screamed and woke her infant son who had been asleep in his crib across the bedroom and he
began to cry. This annoyed the intruder who ran to the crib and threw the baby against the wall knocking him unconscious. This pathetic criminal then raped her repeatedly and cut her arms with a knife. He warned her that if she reported him he would come back and kill the both of them. Kara’s son survived with some permanent hearing loss. Kara did report her attacker. He was a convicted sex offender living in her apartment complex who later admitted he had watched her every day for months, planning his attack. His conviction, however, took almost two years during which during he lived as a free man stalking Kara night and day and threatening her. He later murdered another woman and is serving a life sentence. You need to protect yourself and your children. It’s estimated that 72% of released convicted sex offenders repeat their crimes again. Almost eighty per cent say they will offend again given the opportunity. Do they live in your neighborhood? Find out right now at Peopleprobe.info.

How Was Your Date?

Internet dating is now the most popular way for people to meet. Makes sense in a busy world where people don’t have the time to join an endless amount of activities in the hopes of meeting someone. But the one thing these daters need to do is take just a few moments to check out who they are about to have an intimate meeting with! Most online dating services, including the most popular ones, do absolutely no background checks on members of any kind other than making sure of their credit card authorization! Anyone can join, including, convicted murderers, married people, deadbeat parents, burglars, sex offenders, embezzlers, thieves, repetitive drunk drivers, liars, and scam artists, to name a few. The Internet is a playground for many of these perpetrators. When people are lonely, they make mistakes. Janelle Armstrong was surprised when her dinner date was interrupted by a woman crying, ‘How could you,’ with two children calling him ‘daddy!’ After spending six weeks chatting and emailing with a new beau, Lucille Hudson, a young lawyer, was certain she had met the man of her dreams. He was intelligent, cordial, challenging, romantic, and everything she had hoped for. There were no ‘signs.’ He finally agreed to meet her at a local restaurant. When Lucille arrived she was greeted by a group of howling adolescent males. Seems the love of her life was a fifteen year-old boy out for kicks. Her humiliation and embarrassment have lingered and she has not dated for a year since the incident. While these cases are not life threatening, many are not so benign.

Kacie Rene Woody, of Conway, Arkansas, met the San Diego, California, man who killed her, on the Internet. Her body, along with the body of David Fuller, was found in a van at a storage garage in Arkansas, both suffering from gunshot wounds. Police suspect that the girl had been
sexually assaulted.

Take just a few moments and check out your potential Mr. Right or Ms. Right at PeopleProbe.info before you meet. Otherwise, you could end up with Mr. or Ms. Very Wrong!

The Runaway Bride

Wait! Before you say ‘I do’ maybe you should ask ‘What’s true?’ A recent bride in Oklahoma learned the hard way. She met her man on the Internet. The she spent two years getting to know him. But what did she know? Her man had bought her flowers every week, was attentive,
faithful, and everything she had hoped for. He attended church with her every week and became a volunteer Sunday School teacher and youth group leader. His charms won everyone over. Her friends and family all liked him. When he found out she had nephews involved in Cub Scouts, he went out of his way to become their Den Leader. He worked hard, running meetings, planning activities, and even paying for a camping trip. After planning her wedding for six months, spending over forty thousand dollars, she stood waiting in front of over three hundred guests, all
of the people closest to her, for over two hours while her father tried to track down her fiancé. Seems he was pulled over on a routine traffic stop on his way to the church and arrested on several old outstanding warrants for child molestation. The jilted bride was so upset, after everyone left, she collapsed and was hospitalized for a week. Later she learned he also had prior theft convictions. If only she had taken a few moments to run a background check at PeopleProbe.info. The fiancé would have been exposed and she would have been a happy bride, running away on her honeymoon! Con artists and those running from the past are often very crafty at hiding their true identities. They know that people are vulnerable in manners of the heart and seek out good people who have been taught to expect good from others. Before you get serious with your boyfriend or girlfriend, wouldn’t it be nice to know you’re not going to be abandon at the alter? What are you waiting for, find out what’s true, check them out right now at PeopleProbe.info!

The Wheels on the Bus

The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, all through the town. But who is putting their foot on the pedal to propel the bus through the town? Teachers are the ones who mold children’s minds, educating them and giving them the principals and skills to make it in the world. Teachers should be praised and commended for this but one person who flies under the radar is the bus driver. They drive your children to and from school. They are responsible for the well being and safety of your child once they set foot on that bus. There are plenty of good bus drivers out there but what about the bad ones?

Steve, a bus driver from northern Iowa had an addiction to pain killers and was in and out of rehab numerous times. He even did months of jail time because he was caught stealing in order to get money to pay for his next fix. This was all found out after he drove a bus full of kids into a ditch. He was fired the next day.

John, a bus driver in Montana was a convicted sex offender. His records showed he was on the sex offenders list but this was only found out after complaints from certain children who rode his bus. He was fired the next day Then there was Patty from New York. She was an alcoholic with a D.U.I on her record. She came to work with booze on her breath, ran a red light, and caused a wreck involving two other cars. She was fired the next day. No children in any of these cases were seriously hurt but they all have the same thing in common. It wasn’t until the driver messed up that a background check was done. It wasn’t until that person’s personal problems put the children in danger that a check seemed necessary. What is the best way to put an end to these types of stories? Stop it before it starts. By doing a simple background check on a possible driver before they are even hired, these kinds of things can be stopped. Click here to do a background check and make sure the wheels on the bus are safe for our children.

It’s 11 pm and your cell phone rings...

You pick it up thinking the worst. Who calls anyone that late at night unless
it is bad news, right? You are worried that your elderly mother has been
rushed to the hospital or that your son has been in a car accident. However,
when you nervously answer the phone all you hear is laughter and the person
or persons on the other end quickly hang up. Okay, so it was a crank call. That
happens. In fact, you can remember making a few in your younger days.
The problem is that these calls continue. The same number always
registers on your caller ID and your answer is always met by laughter.
Okay, so you could turn your cell phone off, but what if there really
is an emergency - your daughter has a flat tire or your wife has car
trouble on the way home from her second shift job – you will not
endanger your loved ones to accommodate some teenager’s whims. But what
can you do? The police are too busy to be bothered with nuisance calls.
With crime rates rising, every available officer is utilized tracking
down actual criminals, not bored teenagers. Every time you try to call
the number the phone is turned off and you are sent straight to a
nondescript voice mail. You could be a victim and replace YOUR cell
phone. This of course would result in you being assigned a new number
and thus foiling the caller. But why should you have to go to the
expense of doing this when you can go to PeopleProbe.info. This
site will allow you to type in the offending number and using their
reverse look-up system you will instantly know who the phone belongs
to, where they live, if they have a criminal background, and other
pertinent information. It could be just a crank call, but what if it’s
that disgruntled ex-employee, or an angry ex-spouse. Now you can know
and take steps to address the problem. If it is a crank call, Junior’s
parents probably won’t be too happy to hear about his antics. If they
don’t respond a call to the authorities claiming harassment will
probably take care of the problem. If it turns out to be someone of a
more dangerous nature, such as the disgruntled ex-employee or the angry
ex-spouse, you can take steps to protect yourself before the situation
escalates.

Find Your Biological Parents

If you or someone in you family is adopted, you may already know how difficult it is to learn about your biological parents and adoption. Many of these records are hard to find, especially if the adoption was closed at the time it was filed. That means that you will very often “hit a wall” and have to end your search before you find the answers you need. This makes the process of finding your biological parents even more challenging and stressful.

Making matters more difficult is the problem of geography. More and more children are adopted from a state that is not their eventual home state. This means that in order to get the records you need in the traditional method, you would possibly have to travel to another state or even across the country. Add the extra hassle of maneuvering through busy and strange city streets and arranging time away from work, and you have a recipe for disaster.

The Court Registry at Peopleprobe.info makes discovering the truth about your adoption and biological parents very easy and fun. All you have to know is a name and the state in which you were born, which can often be found on your original birth certificate. If you do not have access to this document, you can also find the record you need at the Court Registry by conducting a simple search on yourself. It is also very possible that you can access your adoption record this way as well.

Once you know the names of your biological parents, you can then use Peopleprobe.info to find out more information about them before you decide to make contact with them. You may learn that you have several siblings, which could influence your decision to pursue a relationship with your biological parents. You may also learn about any arrests, marriages, births, deaths, bankruptcies, or judgments filed against these individuals. All of this will help you shape your final decision.

If you do find that your biological parents had more children, you can also use Peopleprobe.info to learn more about your siblings. Before you possibly invite them into your life, it is a good idea to learn if the person has a violent or criminal history. Chances are this is not the case, but it is always better to be safe than sorry. The CourtRegistry can also help you look up any other relatives or associates of these siblings. By knowing who they choose to spend their time with, you will learn a great deal about the individual.

If you are not interested in contacting your biological parents but are curious about what happened to them, you can use Peopleprobe.info to obtain the answers you need to satisfy your curiosity. Peopleprobe.info is discrete, and no one but you will ever know that you conducted a search on an individual.

If you are eager to learn more about your adoption and your biological parents, use the services at Peopleprobe.info to put together the pieces of the puzzle.

Access State Records Instantly

It can often be difficult to know when people are being truthful with you. When people want to make a good impression, they make an effort to hide facts about them that they are not very proud of. However, these facts may be the very information that you need in order to decide whether of not you should associate with this person. These facts may also color the decisions that you make regarding that person. If you knew certain facts, perhaps you would make different decisions.

For example, it is not unusual for a friend to ask another friend for a loan in a time of need. In most cases, you can trust your friend to repay the loan in a timely fashion. However, you may not know that your friend has declared bankruptcy several times and has a tax lien filed against their home. This would mean that his loan would be a very high risk and would not be advisable at this time. In fact, it is highly likely that, armed with that information, you would not loan this person money, but without this knowledge, you are putting yourself at risk. By conducting a little bit of research beforehand, you can potentially save a friendship and prevent personal financial loss.

Many people are afraid to conduct a complete background search on their friends. This is may be because they are afraid that their friend will find out about their research or it may be because they do not want to invade someone’s privacy. When you conduct a search through the State Registry at PeopleProbe.info, it is absolutely anonymous. No one will ever be aware that a background search was ever conducted. These records are all a matter of public record, which means that you, as a citizen, have every right to access this information. You will not violate anyone’s privacy.

PeopleProbe.info is quick. You will have all the records you will need in a matter of a few seconds. If you conducted a traditional search, you would have to travel to different public offices, wait in line, and fill in forms in order to obtain the records you need. This could take days. In order to complete a search on PeopleProbe.info, you will only need to enter the person’s name and state of residence. Once you hit the “Search” button, all available records will be displayed on your computer screen immediately. This saves you valuable time and can even be completed during a commercial break.

Some of the records you will be able to access include: state court record reports, state civil and legal judgments, national and state bankruptcy records, state criminal history and arrest records, state liens, arrest warrants, and state property records. By having access to these records, you will learn a great deal about your friend. This will allow you to make the most informed decision possible.

Before loaning money blindly to a friend, take a few minutes to investigate their background on the State Registry at PeopleProbe.info. It may save you heartache in the end.

You Know My Number. . .

We've all been there. It's 2:00 AM and you wake from a sound sleep to the insistent ringing of your phone. You stumble out of bed, suddenly worried that someone may be sick, hurt, or worse. You reach for the phone, hoping that no one is hurt, and say, "Hello?" You're greeted with silence, a dial tone or a laugh. A million thoughts flash through your mind: Is this just some kid having a laugh at your expense? Could it be a disgruntled neighbor with a bone to pick, or something more serious, like a stalker or burglar?

Few things are more frustrating than a prank phone call. And they can become downright frightening if they continue. The feelings of helplessness and fear caused by prank phone calls have even led some people to violence! Maybe at one time, you were on the other end of that prank phone call. Do you remember calling a random home and asking if their refrigerator was running? Weren't you hiding behind the automatic anonymity that your phone supplied?

Wouldn't it be a relief to find a way to stop the harassment? Maybe it's just a kid having some fun, or maybe it's more serious than that. But it is your phone - your privacy - being invaded. For as long as there have been telephones, jokers and criminals have used them to terrorize and harass their victims with little or no chance of being caught. Only until recently has technology caught up to these prank callers and given them some pause by making Caller ID and *69 available to the public.

But, in many cases, cell phones have created a new and convenient way for prank callers to continue to harass you without giving away their identity. These days, technology has allowed us to strip away that cloud of anonymity and put a name to the number that identifies that prank caller! By using the Internet's ability to instantly scan millions of public records databases, you can discover the name, address, and many other interesting facts about the person calling you at 2:00 in the morning.

The use of reverse-search technology at PeopleProbe.info and the scores of public records available through these sites used to be the stuff of private investigators and officers of the law. But today, you can access this information, usually for a modest fee. This has helped level the playing field in the area of personal security and investigations.

There are many other reasons why one may visit a reverse-search site like PeopleProbe.info to locate the person behind the cell phone, such as researching unknown numbers on your bill, looking up who shows up on your “missed calls” list, or even investigating suspected infidelity of a spouse. But, for good old peace of mind, the bringing to justice of annoying prank telephone callers ranks right near the top of that list. Imagine being able to answer the phone the second time with, “Hello Tom. I'd stop calling if I were you. I'd hate to have to get the police involved.” A good night's sleep awaits you.

Do You Know Who Your Children Are Talking To?

Parenting is, no doubt, one of the most stressful, difficult jobs you will ever do. But, it can be the most rewarding as well, if you are diligent. The world, unfortunately, will do more to make the job harder than it will to help you. Sometimes, raising children feels more like being a bodyguard as we keep our eyes open and our head constantly swiveling looking for potential harm or danger. We never want to let our guard down, because it's so easy for our inexperienced kids to wander into trouble before they realize what they're doing.

Some parents have run into important ethical questions in the course of raising their children, and have had to decide where the line must be drawn between their kids' privacy and their own duty as parents. We know the importance of raising a child to make his or her own decisions and to learn from his or her own mistakes, but we also know that some mistakes can be too costly to allow our children to make them.

For example, what would you do as a parent if you stumbled across some unknown and unexplained number on your child's cell phone? You've tried to maintain an open line of communication and you think you know all of your child’s friends. They all come up on the Caller ID with their names and pictures, a feature your child is especially proud of.

So who is this mystery caller? Is it possible your child is mixed up in something he doesn't want you to know about? What if it's serious? Is it drugs, or cheating at school, who knows? Now what do you do? Well, the ethics of the situation leave room for deciding, and could paralyze you from taking action. But, if your gut decision is that, in this instance, your child's safety is more important than their privacy, you have a few choices about how to proceed. You could confront your child and demand an explanation. But this puts them in the position of needing to either reveal something they don't want to (and wondering how many other things you've snooped into,) or lying to you, growing the problem.

Another choice you have is to check out the number yourself. Go to PeopleProbe.info with reverse cell phone lookups and plug the number in. For a reasonable price, these sites can tell you whose number it is, and some impressively detailed information about the individual who has been calling your child. Maybe it's nothing. What a relief that is, when you realize your child is making good decisions and wasn't intentionally keeping anything from you. But, if it's not, and if you now need to confront the child for their own good, at least you have the details you need to reach the child on his own level. Yes, parenting can be a difficult, stressful job. But, when it's done right, the rewards far outweigh the effort, and your kids will thank you for putting forth that effort.

Who Do You Trust?

We've all been in the position of buying something large, and not really knowing the person who wants to sell it to us. You might be considering purchasing something from an individual rather than a company. There are benefits to this, such as a lower price, and less hassle. However, do you really trust the person you are going to be buying from? There are so many scam artists and thieves just waiting to take you for all you have. Wouldn't it be nice to know if the person you are buying from is an honest person? It would be nice to at least see if they have been involved in questionable situations in the past.

Well, you can. All you have to do is visit a criminal records site online, like PeopleProbe.info and place their name in the text box. When you search, you can find records to let you know if this person has ever been charged with a crime in the past. So, you can instantly know if someone else has been swindled or cheated by this person. That's a huge relief. To simply know if someone has honest intentions or not gives you the upper hand in any situation. You can get the important information you need to have in order to go ahead with the deal or steer clear from this person altogether.

This is an amazing way to save yourself from being scammed like so many other people have. If you are thinking of hiring a contractor for repairs or remodeling to your home, you can utilize this information as well. Many times, we risk a lot when we allow someone else to come into our home; our personal space. This gives them immediate access to everything we own, and it can be very easy for someone to steal from you. They may even come into your home with darker intentions than that. While it's not a good idea to walk around paranoid, in this day and age it is necessary to be more cautious than in the past. Keeping yourself safe from people who have bad intentions is very smart, and nowadays it is easier than ever to protect yourself. The only thing you need is a name, and you can find criminal records, arrest records, marital records, even death certificates and more at PeopleProbe.info.

This is one of the easiest ways to make sure that you, your family, and possessions are safe. While most people think that to find this information, you need a private investigator or the police, you don't. This information is now available to the public by going to PeopleProbe.info and typing in a name or other information you have about someone. It's nice to know that there are steps we can take to protect ourselves and our family members.

Do You Need to Play Nancy Drew?

There are some times that we all have to be an investigator for one reason or another. One of those reasons might be that you've met someone new and for some reason you are suspicious of them. Every once in a while, we will all meet someone that we just seem to be suspicious of. There doesn't even have to be a reason. Chances are, this has happened to you. You may feel as if something is strange about this person, or that you just don't feel right when you are around them. Sometimes this is paranoia, and sometimes, this is some kind of sixth sense. There are so many times when people have had this feeling and it turned out that the person had very bad intentions or was involved in something dangerous.

If you have had this feeling, there are some things you can do in order to calm your nerves. First of all, think about what you do know about them. Do you know their family? Do they seem alright? There is a possibility that this person just has a personality that you've never encountered before and so it seems strange to you. This is sometimes the reason that you will feel suspicious. However, there are sometimes that you may really be feeling something that is coming from your intuition. This person may be mixed up in questionable things, or may be just a bad person altogether. So, how do you know? What do you do in order to find out if it's your intuition, or just a different type of person?

That's simple. If you have their name, all you have to do is go to PeopleProbe.info and type it in. You will instantly have access to information about this person that will tell you if they have been involved in bad things before. You can see their federal court records, criminal and civil case records, and other things as well. This is the easiest way to find out if your suspicions are true or not. It makes it much easier to trust someone when you can see that they have no arrest records, or that there are no signs of criminal activity in their past.


If you do find signs of criminal activity, or records that confirm your original suspicions, you will know what to do. If need be, you can contact your local police and inform them that this person has a warrant out for their arrest. If there are no current warrants, you can still stay away from them and protect yourself. Chances are, if they have been involved in criminal activity once or more than once before, they may still be involved with it. In this day and age, it sure does pay to know who your friends are, and who you should stay away from. This is helpful for warning your other friends as well. If there is someone that simply seems 'not right' to you, and you want to know if they are who they say they are, then go check. You might be very glad that you took the time to really find out who it is that you're associating with.

Online Friends

The internet is amazing; there's no doubt about that. It gives us the power to reach out and instantly communicate with someone half a world away. We are able to make great friends from places all over the world, from your hometown, to many continents away. However, another thing the internet brings us is anonymity. Someone can talk to you and give you the impression that they are one person when in reality they are someone totally different.

You can easily be lied to and scammed online without much trouble. You might think that you have made a great friend, and in reality you could be talking to someone who is looking to scam you. Worse, you might be talking to someone who is dangerous. The truth is that this happens to good people every single day. Scammed and tricked by people who they thought were their friends. Unfortunately it's easy for these people to scam you because they think that there is no way you'll ever be able to find out who they are. However, you can. By simply visiting PeopleProbe.info, you can type in a very small amount of information and find out who you are really talking to.

Even if the person you are communicating with online isn't using their real name, you can put in their e-mail address and find out who it belongs to. You can also be privy to information such as their court records, criminal and civil records, warrants, address, and much more. This is one of the best ways to ensure that you are not tricked or scammed by someone online. You should never give out any information that con-artists could use to compromise your identity or funds. This includes banking information, credit card numbers, social security numbers or other personal information.

This is especially true if you take advantage of online dating sites. While they are a great way to meet new people and find someone who is right for you, they are also a big attraction for scam artists. Many people have thought they had found the right person for them and communicated with this person for quite some time, only to be tricked. These people use the power of emotion and then blind side you with one scam or another. In fact, there are entire sites devoted to letting you know who the scammers are and what they look like; even examples of the letters they will send to you. The truth is that while this is helpful, they certainly can't get them all. Men and women all over the world have been scammed by people who were supposed to be their friends. If you want to be sure that the person you are talking to has never been arrested or accused for scams or anything else, simply visit PeopleProbe.info and enter in their name or e-mail address. These days, it pays to protect yourself.

Getting Discount Service?

Ever had someone tell you about a great friend they have who does excellent plumbing, electrical, or other type of work? Perhaps you are getting a great discount on the service if you hire this friend. Hey, home improvement or repair can really be expensive, so at the hint of a discount most people jump right on it. However, are you really getting what you pay for? Have you asked if this friend is licensed, but you're not completely sure?

The last thing you want is to pay someone for less-than-perfect service simply because you were told that they were licensed. Many people fall for this all the time. Unfortunately, many victims don't know how to check to see if a contractor is licensed. Then, the contractors come into the home and make the problems worse than they were to begin with, or leave without completing the job. This can be extremely frustrating! Although you're getting a discount, you're still paying for the service, and when it comes up incomplete or botched, it can be very disappointing.

So, is it worth it to get a discounted price from a friend? It could be. There are genuine and good contractors out there who are very willing to offer a discount for a friend of a friend. You just need to be able to make sure they are licensed and that you aren't going to end up getting the short end of the stick. With websites like ReverseMobile at PeopleProbe.info, you can enter the contractor's cell phone number and find out several things.

You can find out the address, name, age, and address history. However, the real gem is finding out whether or not they are licensed. This way, you can save that work for someone who is qualified to do it rather than someone who is not. You don't want to end up paying more when you think you're getting a great discount, so simply check to see if the friend's friend is all he is cracked up to be.

It's extremely easy. By simply entering the cell phone number and then waiting a few seconds, you will be provided with all of the information you need to make an educated decision as to whether or not you should really hire this person. Your goal is to make your home look great and keep your wallet fat. Take serious preventative steps to make sure you're not going to come out with more to pay and more damage to fix.

Need to Find Someone?

My absolute favorite teacher of all time was my sixth grade Science teacher, Mrs. Keilborn. She was funny and laid back and took a real interest in her students and their educations. She always had a smile and a friendly word for me, and I think she favored me out of all of her other students. That was quite all right, because she was my favorite teacher for sure. It wasn't until years later that I realized what a profound impact she really had on me.

In my high school and college years, I fell back on advice that she had given me in sixth grade. Even in my parenting years, I found myself treating my children the way that she treated her students – with a loving and gentle demeanor. Her reprimands were different from anyone else's. Rather than angry words or yelling, she demonstrated what we had done wrong and in a way where no one would be pointed out. She was a really great teacher.

I found myself as an adult wanting to tell her what an impact she had on me. However, I lived in a completely different state. I tried calling the school, but she no longer taught there and they wouldn't release any information to me. I was sort of left without any options. I thought it was quite sad that I would never be able to tell her what a great teacher she was. That was until a friend told me about PeopleProbe.info and Webstigate. It is the ultimate resource for those who need to find someone and don't have very much information.

You simply type in the name of the person you are looking for, and you are immediately given access to all sorts of information, including address, phone number, and much more. I was able to find Mrs. Keilborn's address and phone number quite easily. When I called, she couldn't believe it! I finally got to tell her exactly what she had meant to me while I was in her class, and even over the years.

You can find anyone you need to find as well. Whether you're searching for a long lost friend, a favorite teacher, or the one who got away, you can utilize this website to find out information on that person. You can get serious information there too. If you are trying to find out criminal records, arrest records, civil records, or something similar, you can do it there. You can perform employee searches, friend searches, or if you want to find out about the people to whom your children are exposed; it's all available to you. All you need is a name! Start your search today so you can tell that one special person just how much they meant to you!

Before Selling Your Next Car...

Are you in the business of selling new or used vehicles? If so, you probably know the ins and outs of how to sell cars, how to appeal to someone's needs, and even the importance of marketing your company. Many salespeople get commissions from each car they sell, and the company makes a good bit of money from each one. What if the person you sell the car to doesn't pay the payments, though? Here's one thing you need to know before you sell your next vehicle.

Lots of car companies check the credit of those they sell the cars to. However, smaller car companies may not. You will see this many times in smaller towns or rural areas. There is a trust with these kinds of companies that is respectable. However, when you lose money on a vehicle that someone doesn’t pay for, your company is at risk. Then you have to pay fees to someone in order to have the vehicle repossessed, if you can find it.

In order to save yourself from this kind of trouble, it's a good idea to check the credit of your applicants. You may want to check other things as well, such as whether or not they have had any other judgments against them, or if they have a criminal background. If you sell a car to someone who is irresponsible enough to have committed a crime, or even several, do you think they're going to be responsible enough to make the car payments? If they have many judgments against them, and have been irresponsible enough to go into debt with other payments, do you think they're going to be responsible enough to make the car payments?

By entering just a name at PeopleProbe.info and doing a instant background report, you can find out the information you need to make sure that your next sale will be a complete success. When you enter the name, you wait a few seconds and you will have access to their criminal background records, their civil background records, and even whether or not they have filed for bankruptcy. Obviously, if they have several judgments against them or if they have filed for bankruptcy, you may want to refuse to sell them a car.

If they have other payments they couldn't make, what's to say they can stay up-to-date with the car payments? Unfortunately, in the vehicle business, you really need to be sure your customers are going to be able to make the payments and be reliable. Using the information above, you can be sure that your next sale is a success all the way through.
