Careful!
I used these guys for screening tenants. Little did I know. I approved a tenant to go into one of my houses based on their information. Long story short, we had to go in with deputies to clear the house, because they we running a drug operation from the house! I wish I was kidding.
I talked to customer service, and they said that people can 'opt-out' of showing the information on their site. Great. So now I only can find the stupid criminals ....
I wanted my money back, but I got a "You were satisfied with us before, so that can't happen". They kept explaining that this should be used alongside a real screening service, so that if you found something that looked fishy, you can go to a site they recommend to do a real check. What!?!
Not sure what you need them for. If I don't find anything on someone, I need to be sure there is nothing to be found. Call customer service, and ask that specific question. You can reach them at 1800 718 8997. You will not be sorry for checking first.
In summary, I would not recommend People Finders to a friend.
