this is scary. for real i took a cybersecurity class in the university last semester. and this website is the worst case of identity exposure... the worst yet, they won many lawsuits...

so if i pay 7.95$ i can get hold of the president's daughter(s) ??

what if a terrorist paid 7.95$ to get the exact location of a person he wants to assasinate?

dude... so i was just wondering if the DHS is any of use in this case...

i am looking for someone

I have watched someone committing credit card fraud use this service to gain over $10,000 in one night by wiring themselves money...good thing the courts are on the ball when it comes to protecting innocent civilians

as one has already commented, it is really scary. i have just come to the u.s. and already intelius can give anyone willing to shell out an amount less than $10.00 my name, present address and info on my family members. the only document i remember writing such information is on my immigration papers. what's going on in this country????

Can you please tell me how to get in contact with Intelius without having to give my credit card number

maybe if we all got together and presented a lawsuit against all these companies our privacy would not be invaded?

I joined this outfit and did a (maiden) name search with social security number . I got a report with a man's name with the same last name, it was not a former husband or father. Of course the info was pretty much bogus. I paid more money to do the same search with a married name and the same social security number. The second report was accurate.

Intelius will not give me my money back for the first report! These people are crooks.

Intelius is a bunch of weasles. You can enter a nonsense name and they will tell you it is in their database just to get you hooked for their 8$ fee to give you information, For instace I entered Bogwatgifma Mcleithaiz (aproximatly) and I got a response

"Bogwatgifma Mcleithazi is in our database!"

I wish I used them so I could sue them.

My son's credit card number was stolen and used online at Intelius. The person who used the card did not use the name on the credit card. Nice checking on the part of Intelius--apparently your "personal" name and your credit card name don't have to match. Wow.

where can I send the required money for Intelius ?

I just joined this group...first time user. I gave basic name because the initial search showed that it contained information from 2004. They charged my account $7.95 .... and immediately sent me information which was at least 5 years old. What a rip off......

i want his e mail address or any info about where he is

My name does not have correct info and I can't find anyone that is correct. Intelius users beware.

I paid them money and got bogus old inaccurate info, they won't refund my money they want to give me a credit for a free report. Why would I want a free report when the info is not accurate. I would like to know how to sue them. Maybe a class action lawsuit. Anybody interested.

Why does this form ask you for a url: I put in the url I was complaining about and it doesn't show my original post it takes you to the bogus company I want to sue.
I paid money for a report from Intelius, it was inaccurate old info and they won't refund my money, all the want to do is issue me a credit for a free report. Why would I want a free report that is going to give me inaccurate information. How can I sue these people, or should I put a dispute on my credit card? Maybe we should do a class action lawsuit against these people. They advertise they are the most accurate reports. That's false advertising, especially when they emailed me back after I complained. He was their email to me: "Hello! Thank you for contacting the Intelius customer service team! We are sorry to hear that you did not find the information that you were looking for through the Intelius public records search. Public records come from: marketing surveys, land deeds, catalog purchases, voter registrations, lawsuit filings, court records, magazine subscriptions, address changes and so on. As an aggregator of public records, our services will provide you the most up to date information from public records sources. We access a variety of different public records sources from our data partners. As you can imagine, some of the sources are courthouses, county and other government offices. These offices can be slow to update public information. We are as current as they are, but some of the updates are out of our immediate control. Because of this, we cannot guarantee the information or provide refunds. We apologize for this inconvenience. While we are unable to provide refunds, I would be hap! py to issue you a credit for a free people search on the website. Please let me know if you would welcome the credit for a free search."

The owner of Intelius is Naveen Jain. He's changed the name of it to background.check.addresses.com He lives in Seattle, WA. He's from Pakistan. He's been charged many times with federal crimes. Do a search under his name on google and you can find out a lot about this scum bag. Click on all his search phrases and it will cost him over $5 every time you do since he's on the sponsered search which is pay per click. His search phrases would be background check, background search, criminal background check, criminal record, and any others you can think up pertaining to background checks. Also do a charge back on the credit card charges. Don't let him take your money. Also call the attorney generals office in Seattle on him or do it online. You can do a better business bureau complaint online also.

I wish I had come to this site before I paid $30 to Intelius for a worthless search, but I don't think I will have any problem disputing this with my credit card company. Thanks for the information on Naveen Jain -- will definitely complain to the Seattle AG's office.

ive paid twice for intelius to find a criminal background and i got nooo results they get your money than give you nothing
