Uncovering someone's hidden past is neccassary for many different reasons, but what's the best way?
We researched the top background checks of 2016 and what we found was quite dissapointing.
How We Evaluated Each Program
Our process for evaluation was simple, we performed searches and record checks on ourselves to start.

We started with just phone numbers, and emails to see if we could get basic information (name, date of birth, age, estimated income), and current address.
We also took information from public newspapers on convicted criminals, and sex offenders so we knew what was accurate. With this information we searched for criminal convictions, arrest records, civil judgments, DEA license info, and employement – knowing if what we uncovered was current and accurate.
Our Shocking Discovery
After running searches on dozens of programs, we were shocked at the number that didn’t perform. Most of these services just did not live up to their claims. Here’s what we found…
Most of the services couldn’t even locate a current address for us, giving outdated information that was mostly useless. We were upset to see this, with them claiming to be able to find employment history, criminal records, credit history and so much more. The information we were getting from these services could have been found for free in the phone book!
Most of these services were filled with smoke and mirrors, practically a ripoff. However, there were a few services that gave us nearly all of the information we were looking for (phone numbers, work and home addresses, email addresses), criminal records, residential history, employment history and so on.
Below we have compiled a list of services that we trust, these programs out performed others and lived up to their claims. If you are looking to uncover important information about an individual, these are the programs to use…
