If
you type a type a person’s name into the web, you
can often come up with hoards of information about
that person – such as seeing photos from their last
vacation, current marriage status, their volunteer
work, and much more. Internet searches are almost
always free with one common exception: if you have a
phone number and want to find out who it belongs to,
you will likely have to join a reverse phone
directory.

Cell
phones give teens a sense of freedom and privacy.
Unfortunately, a lot of teens are abusing this
privilege and engaging in illegal or dangerous
activities – like the recent trend of “sexting” and
sending nude photos. As a parent, it is your
obligation to find out what your children are doing
on their cell phones and who is contacting them.
There are many applications and reverse cell phone
directories which can help keep your children safe. |

Do
you remember when you used to get junk mail telling
you to send in $100 and claim a massive prize? In
most cases, the prize never existed and thousands of
people lost their money. We started to see less mail
scams because the scams instead went online through
email. Scammers love the internet because it makes
it so easy anonymously reach so many people. Now,
the scammers are taking advantage of people in
another way: scam SMS messages. The prevalence of
these scams makes it necessary to use a reverse
phone directory. |

If
you have a landline phone number, then you will be
included in your local phonebook by default. You
have to ask your phone company to keep your
information anonymous if you don’t want your
information public (and this usually costs a fee).
There are no official phonebooks for cell phone
numbers. So, you might think that means your cell
phone number is private and can’t be used to access
your personal information. Wrong! Just signup to a
reputable reverse cell phone directory and type in
your cell phone number. You will not only see your
name come up, but may also see other personal
information too. For people who value privacy, it is
unfortunately very difficult to get yourself removed
from these listings. |

If
you got rid of your landline for a cell phone, you
may have expected all those annoying telemarketers
to stop calling. Despite the fact that cell phone
numbers are not listed in any official phonebook.
Telemarketers can still easily get a hold of your
cell number. When telemarketers call you on your
cell, it is even more annoying since you it may cost
you minutes to answer the call! |
