Criminal Background Check - How to Find Criminal Records Online the Easy Way!

In the past, the only way you could do a criminal background check would be to hire a private investigator.
Today you can do it in only a few minutes and in the privacy of your own home.

# Step 1
You can use the search engines, such as Google and Yahoo. Enter the individual's full name into the search box and put it inside quotation marks to get more relevant results. It would be very helpful to enter even more data, like their date of birth, their address and their social security number. Most local newspapers publish a weekly list of arrest reports online, so you might be lucky enough to find what you are looking for. Keep in mind that even if you don't find anything, this doesn't mean that the person doesn't have a record.
# Step 2
You can try visiting the National Sex Offender Registry to find out if the individual has ever committed a sexual crime and the Family Watch Dog's website that keeps track of sex offenders who have been released from prison. In the department of motor vehicles you can discover if they have been arrested for reckless driving and by visiting the Federal Bureau of Prison's site you will find an inmate locator service.

If none of these methods yield any results, then it might be a good idea to use a paid service.

There are many legitimate companies online that can provide you with information, such as:

Criminal, Arrest and Jail Records
Pedophiles listed in your neighborhood
Marriage and Divorce Records
People's Phone Numbers & Addresses
Census and Civil Records
Bankruptcies
Parolees
Missing Children and Adults
Most Wanted Criminals
