Find a Name and Address With a Phone Number

Its always been tricky to do reverse lookups, it's been nearly impossible until recently actually. But now there are online tricks to easily find someone's name or address with a phone number.

Lets say you've been getting prank called, or a strange phone number keeps calling and hanging up -- you'd want to know what's going on right? Of course; telemarketers and other phone calls are annoying enough. So maybe you try looking up the phone number in Google or some other search engine, but it comes up with no results -- it only really works with bigger telemarketing phone numbers anyway.

Calling them back doesn't do much, they can just hang up on you or not answer. And unless it's really annoying, you don't want to call the police and escalate things. You just want to know who it is, then talk to the prank caller's parents or walk down the street to talk to them yourself.

Having a reverse cell phone number finder is also incredibly handy when you're heading to a party and you get lost. The host isn't answering since the music is probably turned up and all you have is a phone number. Just plug it in and you're on the way.

Since most online reverse lookups tap into public records, you can also see a lot of information attached to someone's name. You can, for instance find DUI records, even courtroom financial records.

All in all, the ability to find a name and address with a phone number can be incredibly handy. You'll have the best luck if you find a public record search online.
