Search FOREWARN in Seconds

  • FOREWARN provides instant & mobile identity verification and public records (criminal, property, court, etc.) for over 98% of the U.S. adult population.

  • Searching by mobile or residential phone number: FOREWARN has coverage of roughly 90% of mobile and residential phone numbers, so you should be able to search and verify approximately 9 out of 10 people from their phone number alone.

  • In the 10% or less of cases where you have the phone number of a real person (not belonging to a company) and you cannot find them in FOREWARN, this does not necessarily mean they are a dangerous person who is spoofing a fake phone number, using a disposable/burner phone (typical of criminals), or otherwise hiding their identity, but it does mean that those possibilities cannot be ruled out yet and absolutely no exceptions should be made with your safety protocol... additional diligence and caution is definitely required.

  • Searching by first and last name: When you cannot find someone by their phone number alone (or you do not have a phone number), simply click the “Don’t have a phone number?” link to switch to the alternate search method by first and last name. It is best to start broad (first and last name, possibly state) and then only add criteria as needed (city, zip code, age range, date of birth, etc.) to narrow down the results.

  • Name search tip: When searching by name, if there are more than 100 results to your query, FOREWARN will display “Too many records found” and prompt you to re-run your search using additional criteria.

  • Phone search tip: If you search missed calls from telemarketing companies (typically they will not leave a voice message), you will get the result “Record not found” because that phone number has never been owned by, or associated with, a person.
