Reverse Cell Phone Lookup Service

By Alex Grim


Have you ever received a call from an unknown individual and the person on the other line does not identify himself? This makes us very curious about whom the caller might be. A lot may be playing on your mind. You may think that it can be a friend who needs help or a long lost friend who wishes to see you. In some cases, others may think of the mystery caller as a stalker, especially if the unidentified caller frequently appears on your phone's call registry. To clear any confusion and assumptions, one can use the technology called the reverse phonenumber lookup.

A reverse phone number look up is a newly developed technology by engineers that allows individuals to search for the identity of the owner of a certain phone number. Since a telecommunications carrier has phone numbers associated with the registered owner's personal information, it is used by the engineers to retrieve necessary information about a certain number.

The first thing that usually comes to mind when we receive a call from an unknown individual is to look it up on the white or yellow page. It is only then that we would realize that it is impossible to find the owner of the number in a white or yellow page since name is necessary in using such archive.

Many would like to know the identity of a certain caller especially if it involves the security of the family. One cannot deny that the young generation nowadays is exposed to scandals and violence and this is all through the Internet. Children may give their phone number to a stranger they met online and they may be at risk at being a victim of online scammers and people who may have ill intentions towards teens and children alike. Reverse phone number look up is also used by law enforcing agencies to identify the origin of a certain call which may help in assisting people who needs help. This is only possible if the phone number is publicly accessible.

When doing a reverse phone number lookup, one would be able to know where the call is coming from and who the phone number is registered to. One would also know which telecommunications carrier the number is registered with. The result of the search would also contain the names of the businesses and people who are near where the phone has been registered.

The function to do a call reverse lookup is one of the services offered by some telecommunications carrier to its customers. However, not all carriers allow this thus keeping the customer's information private is their priority. With this, outside companies or third party companies come in the picture. They are the ones who obtain information and provide it to the general public. There are many websites that offer to do a reverse phone number search. Some would do it for free whiles others offer it for a certain annual charge.
