ReversePhone, LLC

ReversePhone.com is a reverse phone lookup service that allows users to identify unknown callers from landlines, cell phones, and unlisted numbers. By searching billions of public records, the service can provide information that may include the caller's name, location, and complaints about the number. While primarily used to screen for potential spam and scam calls, the platform can also reveal additional details such as email addresses and social media profiles. This accessibility of personal information poses privacy risks, as it could be exploited by malicious actors for doxxing, stalking, or harassment. Individuals can protect themselves by being cautious about the information they share publicly and by requesting to have their data removed from such databases. The service states that searches are private and the person being looked up is not notified.
