Not-So-Secret Cell Phone Numbers
April 9, 2010
Tired of unwanted phone calls that show up on caller id only as “unknown name”? Even if the caller is using a cell phone, which many solicitors and crank calls do, you can learn who’s calling you, says private investigator George Martin in “How to look up Unlisted & Unregistered Phone Numbers — Online” on People Records Zone. “Telemarketers, stalkers, prank callers, creditors, and many others could be harassing you under the false assumption that you cannot track them, writes Martin. “Their assumption is false because, thanks to the internet, you can now discover precisely who owns the particular cell phone number that has been calling you. All the recipient has to do is enter the complete phone number into one of many free unlisted-number search directory services, and the caller’s name will be revealed, says Martin. Knowing who is making the calls may not stop all unwanted calls, but if anonymity is important to the caller — especially those with ill intent — it should help.

Cell phone numbers are not stored in a directory or database, neither is there any place online where one can simply input a number and instantly have the owner’s name & address revealed. The only was to ascertain an unlisted or cellular number’s owner info is to have it investigated by someone who specializes in such research. There are a few such companies on the web, and far more who are nothing but liars and con artists. As an investigator who specializes in phone number research, I can say with certainty that any site offering “instant results” or “unlimited searches” or promising software that will make you a detective like “Net Detective” are run by dishonest people who DO NOT PROVIDE ANYTHING USEFUL.
