    I am being double billed. It looks like it is a business practice very shady.The FTC now has a new division dedicated to this type of hustle. They came at my company and we cast 150k per month to fohhh. I am in month 9. I suggest some calm and walk me through your logic. I am giving you a chance to make things right. It would be a great idea to get back to me early before my weekiy call with FTC

    Deceptive practice of having you spend tons of time entering info and waiting for a report to be compiled, and then hitting you with a request for payment before you can see the report. I was expecting that, though, and was willing to pay the $28. Two points on that - if you go through the whole process and then wait a while before paying the $28, they'll send you an email taking 50% off, so you get the report for $14. Also, know that you are purchasing a monthly subscription, so they will charge your card at $28 per month (not the discounted rate they offered for the first month) every month unless you cancel, which I did immediately.In addition, the report is not very good. Lots of inaccuracies and omissions.

    This is a total waste of time and a scam!! I used myself just out of curiosity and after going through everything and answering the questions it finally comes to the end and then requires some form of payment in order to receive and read the results. Why dont they let you know up front that its going to be almost $30 for a one month membership that you have to sign up and pay for in order to receive and read the report!!?? Seems like a very dishonest business practice! The old bait and switch scam!! Please dont waste your time or money with this website and or company. The funny thing is that I have yet to read one single positive review about this website and from what I have read in addition to the bait and switch scam there seems to be a lot of wrong information about the people theyre looking up. That is not a good practice at all because theyre going to cause problems for people with their jobs and or relationships with loved ones and family members!! Very shady and just a huge waste of time and a scam!!

    In order to submit my comments I had to give it 1 star.It was brought to my attention Truthfinder deems me a convicted felon who was sentenced.NOT TRUE AT ALL! I now know why job offers fell thru.Thankfully, my current employer brought it to my attention. I want the information removed immediately.My middle initial is incorrect & half of my supposed relatives,Ive never heard of.This site has totally defamed my name & removing my information is only the first step to right their horrible wrong.*****************************

    A complete waste of time and money. trying to look pull a detailed and accurate backround check on my self, and after a myriad of faux timers, leading statements telling me how shocked i am going to be about this "report", and charging me once for a whole month of membership and another charge for downloading the "report" , I received the most half cooked "report" with my basic information that I either provided or could have, lots of inaccurate info. Like 4 pages of sexual offenders in my area, that I, one didn't request, and two could just look up online for free if I was inquiring. All the information I actually wanted "could not be found", including something as simple as place of birth? complete scam

    I was a victim of a scammer.I researched all I could find out about the scammers. They trusted me as well and I have their phone number and they will talk with me. I am was looking to get more information on Truthfinder. They show you things they are searching and make you think they found information. Like a Mug shot.I wanted to see the *** report so I gave my credit card. Big mistake. I was charged for many things. A total of $29 and change. I then got the report. Truthfinders had less information then what I found own my own. I immediately canceled my subscription. I had to cancel three separate subscriptions. This was just as bad as the Scammers I was researching. *** DO NOT WASTE YOR TIME OR MONEY ****
