What is the Spokeo people finder?

Spokeo is a service that allows users to search for any individual by name, email address, phone number, user name or physical address. Spokeo requires a subscription to use its people search tools, and each subscription has a monthly search limit.

Spokeo uses information acquired from social networks, phone records, public records and other sources to build profiles on individuals. This information can be used for the purposes of reuniting with family, learning about customers and potential business partners or for entertainment. Spokeo prohibits the use of its service for the purposes of employee, tenant, insurance or credit screening and does not offer credit report information.
