If you are interested in finding out more about the person who called you, the best technique is to try a reverse phone number lookup.

Wondering who called your home, office, or cell phone? Since cell phones have caller I.D., it is common to see a missed call or a message and wonder who the call was from. The answer might be a friend with a new number, a wrong number, appointment reminder, creditor, long lost love, estranged relative, or even someone you don’t want to hear from with a hijacked phone number. There are also people who text you, trying to steal two-factor authentication codes from you in an attempt to hack your online accounts or even your Apple Pay. Some scammers might even steal your number by hacking public wi-fi networks, in hopes to scam you out of your money. Other times, you might want to know if someone you’re calling or texting still owns the phone number you are trying to contact.

How to Use Social Catfish’s Reverse Phone Number Lookup

Step 1

To start your reverse phone number search go to SocialCatfish.com. Social Catfish is an algorithm based search, which will review over 200 billion records – including all major search engines (such as Google and Bing, plus others), white pages, business phone numbers, change of address records, as well as Federal, State, and Country databases. Chat apps, social media apps, and websites will also be reviewed.

Step 2

After accessing Social Catfish, enter the phone number you’re looking for, including the area code.

Step 3

What will appear next is a list of results showing the name(s), address(es), image(s), relationships, line type (home, cell, etc.), carrier, email(s), username(s), and social profile(s) associated with the phone number you searched. If you see several names, you will be able to discover who had the number most recently and any aliases used by the phone number’s owner or others who have used that phone number in the past.

‘Relationships’ will link to any known relatives. Related email addresses will appear, while images and usernames will be highlighted or shown through social profiles.

Step 4

After signing up for unlimited searches billed at $5.73 for eight days (and then $27.48 a month), Social Catfish will keep a history of any searches, to make further research easy. Upon reviewing your reverse phone number results, follow-up searches for more detailed information are included free. These let you investigate the individual(s) name, username, email address(es), or even reverse image search(es).

Tip: If names appeared during the reverse phone number search, look those up first. Next, search for any usernames that appeared and review links to social profiles. From there, you can use those accounts to (save and) search the individual’s profile image(s) and complete a reverse image search.

We promise and deliver easy hassle-free cancellations. Don’t wonder who called or texted you. Find out the modern way, as reverse searching is easy, fast, and fun!
