There are different methods we can use to unravel the identity of a cell phone owner but not all these methods are good. The public directories such as the white or yellow pages are only good if the telephone number you are searching for is a land line number.

The major disadvantage of using the white or yellow pages is that on most some occasion the information generated are outdated. This is because some people are always on the move and the the white pages are only updated every six months.
In addition, the services of white pages are greatly hampered by the privacy laws guiding cell phone numbers. Cell phone numbers are mostly unlisted and cannot be published on the public domains. Since most people have migrated to using mobile phones, the usefulness of white pages are becoming doubtful.
Trying to use the internet search engines to lookup a cell phone number can be likened to a sheer waste of time. We acknowledge some numbers do float on the internet because they were previously registered at such sites like the social networking site, blogs, message boards, forums etc. The truth is that most times the details accompanying such numbers are mostly false or outrightly incorrect.
For a convenient cell phone numbers search, the services of reverse phone lookup directories have to be employed. Most professional reverse phone lookup directories operate by paying to have access to the databases of various telecommunication companies. All the information are then compiled in a central database from where they are regularly updated and made available for their subscribers for a fee.
