subject: Reverse Number Tracing - Who Owns This Phone Number? [print this page] Be honest - there are times when we all wish we could find out who a phone number belongs to. Of course, if it's a friend that's ringing you will recognise the number - if your friend is programmed into your phone his or her name will come right up.
Sometimes though you just see a number. Or maybe it's not your phone. Who is Kaileigh that keeps calling your boyfriend? Her name and number are on his phone rather a lot. You are suspicious of where he was last night, which is why you are looking at his phone while he's in the shower.
Now what do you do? You can't use his phone to call her. You need to use the internet to find a reverse phone lookup site. If you can find her number listed you can find out quite a lot of information about her. You should be able to find her name and address as well as her age.
Perhaps you are receiving annoying texts. It's easy for bullies to send threatening or upsetting texts. They think they are anonymous and that they will scare you. But there is something you can do. Don't let the bullies get away with it.
If you are still in school, always tells your parents or a teacher. Use a reverse phone trace website to see if you can find out who the bully is. They can't hide just because they are using a cell phone. Even if the phone isn't registered to them, you will be able to find out whose phone they are using. Chances are that it will be their own - most bullies aren't too bright! With just a few clicks of your mouse you can find out who is sending the texts and, if appropriate, call the Police armed with the evidence you need.
