I came across PeopleSearchNow and want to know if it works for phone lookups.
I’ve seen a few of these “people search” sites pop up. From what I’ve seen, they usually aggregate publicly available data. It might give you some basic info, but don’t expect too much. Sometimes it’s just name and location.
I’ve had mixed results using these types of services. A lot depends on how common the name is and how much info is out there.

@quicklookup I’ve actually tried PeopleSearchNow a few times over the past year, and honestly, it’s pretty hit or miss. Works decent for landlines but mobile numbers are trickier - sometimes you get basic info like name and general location, other times it’s a complete dead end.
For what it’s worth, I’ve had better luck with TrueCaller for mobile lookups, especially if the person has their number registered there. PeopleSearchNow feels more like a basic data scraper that pulls from public records and social media.
The interface is clean enough, but don’t expect miracles. I’d say it works maybe 60% of the time for getting at least some useful info. Worth trying if it’s free, but wouldn’t pay premium for it personally.
