Intelius

Intelius, a website that helps users find information about others like back ground check and other spying jobs which sells personal information obtained from public records and marketing databases, including addresses attached to cell-phone numbers. Just by plugging in the number, and giving the credit card number to pay the small fee, and received a number which will help to find the target. The company has been trying to go public despite hundreds of scam complaints, and the atrocious legal records. Intelius executive sentenced for imprisonment for allegedly contacting witness. The vice president of Bellevue-based Intelius, charged with lying to a grand jury about strip-club sex acts, was taken back into federal custody allegedly for contacting a witness who works at the club and planning to meet her in Las Vegas. The vice president at Intelius, a people search and background-check company that sells a smart-phone application. The co founder was first arrested last week after being indicted on a charge that he lied to a grand jury when testifying he had never engaged in sex acts with dancers at Rick's strip club in Seattle. Arnold was released on the conditions that after surrendering his passport and have proved that he has no contact with potential witnesses. But later the agents arrested him again knowing that he asked an intermediary to deliver a letter to the strip-club employee. The word comes up a lot in 121 complaints, against Intelius, many of which detail the same kind of thing that happened already. Even during a time when his office is getting more consumer gripes than it has in years Intelius has drawn even more 822 to date at the Better Business Bureau. In one of the popular website, the company is currently listed as unrated, due to one or more serious complaints that the bureau has not yet had time to assess. Last year, Intelius started a service in which you could input a name and for a fee receive that person's cell-phone number later it faced with negative publicity, Intelius eliminated the service before the law took effect however it does not require people's consent to include their cell numbers in reverse directories. The main reason for the exception is to allow people to identify phone stalkers. Intelius has also become enmeshed in litigation over fractious business relationships, and has provoked people who feel the company has violated their privacy or simply provided bad information.
