    Default Civilian Background Check

    Has anyone here used an online source for a background check?

    Personal life BS, not going into details on an internet forum.

    Just looking for recommendations on how to check, specifically criminal, but personal background on a person.

    Thanks in advance.

    That doesn't mean "stairs are bad" nor does it make someone who pushes someone down the stairs any less of an asshole.

    Are you looking to get background check with or without the person's consent?

    I suggest you hire a licensed private investigator, and if you do, do shop around on price/service.

    Thanks everyone.

    I have a pretty decent handle on my path forward, but if there are other recommendations, I certainly won't turn them away.

    Depending on the reason either a pi or a second for Intelius. Had a girlfriend that used that one for her rental property.

    Intelius is crap- stale data and not FCRA compliant, so not legal for tenant checks or pre-employment because there's no verification of the person.

    If you want to do it yourself, go with CBI and then CoCourts- CoCourts will set you back $10 for all counties in Colorado that are online; CBI will be $5 and will require a date of birth.

    Tip: When using CoCourts, provide only the first and last name- not an initial and not a date of birth. You'll have to sort through many names, but you won't miss any that way.

    If you need help, hit me up.

    Backgroundchecks.com is what I've used for a while...

    Runs about $70 to do a full nationwide/state/county/natsec search with alias verification, etc., if I'm remembering correctly.


    ETA: there's also a bunch of good OSINT resources you can use to cast the "wider net"...send me a pm if interested, that's not stuff that should be posted here.
