This is a great article. Another service I've used to find information on someone I was trying to find is: http://www.numberinvestigator.com

I hope that helps!

Also, what good is finding someones' e-mail address? Think most people will be sent to junk mail, since the person is not expecting that contact. I think most want it to spam the holder of the address. Anyone looking for someone should find out where they worked, find a person who knew them( old boss?), and see if THEY can initiate contact. Stalkers and ex-cons look for ways to contact people who moved away,too, it's not all innocent inquiry.

I found someone recently opened an account in MyLife ,using one of my e-mail addresses. none of the info matched but the address. How did this person get it? Haven't used it in years but it's still mine...when you click on that person's name, which there are several listed, it now goes to MY information and name. I think it is for ID theft, linking their name to my address so my info will pop up when a thief needs the info. What do you think?Had MyLife delete it but it was set up 1 1/2 months ago...

Well, it's certainly easy to do. I have no idea what the legal ramifications are, if any.

In my experience, while these are all great suggestions and certainly the first step is to do some manual labor upfront, most if not all "free" searches for reverse email address lookups and people finders including finding someone's email address are either teasers or bait to get you to purchase the detailed info.

Here's my suggestion. Take the advice given here as a preliminary "catch any low hanging fruit" if it's out there and then depending on the need/desire for the information, a lot of places will provide this and a lot of other information for as little as $2.95. I'd say if an email address isn't worth $2.95, it's probably not worth spending too much time doing the free research either...unless you're bored that is.

Another point to make here is that Leo is right, email addresses are one of the hardest things to find if people don't want to be found. However, often times a paid search service (a reputable one) will be able to search data you simply can't access and so it may be worth a try.

Try IntelliCorp InTouch. They provide quality personal background checks, reverse email address lookup and advanced people finder technology without the bait and switch and are very affordable. It's not fool proof, but it might just be the information you need.

Can you find out someone's e-mail address if you have their myspace URL?? The person has their account set up so that you have to know their e-mail address in order to friend request them...Is there anyway around that???

No.

How do you obtain the hotmail member directory? I was trying to email this person and accidentally discarded my draft. All i remember is the first word of the email addy and their first name.

I'm not aware of a Hotmail member directory. It would be a resource that spammers would use to send Hotmail accounts even more spam than they get already. Regardless, even if there were one, I'd also guess most people would opt-out, or use obfuscated information.

1. Yes, as mentioned in the article, do Google search.

Do a search in several different ways : variations of the persons last, first, middle names, state, country, etc. Today, search engines contain billions of records listed MySpace, forums, blogs, etc.

2. Here's another free people and email address search resources :

http://www.anywho.com
http://www.people.yahoo.com
http://www.whitepages.com

Find the person with military, college or professional affiliations :
http://www.militaryconnections.com - for military personnel
http://www.facebook.com - find college students.

or by high school
http://www.classmates.com
http://www.reunion.com

I recently found a long lost friend on Myspace, although they haven't logged into their account in quite some time. I was wondering if there was a way to find out which email address they used when logging into their Myspace account? That way I would be able to email them directly instead of trying to contact them with the Myspace account they never use.
Thanks,
Dahlia

Also worth noting are themed directories that people register with, such as linkedin.com (past co-workers) and classmates.com (former school friends) as well as individual alumni sites for the schools you attended. I located a couple of college friends through an online alumni directory run by the university I attended.

Additionally, sending out a call to friends you and this person may have had in common also helps. Considering the "six degrees of separation" theory. It's possible that someone you know has the contact info for the person you're seeking or they might know someone who does.
