What is FastPeopleSearch? 

FastPeopleSearch is a registered data broker. That means its entire business is built on collecting and selling personal information, including your name, information on your relatives, previous and current addresses, property valuations, marriage status, and even your cell phone provider. 

As of 2026, FastPeopleSearch claims to have information on over 800 million people, totaling 16.5 billion records. Nearly 100 million searches are conducted through the website every month. 

Many state laws require brokers like FastPeopleSearch to provide some kind of removal process so that state residents can opt out. 

Why Should You Remove Yourself from FastPeopleSearch? 

Data brokers like FastPeopleSearch put you at risk of doxxing, cyberstalking, scams and spam. 

In the early days of the internet, it was hard for bad actors to track down your information because of practical obscurity. Public records were hard to find and fragmented across multiple systems. Now, data brokers pull all of that information into one place. Even if you remove yourself, there’s a good chance FastPeopleSearch and other brokers will simply scrape public records again and re-publish your information. 

That visibility makes it easy for cybercriminals to target you. If you receive a scam text with your name and the name of your cell phone provider, that will be a lot more convincing than a generic “Hi, click this link” text. 

Regularly search for your info online and remove whatever you can to stay safer from these types of personalized threats.
