Anyone can access these profiles for a small fee.

Other data, like your email address, online accounts (including dating profiles), property records, and marriages and divorces, is available to Radaris’ subscribers.
Having your personal information accessible on Radaris can put you at increased risk of harassment, doxxing, stalking, identity theft, and social engineering scams.

Is Radaris legit?
Radaris is legit in that it legally provides personal information about individuals, and some of it is available for free. However, the accuracy of this information can vary.
Is Radaris free?
Radaris is free for basic searches that give you access to details like a person’s full name, age, home address, phone number, and relatives and associates. For more comprehensive information, like marriage records, bankruptcies, and online profiles, you need to pay a fee.
You can buy one report for $19.95 or subscribe to a monthly ($26.95 per month) or quarterly background report plan ($63.95 for 3 months or $21.31 per month) for unlimited searches. You can also subscribe to a monthly plan for $9.95 per month, which will give you access to people’s contact data.
Is Radaris legal?
Yes, Radaris is legal. Because most people search sites and data brokers trade in publicly available information, their business model doesn’t break any laws. There are also currently no federal laws regulating the data broker industry in the US.
That said, just because Radaris is legal doesn’t mean you should let it expose your personal information. Instead, take the time to opt out of this and other people search sites.
What is Radaris used for?
According to Radaris, the site is helpful for finding relatives, old friends, classmates, and colleagues. Radaris can also be used to discover a person’s personal history (like court cases and marriages), research neighbors, and verify unknown numbers.
However, Radaris can also be used for more nefarious purposes.
For instance, an internet troll you got into an argument with online could use Radaris to doxx and harass you; a cybercriminal could use it to make their phishing emails more targeted or guess your passwords (despite years of warnings from cybersecurity pros, most people still use basic passwords like their date of birth or spouse’s name); or an abuser could use it to track your whereabouts.
To reduce the likelihood that someone will use your personal information against you, it’s worthwhile opting out of Radaris and other people search sites and data brokers.
How do I do a Radaris phone number search?
To do a Radaris phone number search, go to the Radaris site, click “Phone” above the search bar on the site’s homepage, and type in the phone number you want to look up.
But remember: Just as you can find out the person behind a phone number using Radaris, others can do the same thing to you. Make sure to opt out of Radaris (and other people search sites) to prevent strangers from figuring out who you are based on your phone number.
How can I contact Radaris?
There are several ways you can contact Radaris. You can email Radaris at customer-service@radaris.com.
