Background Checks For The General Public

Your child's soccer coach, your landscaper, the handyman? Do you know who these people are?

"There are essentially unhealthy people out there, predators that come into our lives looking like and acting like they're just good natured people," said security expert, Robert Siciliano. So to be sure you know who you're dealing with, take your own precautions.

"People are realizing their personal security and they're becoming much more responsible by getting background checks done," said Siciliano.

For years, major companies have used background checks to look into prospective employees. But these days, business from the general public is booming at services like my-background-check-dot-com where you need only a few bits of information to research somebody without their knowledge.
