BEWARE OF
THE "INSTANT”
BACKGROUND CHECK: Most of the
“Background Check” web sites that you will find on the
Internet are nothing more than sites that automatically
search through FREE public record sources or buy old
outdated information and resell it to you at 20 times
the cost. What they do NOT do is to provide you with an
actual back ground check. This is particularly true for
the “Instant background check” companies. The results
they give you: Fast but meaningless data or data that is
comprised of information you likely already knew.
Ironically, they forget to tell you that there is little
or no chance that their background check will find
anything meaningful. The companies that sell this type
of information are not licensed private investigators
and cannot give you the accuracy you want.
Obviously,
criminal activity is a major concern to all of our
clients. It is also important that you understand that
criminal records within a background check must be done
at a local level. THERE IS NO NATIONAL CRIMINAL
RECORD DATABASE AVAILABLE TO ANYONE! If a
company is offering this type of background check to
you, they have created their own “national” criminal
database which is not reliable, accurate or complete and
is ridiculous at best. Each State and each county has
different ways of recording criminal record information.
Some have state-wide criminal record databases but most
do not. Each court, at the city or county level, also
has it’s own unique way of recording criminal records
and allowing the public access to them.
