If you have tried to search for a phone number on search engines and you weren't able to get any search
result, then you can use a caller ID identifier that will help you to find the caller ID of any phone
number.
Now, these caller ID identifiers usually are used to block spam calls, so you need to download and
install an app on your phone.
And based on their database, they will automatically block all spam calls.
But the downside about these tools or these apps is that once you download them on your phone, they'll
upload a copy of all of your contacts to their database.
And that's why I always like to use the graphical user interface or their website instead of downloading
any apps on my phone.
So in this lecture, we are going to focus on how can we find the caller ID of an international phone
number and a US phone number.
So one of my favorite websites is called Truecaller.
Com.
You will find all the links in the resources of this lecture.
The first thing you want to do is to sign in to your account.
You can sign in with a Google or a Microsoft account.
I highly recommend you sign in with an account that you do not use and that does not contain any contacts.
So after you sign in, you want to copy the phone number and add it in here.
So let me copy Rishi Kabra phone number and add it in here as you can see.
And then I'm going to click on search.
And as you can see we were able to get information about this phone number.
So we can see his name Rishi Kabra.
We can see his profile picture and we can see his email address and where he works at.
We can also see his address or the city where he's living, which is Kolkata, India.
So as I said, this is one of my favorite websites because it has a huge database of international phone
numbers.
And if I wasn't able to find Rishi Kabra phone number in this database, then I can use a website called
Sync.com that you will find its link in the resources of this lecture and you also need to sign in.
And then I'm going to add Rishi Kabra phone number and then click on search.
And as you can see, we can see that this phone number is for Rishi Kabra.
And this is a mobile phone number and not a landline number.
The third website that I like to use is called NUM Lookup Comm.
So you can select one of these countries.
It's not fully international so it does not support all countries but it support many countries.
So I'm going to add Rishi Kabra phone number.
Like this.
And then click on search.
And then I'm going to click on See Report.
And as you can see we were not able to get any search results.
So let me go to the next website.
And from now on we are only focusing on US phone numbers.
So this website will look for the caller ID of a US phone number.
And to show you an example, I would like to copy and paste Rishi Kabra phone number who lives in the
United States.
So I'm going to paste the phone number and then click on search.
And then I'm going to solve the captcha.
And as you can see, we were able to find the color ID of this person, which is Rishi Kabra.
The ones who lives in the United States.
We can also see the carrier and see that this is a cell phone number.
The second website that I like to use is called caller ID Test.com.
And you are allowed to search for five phone numbers daily.
So I'm going to paste Rishi Kabra phone number and click on search.
And as you can see here is his name Rishi Kabra.
And we can see the phone provider and the state he's in.
The next website is going to be old phone Book.com which will show you information about old phone numbers.
So let me paste Rishi Kabra phone number and then click on search so we can see it's invalid because
I need to remove the minuses and the brackets and then click on search.
Here we have a space.
I'm going to remove it and then click on search again.
And as you can see it has records from 1994 until 2014, and by looking at this record from 1995, we
can see that the owner of this phone number was Scott Sawyer.
And we can see his address as well.
And in 1997 this was the owner.
So we can scroll down and find if this phone number has been given to another person.
But we can see nothing.
If you scroll up, you can see that we have 2023 phone lookups.
So I'm going to click on this.
And here you are going to add the phone number.
Like this.
And then click on search.
And as you can see we did not get a match.
But you can see that we can search for the first and last name.
So let me say Rishi Kabra and then click on search.
And here we can see a very similar phone number along with his home address.
So in this lecture you have learned how can you use color ID identifiers to find the caller ID of any
phone number?
