Even twenty years ago it was possible to find a person only through the address bureau. It was necessary to fill out a special application and wait weeks for the result. Fortunately, now we live in a world of high technology. You can find a person in just a couple of minutes. All you need for this is an Internet connection. In this article we will look at how to find a person by last name and first name.
Finding a person on social networks
First of all, you can find a person on all popular social networks by first and last name, of course, if he is registered there.
I advise you to start with VKontakte, since it is the most popular social network in Russia, and it also has good search filters.
Then you can search for a person on Instagram, Facebook, Odnoklassniki and Twitter.

And one more tip: when you find a profile on one social network, try the username in other services. It is quite possible that a person uses the same nickname everywhere.
Search by phone number
If you have a phone number, the easiest way to find a person is to call that number. If you doubt that this is a toll-free number, look for it through search engines before calling. If this is some kind of organization or scammers, then there is a chance that the number has already been “lit up”, and you will find interesting reviews about it.
In addition, to search by phone number, you can use special services provided by mobile operators. For example, MTS Locator helps determine the location of MTS, Megafon and Beeline subscribers. The only drawback of such services is the need to obtain permission from the person you are looking for. It will not be possible to peek unnoticed: a person must allow their movements to be tracked.
How to find out what kind of business a person owns
The tax website has a service for searching entrepreneurs by first and last name. Using this information, we can find out what a person does approximately.

In addition, the TIN number is openly stored in the database. Its first four digits are the Federal Tax Service department code. We look for it in Google or Yandex, and find out in which city the person registered the individual entrepreneur. Knowing the stranger's hometown will make searching for him much easier.
Precautionary measures
While searching for a person, you can come across various sites that offer to look at the database of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the secret archive of the military commissariat, passport data of all citizens, etc. You need to be wary of such services: usually you can’t find anything on them, but you can lose money or catch a virus.
You should be especially careful with sites that ask you to enter a phone number or send a free SMS. The message may be paid, and the phone number will end up on the spam mailing list. So don’t get too carried away with searching for people in “closed databases” - you can run into serious trouble.

How to find out if a person is wanted
Just in case, you can try to find the person in the Ministry of Internal Affairs database, especially if he causes concern.
On topic: Searching through the databases of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate and banks. What you can find out
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has a free service for this, but to search you will have to indicate your year of birth. This field can be filled in at random if you know your approximate age.
Thanks to us, you can find someone with whom:
Worked
Studied at school
Studied at university
Served
To search our resources, enter the available information in the appropriate fields. If you want to view the entire database, you must enter at least one search criterion. After completing the search, you can immediately start communicating with someone you really missed and see how he has changed. To find a person by last name, first name, patronymic and year of birth for free
, enter all required parameters.
How to check a person's debts
On the main page of the website of the Federal Bailiff Service there is a search for debts, including fines and alimony.
Topic: Where to see what debts you have
You can indicate the number of the enforcement proceedings or your full name, with the middle name being an optional field. In general, we write the first and last name, and then study the database.
Other search methods
There is a high probability of finding a person by contacting a private detective. Such specialists usually have unspoken connections with the police or other authorities with access to citizen databases.
The cost of a detective's services depends on the complexity of the search. If the task is to find out a person’s contacts based on their full name and date of birth, then you can do it within a small amount. When the data is less specific, for example, the client provided only his last name and approximate age, then the task will be much more difficult and the cost of services will increase.
Knowing the past place of residence of the wanted person, it is worth trying to get the neighbors to talk. They will tell you a lot of useful things. After all, when many people move, they often tell their neighbors where they are going.
It is unlikely that you will be able to find out the exact address. But the interlocutors can easily tell you the city and the street. Ideally, a pensioner who loves to talk will tell you where her former neighbor worked.
How to find an unknown person in judicial databases
On the website of the state Justice system, you can check in which court cases the stranger was involved. This will only require your first and last name, but it's best to know as much information as possible to get the most relevant search results.
Unfortunately, not all cases have the text of the judge's decision attached. But if there is one, you will be able to read almost all the details of the process (some confidential information is not indicated in the documents).

What I found about myself on the Internet
I decided to test some of these methods for myself. The first thing I did was write my name on Google and find accounts on Twitter and Facebook. Then I opened Yandex and saw my Instagram profile on the first page.
Most of all I was surprised that I could not find the page on VKontakte.
However, my Facebook username is the same as VKontakte, so I found the account using Google without any problems.
In addition to pages on social networks, I found links to my materials on iPhones.ru and other sites where I worked before.
Thanks to Yandex.Images, I was able to find a profile photo on YouTube, and with it a link to my channel.
I did not look for myself in the register of entrepreneurs, since I had never opened an individual entrepreneur or LLC.
There is nothing about me in the databases of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, FSSP and Justice.
Using Google Academy, I found a link to my report at a scientific conference that was held at my institute.
As a result, knowing only my first and last name, I was able to find pages on social networks, place of study, work, scientific publications and photographs.
