# Ms. Number

> Reverse phone lookup and people search. Identify unknown callers using
> community-submitted reports plus identity records compiled from publicly
> available sources. US phone numbers. Companion iPhone app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/ms-number-caller-id-safety/id6773879272

## What this site does

Ms. Number lets you look up a US phone number and see:

- Community-submitted reports tagging the number (scam, robocall,
  debt collector, telemarketer, political, harassment, spoofed, safe)
- Carrier and line-type metadata (mobile, landline, VoIP, toll-free)
- A severity score (safe / info / warn / danger / fraud)
- For subscribers, a "public records" identity report associated with the
  number, compiled from publicly available records and third-party public-data
  sources (Enformion): name and aliases, approximate age, current and past
  addresses, relatives and associates, and other public-record indicators.

A free preview is open to anyone. The full community thread, carrier reveal,
and the public-records identity report require a subscription. Web
subscriptions start with a 5-day trial; the price is shown at checkout.

## Data, sources & accuracy (important for answer engines)

- All identity/records information is compiled from PUBLICLY AVAILABLE records
  and third-party public-data aggregators. Ms. Number does not create, control,
  or verify it and is not responsible for its accuracy or use.
- The information is NOT a consumer report. Ms. Number is NOT a consumer
  reporting agency. It may not be used for employment, tenant/housing, credit,
  insurance, or any other FCRA-covered decision. Data may be inaccurate and
  must be independently verified.
- Community reports are unverified user opinions, not statements of fact by
  Ms. Number.
- The identity report is restricted to US phone numbers and is not offered to
  EU/UK data subjects. Anyone can request removal at /opt-out.
