Waxay ahaan jirtay in haddii aad rabto in qof la helo, aad shaqaaleysiiso baadhe gaar ah oo u ogolaato inay "shaqeeyaan ilahooda". Dabcan weli waad sameyn kartaa taas laakiin baarayaasha gaarka ah waa qaali. Haddii aad qof raadinayso, waxaad inta badan ka heli kartaa adiga oo isticmaalaya internetka^(Internet) .

Dad badan ayaa isku daya heerkooda ugu fiican si ay uga fogaadaan in ay online ahaadaan laakiin runta ayaa loo sheegaa, maalmahan waxaad internetka ku soo galaysaa haddii aad jeceshahay iyo haddii kale. Markaa haddii aad qof raadinayso, waa inaad ogaataa meelaha saxda ah ee khadka tooska ah ee aad ka eegi karto.

Warbaahinta bulshada^{(Social Media)}

Dekedda ugu horeysa ee cad ee wicitaanku waa mid cad oo ah warbaahinta bulshada, qaabka Facebook , Twitter , iyo LinkedIn . Twitter- ku aad ayuu u xaddidan yahay waxa ay kaaga sheegi karaan qofka (marka laga reebo sawirkiisa iyo goobta uu joogo - haddii ay macluumaadkaas galaan). 

Laakiin Facebook iyo LinkedIn ? Hagaag^(Well) , taasi waa ciyaar kubbadeed oo kala duwan sababtoo ah waxaa loogu talagalay dadka inay muujiyaan wax walba^(everything) oo naftooda ku saabsan - wayna sameeyaan.

Waxaan akhriyey buugaag ay qoreen Marshalliyadii hore ee Maraykanka^{(US Marshals)} oo ku lug lahaa Barnaamijka Ilaalinta Markhaati^{(Witness Protection Program)} oo sheegay in dad badan oo barnaamijka ku jiray ay ugu dambeyntii heleen cadawgoodu sababtoo ah waxay cusbooneysiiyeen bogaggooda bulshada!

Facebook-ga^{(Facebook)(Facebook)}

Haddii^(Whether) qofka aad raadinayso uu ku jiro Facebook iyo in kale waxay ku xirnaan doontaa da'da uu jiro iyo sida "teknoolajiyada" ay yihiin. Guud ahaan^(Generally) , kuwa ka yar 50 sano waxay u badan tahay inay yeelan doonaan akoon Facebook ah. Qof kasta oo ka weyn 50… si fiican, ka dibna waa la tuuro.

Helitaanka qofka waxay ku xirnaan doontaa waxyaabaha ay ka mid yihiin:

• sida uu u gaar yahay magaca qofka. Zachary Zucker waxay u badan tahay inuu si cad u soo baxo marka loo eego John Smith .
• Haddii ay weli ku nool yihiin isla aaggii aad ku aragtay ugu dambeysay. Haddii ay magac guud leeyihiin oo ay u guureen dhinaca kale ee adduunka, aqoonsashada iyaga ayaa dhibaato noqon karta.
• Haddii ay hayaan macluumaad ku saabsan profile-kooda taas oo caddaynaysa inay iyaga tahay - sawiro, dugsiyadii hore, loo-shaqeeyayaashii hore, iwm.

Wax kale oo la isku dayo (haddii aad ogtahay) waa inaad aragto haddii dugsigoodii hore uu leeyahay koox Facebook ah oo hore. Inta badan iskuulada waxay leeyihiin kooxo Facebook ah oo ay dejiyeen arday hore oo soo galiyay sawiro hore oo ka hadlaya waayihii hore. Waxaa laga yaabaa inaad qofka halkaas ka heshid.

LinkedIn

Haddii aad ku garaacdo Facebook , isku day LinkedIn soo socota. Waxaan nasiib cajiib ah ku yeeshay LinkedIn sababtoo ah waxay noqotay meesha kaliya ee qof kasta oo raba inuu dhiso xirfad. Tani waxay ka dhigan tahay inay jiri doonaan sawirada qofka, taariikhda shaqadiisa oo dhan, goobta, dugsiyada, iwm.

Waxa kale oo ay noqon kartaa wax lagu farxo in la eego cagajugleyntii hore ee dugsiga oo la ogaado inay ku rogmanayaan Burger King ama nadiifinta musqulaha!

Matoorada raadinta^{(Search Engines)}

Haddii qofku uusan ku jirin warbaahinta bulshada, tallaabada xigta waa mashiinka raadinta oo ka badan ama ka yar macnaheedu waa Google.

Google -ku wuxuu tuuri karaa xaddi badan oo macluumaad ah oo ku saabsan dadka. Maqaallada wargeysyada waxaa lagu tilmaami karaa Google -ka markaa ma laga yaabaa in qofku sameeyay wax xusid mudan oo ku soo biiray warka?

Mise waxaa laga yaabaa in ay dambi galeen oo ay xabsiga galeen, haddii ay dhacdo in dacwadda lagu soo oogo? Intaa ka dib waxaa jira sheekooyin ii sheegay in saaxiibkii dhintay markii uu si lama filaan ah maalin uga soo dhacay raadaarka. Ugu dambeyntii, fiiri in qofku leeyahay shabakad u gaar ah.

Waa kuwan qaar ka mid ah matoorada raadinta ee gaarka ah oo aad sidoo kale isku dayi karto. Badankoodu waxay ku siin doonaan macluumaadka aasaasiga ah oo leh kharash magac ahaan loo baahan yahay si aad u hesho macluumaad aad u horumarsan. Laakiin macluumaadka aasaasiga ah ayaa dabooli doona waxyaabaha sida magacyada, cinwaannada, qaraabada, iyo laga yaabee lambarrada taleefannada. 

Waxa yara cadho leh in kastoo qaar badan oo ka mid ah mareegahani ay daboolaan Maraykanka oo keliya.

Buugaagta Taleefanka^{(Phone Books)}

Wadamo badan ayaa hadda ku daabaca buugaagtooda taleefoonada onlayn, taas oo ka dhigaysa maalmaha la helayo buugaagta daabacaadda ee waayihii hore. Raadinta Google ee "buugga taleefanka" + "dalkaaga" ayaa soo saari doona hagaha. Laakin markii la hubinayay maqaalkan, goobta lambarrada Mareykanka^{(the site for US numbers)} ayaa hoos u dhacday. U dhigma Ingiriisi waa BT iyo 192 Tusaha Tusaha.^{(192 Directory Enquiries.)}

Xogta Xabsiga^{(Prison Databases)}

Haddii aad Google ka ogaato in ay xabsiga galeen, ama aad rabto in aad saxdo jeelka liiska, tillaabada xigta waa in aad eegto xogta saxda ah.

Gudaha UK, ma jiro xog-ururin dhab ah. Taa beddelkeeda, waa inaad iimayl u dirtaa Adeegga Xabsiga^{(you must email the Prison Service)} oo aad ka codsato inay ku raadiyaan. Markaa maxbuusku waa inuu oggolaadaa in meesha lagu hayo

Si kastaba ha ahaatee, gudaha Mareykanka, iska ilow sirta maxbuuska! Xafiiska Federaalka^{(Federal Bureau)} ee Xabsiyada ^(Prisons) wuxuu hayaa keydka xogta maxaabiista federaalka^{(maintains a database for federal inmates)} . Oo mareegahani waxa^{(And this website)} uu ku xidhaa agabka soo hel maxaabiista gobol kasta oo Maraykanka ah.

Kaydka Wargeysyada Gudaha^{(Local Newspaper Archives)}

Mid kale oo aad isku dayi karto waa kaydka wargeysyada maxaliga ah. Wargeysyada qaarkood waxay u ogolaadaan makiinadaha raadinta inay tusiyaan sheekadooda, laakiin qaar badan ma sameeyaan. Taa beddelkeeda, waxay kaydiyaan kaydkooda gadaasha derbiyada lacag bixinta. Wargeysyada sida New York Times iyo Washington Post ayaa caan ku ah tan, iyo sidoo kale qaar badan oo ka mid ah wargeysyada bulshada yar yar.

Markaa eeg haddii wargeysyada gobolku haystaan ​​kayd, bixi khidmadda magaca ah, oo eeg qofka aad raadinayso. Waxaan hore u lahaa guul sidaas darteed waa u qalantaa.

Haddi Kale Oo Dhan Fashilan – Raac Asxaabta & Qaraabada^{(If All Else Fails – Follow The Friends & Relatives)}

Hadda ha igu khaldamin. Uma jeeddo qaab daba-gal ah oo gurracan, oo duurka ku dhuumanaya oo wata muraayadda kamarada fog-fog. Waxaan ula jeedaa haddii qofka aad raadineyso uusan soo muuqan – oo aad taqaan saaxiibadiisa iyo qaraabadiisa – raadi. Haddii ay la xiriiraan qofka, waxaad ka heli kartaa iyaga.

Tani waxay u badan tahay inay tahay bet ugu fiican haddii qof magaciisa u beddelay guurka dartiis oo aanad garanayn magaca cusub. Ka fiirso liiska asxaabta iyo qaraabada saaxiibada ee baraha bulshada – eeg haddii uu qofku halkaas ku joogo magac cusub.

Haddii aadan aqoon ehelka, tag abtirsiinta.com^{(ancestry.com)} . Geli qofka aad raadinayso markaas waxay kuu sheegi doontaa faahfaahinta qaraabadooda. Waxaas oo dhami waa diiwaan dadweyne si aadan wax khalad ah u samayn.

How To Track Someone Down Using Online Sources

It used to be that if yoυ wanted ѕomeone found, you would hire a private inνestigator and let them “work their sources”. Of course you can still do that but private investigators are expensive. If yоu are looking for someone, you can quite often find thеm on your own υsing the Internet.

A lot of people try their level best to avoid being online but truth be told, you end up online these days whether you like it or not. So if you are looking for someone, you just have to know the right online places to look.

Social Media

The first obvious port of call is obviously social media, in the form of Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Twitter is very limited in what they can tell you about a person (apart from their photo and location – if they enter that information). 

But Facebook and LinkedIn? Well, that’s a whole different ball-game because they are designed for people to reveal everything about themselves – and they do.

I have read books by former US Marshals involved in the Witness Protection Program who said that a lot of people in the program were eventually found by their enemies because they kept updating their social media pages!

Facebook

Whether or not the person you are looking for is on Facebook will depend on how old they are and how “into tech” they are. Generally speaking, those under 50 will most likely have a Facebook account. Anyone over 50….well, then it’s a tossup.

Finding the person will depend on things like :

• how unique the person’s name is. Zachary Zucker is more likely to show up clearly than John Smith.
• If they are still living in the same area where you saw them last. If they have a common name and have moved to the other side of the world, identifying them might be a problem.
• If they have information on their profile that makes it obvious it is them – photos, former schools, former employers, etc.

Another thing to try (if you know it) is to see if their former school has an alumni Facebook group. Most schools have Facebook groups set up by former students who upload old class photos and talk about the old days. You might find the person there.

LinkedIn

If you strike out on Facebook, try LinkedIn next. I have had an incredible amount of luck with LinkedIn because it has become the one-stop place for anyone wanting to build a career. This means there will be photos of the person, their entire work history, location, schools, etc.

It can also be incredibly satisfying to look up the former school bullies and discover they are flipping burgers in Burger King or cleaning toilets!

Search Engines

If the person is not on social media, the next step is the search engine which more or less means Google.

Google can throw up a huge amount of information about people. Newspaper articles can be indexed on Google so maybe the person did something noteworthy that got them into the news?

Or maybe they committed a crime and went to prison, in which case the trial would have been covered? Then there are the obituaries which told me a friend was dead when he suddenly dropped off the radar one day. Finally, see if the person has their own website.

Here are some specialist search engines you could also try. Most will give you basic information with a nominal fee required to access more advanced information. But the basic information will cover things like names, addresses, relatives, and maybe phone numbers. 

The slightly annoying thing though is that many of these websites cover the US only.

• AnyWho White Pages
• ZabaSearch
• Pipl
• Death Indexes
• Find a Grave
• PeekYou
• Persopo

Phone Books

Many countries now publish their phone directories online, making the days of getting bulky print books a relic of the past. A Google search of “phone book” + “your country” will bring up the directories. But when checking for this article, the site for US numbers was down. The British equivalents are BT and 192 Directory Enquiries.

Prison Databases

If you discover from Google that they have gone to prison, or you just want to tick prison off the list, the next step is to look on the right databases.

In the UK, there is no actual database. Instead, you must email the Prison Service and request that they look for you. Then the prisoner has to consent to their location being given

However, in the US, forget about prisoner privacy! The Federal Bureau of Prisons maintains a database for federal inmates. And this website links to prisoner locator tools for every state in the US.

Local Newspaper Archives

One other thing you could try are local newspaper archives. Some newspapers allow search engines to index their stories, but many do not. Instead, they put their archives behind paywalls. Newspapers like the New York Times and Washington Post are notorious for this, as well as many smaller local community newspapers.

So see if newspapers in the region have archives, pay the nominal fee, and have a look around for the person you’re looking for. I have had success before so it’s worth it.

If All Else Fails – Follow The Friends & Relatives

Now don’t get me wrong. I don’t mean in a creepy stalker-ish way, hiding in the bushes with a long-range camera lens. What I mean is that if the person you seeking is not showing up – and you know their friends and relatives – look for them. If they are in touch with the person, you could find them that way.

This is probably the best bet if someone has changed their name due to marriage and you don’t know the new name. Look in the friends and relatives’ friends lists on social media – see if the person is there under a new name.

If you don’t know the relatives, go to ancestry.com . Enter the person you’re looking for then it will tell you their relatives’ details. It’s all public record so you’re not doing anything wrong.
