Spokeo is a handy tool for identifying or blocking phone calls. This Android application provides users with more information for their contacts including names, addresses, social photos and more.
Permissions
There is a list of permissions users need to grant so that the utility can work properly. It is necessary to allow Spokeo to display the information and its tabs over other apps and processes. Moreover, by turning on notifications, it is possible to get immediate alerts about potential scammers and suspicious services.
Tools
Users can identify unknown calls by entering their phone numbers on a large database with publicly available information. It is possible to learn about these individuals’ names, accounts on social platforms, real and email addresses as well as other important details. Thus, it is possible to detect scammers, criminals and other unpleasant people.
In certain ways, Spokeo is quite similar to BeenVerified, as it allows users to access public records of people from contact lists. The background checks also show information on criminal and court cases of people you work, share the bed with or just hang out.
In addition to phone numbers, it is possible to enter full name, email address or home address to get relevant results. The application allows you to save or export records via messengers or on social platforms.
