Fraudulaent Advertizing! Scammers!! There must be some way to stop them. They provide no services as promised, and steal your money. I wish I had seen this site before buying, but they swamp the intertnet search engines with warnings about not being scammed by OTHER detective people search sites, but that Net Detective (and two others) are the only ones that are legitimate, so you think they are. They put out seemingly neutral non-profit reviews under different names (i.e. "Consumer-Advocacy.org) which are fake and perpetuate the scam. Do not buy into their lies. The Better Business Bureau has graded them with the letter "F". They are known on BBB's complaint site by many names, some of them being "HD Publishing Group", and another is " Customer Care Dot Com, Inc.".

This so called company is a ripoff scam. The $29.00 does not entitle you to anything except another website to again request more money for the 'upgrade plus' version which is probably a scam also. Please do not be taking in by this scam. Someone has to be held responsible for this website and should be fined heavily. Again, this is a SCAM.

I am being sued by someone with a completely disputable claim, so I decided to try to do some background checking on this person. I went online to search for some kind of tool to help and Net Detective came up. Now the thing that swayed me into using it were all the supposed reports from Consumer Groups. Well I used Net Detective and paid $29 and to my utter disappointment all the information I wanted came back with a link saying I needed to upgrade to Net Detective Plus. Basically I got less information than I got when I used White Pages or the local city information pages. All I got was the name and City, nothing else whatsoever. By this time I've already paid $29, so I signed up for Net Detective Plus, and again was completely disappointed as all the information I got was wrong. I searched on people I knew everything about and boy the info was completely way out, I mean WAY OUT!!! If these guys don't have the info I guess they make it up. I even searched known hardened criminals, the FBI's most wanted and other local criminals and the info was complete rubbish, unusable.

I asked for a refund and they sent me a 'novella' to fill out and send by 'snail mail'. I also tried to fax it. I have been waiting 2 months so far and have not received anything. I canceled the Net Detective Plus service by phoning them and put a watch service with my bank to see if they tried to debit my bank account. They did. So I phoned them again and they promised me that the service was canceled and would you believe that they tried again, but this time double the amount (presumably because they couldn't collect on the first amount). I promptly canceled my card.

I e-mailed them to say I hadn't received my refund and they didn't ever reply, so I phoned and guess what, yes you guessed it, they claimed that they hadn't received my refund form. I told them that I had also faxed it, but that's when they let it slip that their fax machine only responds to cell services!!! Ah, so I jumped on that straight away, the fax service only responds to cell numbers, so that means that their is no physical way to fax them and just in case you dispute that the service doesn't work, I guess they show you by using a cell phone???

So I am now e-mailing them on a daily basis until I receive a refund because as far as I am concerned, multiple phone calls and e-mails prove I am not happy and want a refund. The snail mail form is most definitely their way of delaying the refund, hoping you'll give up. This company should be taken to task by the Better Business Bureau or even better, everyone on this site should put in a mass complaint and have these Sheisters put out f business.

I signed up for netdetective.com's 'services' so I could do a background check on someone I knew. After paying the $29.99 fee on my credit card, I was never able to log into the website. Emails and phone calls went unanswered. I'm in the process of disputing the transaction with my credit card company.

Net Detective SUCKS!! I was duped by the fancy ads screaming how much information you could pull up on anyone pertaining to anything!! T Total BULLSHIT!!! I did a search, found the individual, and when I clicked on the 'more info' tab, it takes you a page that asks that you pay an additional $9.95 with a recurring $29.95 fee for the Law Enforcement Version. This website is a total waste. If you have $29.00 to blow up a wild hogs ass, then by all means, join the site. The site administrators will love you long time. Use my loss as your gain, don't try this site, go elsewhere. Thanks for reading (hopefully it saved you $29.00).
