i tried to locate the military record of my husbands dead grandfather and got no link to any part of it. except asking for more money.after the first asking for the military record it offered me nothing and at one point said the dead grandfather was 33 years old and alive and well!!!
all this web site wanted was MORE MONEY!!!

When I typ in my name on google.Sonia Kallman
Census' Bureau from the goverment comes up with 100 of Kallman
I don't think that is right.
I think it comes from Glenview Metropolitan Area Illinoise

I purchased a report on Oct. XXth, 2009 about a person I was trying to find. I paid $39.99 for the full report and honestly, Intelius did not provide me any extra information I wasn't able to find on the Internet. However, THE BIG SCAM came after, more than a week later, on Oct XXth, 2009, when my credit card was charged $29.95 for a a company VALMAX. I knew that the only transaction I would suspect had happened with Intelus. I called them and asked the customer service rep. She claimed that Intelius had nothing to do with them, but "they were a company that advertised their service (whatever the service it was) on Intelius website". She kept saying that Intelius had nothing to do with them!!!... Well, then I asked her "how this ValueMax was able to advertise on their website". Then she said that Intelius had made a deal, ValueMax could advertise their service on their website and UNLESS YOU CHECK a little tiny box, you automatically sign up for ValueMax for a trial period. After 7 days, your trial subscription becomes a continuous one! How tricky is that???? If I want to subscribe to anything, I CHECK a box, NOT UNCHECK. BEWARE Intelius! The report you will purchase (I bet) will not have anything other than you can find online. Their number is 1-888-445-2727, STAY AWAYYYYYYYY!!!...

Anyways, I called ValueMax, of course their service center (1-888-205-2257) was not operation 24/7, which I already accepted. The message told me to go to their website and log on etc, but I did not have any member ID or a password of anykind. HEAR THIS!!!... When you call the number, it is asking you to enter the credit card number you made the payment for IN ORDER TO REACH your account information :)))) I just laughed at that!!...

Hear this! Everytime you go back to see your report that you purchased from Intelius, the same tricky screen with no check box comes and you sign up for trial again.

Bottomline, our bank is reverting this s.itty scam spending and we will have a new card with new numbers now. Having said that, we will lose more time in modifying the credit card numbers we make continuos payments.

CHECK THE FILES ATTACHED! Intelius is a JOKE!

A Google search for a particular individual led to a link to Intellius.com for information about that person. Intellius correctly identified the individual's name, age, and city of residence, then provided another link for additional criminal background information about the individual--which cost $29.95.

I clicked on this link to buy the criminal info, entered my credit card information, and received the supposed report of the criminal background information for the person whom Intellius had identified by name, age, and location in the previous screen.

However, the information in the Criminal Report was NOT for this individual! It was for someone 20 years younger with a similar name...

I called Intellius to report this problem and request a refund. Intellius informed me that I should have entered the person's age on the order screen. I told Intellius that on the order screen there was NO PLACE to enter the person's age; and Intellius itself had already identified the person's age on previous screen...

I further explained that Intellius, in accepting the fee, had contracted to give correct information--not incorrect information, and that I was entitled to a refund. The representative refused to give a refund and hung up the phone.

BIG RIP-OFF! BIG SCAM! AVOID THIS COMPANY!!!

THEY SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN.

I signed up for a 24 pass with INTELIUS for access to people search for a high school reunion.
I ended up with the fee for the 24 hours, 14.95; a month's fee, 19.95, and 24 protectionplus123 for 19.95.
None of these extra fees were clear on the original sign up.
When I received an email regarding my monthly membership, I called the number on the email immediately and cancelled the membership. They claim they never received that call.
This is a scam and I would like my complaint published to warn others about this scam.
