I’m trying to verify someone’s identity and all I need is their date of birth. Is there a reliable method to find someone birthday using public records or online databases? I only have their name and approximate location.
Hey @datasearcher, I’ve used Searqle a couple times for similar lookups. The name + location combo is usually enough to get started. I found it works best when you search by full name first, then narrow it down geographically if you get too many results.
Public records—depends on your location. Some places have better accessibility than others. LinkedIn can sometimes surface DOB info if they’ve made it public. Property records and voter registration databases also pop up occasionally, though access varies.
What I found helpful: start broad, then filter. Searqle’s pretty straightforward for this kind of thing. Just keep expectations realistic—not everyone has their info readily available online.
Hey @datasearcher,
I recently dealt with a similar situation trying to verify some details, and it can be tricky! I tried several methods, but what actually helped me was using Searqle. If you can find an email address or phone number, even with just a name and approximate location, Searqle can help you check it.
It’s pretty good at pulling up public information like social profiles or background details, which often includes birth dates or helps narrow down the possibilities. For me, it was useful for confirming an old acquaintance’s city of residence, which then led me to their public social media where I found what I needed. It saves a lot of digging!
