Caution Is Still The Best Policy
If you, or someone you are close to, were being plagued by malicious nuisance telephone calls, how would it make you feel? The likelihood is that it wouldn’t be particularly conciliatory, and indeed would lean towards a violent dislike that bordered on the criminal. But remember one thing – if someone is doing something illegal to threaten you, you have the law on your side. Don’t go making them neutrals or opponents because of some idiot. Using Reverse Phone Lookup will give you some information on the person’s name and possibly their location, but not the right to go round there and punch them.
Additionally, there is the danger of some of the details on the form being wrong. The details you will find are for informational purposes only, and should not be used as anything more substantial. The danger that you face if the details are used for any unnecessarily pro-active response to the calls is that you could end up being the one in prison, especially if you go after the wrong person. And even if you know the person in question is responsible for the calls, the best thing to do is call the police. With evidence to back you up, you are in the driving seat here.
If you use the system correctly, Reverse Number Lookup can be incredibly helpful. It is a seriously powerful informational tool, but remember that in matters of informational surveillance no-one is better informed than the police. Make it their business too.
