The Internet has become so accessible that anyone with a phone can connect with friends, or start a new relationship with strangers. And a person can have multiple online identities at the same time — which is exactly what you should look out for before venturing into a new relationship.

To avoid scams and cheaters, you should do some research to verify your date. While most of the dating sites flag themselves as private platforms, there’re still ways you can find someone’s dating profiles easily and quickly.

5 ways to search dating profiles by phone number

Dating profiles are definitely not something to be asked about. So if you want the truth, you have to seek it out yourself. But relax — you certainly don’t need a hacker for this job.

Method 1: Search the phone number on Intelius

The quickest and most efficient way to search for someone’s dating profiles is to search the phone number on people search engines. They may be able to provide information that you might not find in a Google search.

And Intelius is a powerful people search tool that uses its public resources and online sources to search for social networks and dating platforms. By searching with a phone number, you may find the owner’s name, possible photos and profiles on 50+ online platforms (including dating sites).

Step 1: Open the Intelius reverse phone search page.

Step 2: Enter the phone number and click Search.

Step 3: Wait for Intelius to search its sources. Once it locates a match, it’ll generate a report that may reveal the available information linked to this phone number. After subscribing for a plan, in the Social profiles section of the report, you can view the possible profiles that person has on social platforms and dating sites.

Method 2: Search 50+ online profiles with BeenVerified

When it comes to searching digital footprints, or online identities, people search engines like BeenVerified should be your first choice of tools.

Method 4: Track digital footprint with Spokeo

People search engines tend to have different plans and databases. If one doesn’t work, just try the next one (of course, only the famous ones).

Starting out aggregating info on social media, Spokeo is another powerful people search tool. If you want to hunt down someone on 120+ social networks, Spokeo is your go-to guy. It providers a handy phone-reverse portal, allowing you to track the number owner on multiple dating platforms.

1. To check if someone is active on dating sites, first go to the reverse phone lookup page.
2. Enter the phone number and hit Search. (You can choose other types of search based on the information you have.)
   
3. The report will be out in minutes. It may include the name, address and social network profiles associated with the phone number.
   

Method 5: Join and change your phone number

Basically every social network, including large dating sites such as Tinder and Bumble, requires a phone number during registration. The forget my password trick used to work, but now every website has closed this loophole. So you need to up your game and register an account yourself, then try to change your phone number to the target one. If it tells you the number is not available, you hit the jackpot.

How to find dating profiles by email address

The search might get easier if you have an email address.

If you’ve tried the people search engines above, you might be able to get the email address associated with the phone number. Then you can try registering a new account with that email address. If the dating site tells you it’s already taken, you know what it means.
