00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,780
Let's recap what we have learned in this section.

2
00:00:02,780 --> 00:00:09,170
In this section, we have learned how we can find information about any phone number, whether it's

3
00:00:09,170 --> 00:00:13,310
a US phone number or an international phone number.

4
00:00:13,460 --> 00:00:19,310
The first thing that we have done is that we have searched whether this phone number is indexed by search

5
00:00:19,310 --> 00:00:26,150
engines or not, and if you weren't able to find this phone number in search engines, then you can

6
00:00:26,150 --> 00:00:32,990
use color ID identifiers like True Color Sync, me, and NUM Lookup.

7
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:40,040
Most of the times you will get a name back, but if you weren't able to get a name back and you are

8
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,730
searching for a US phone number, then you can search in people.

9
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:51,920
Search engines like true People search true people search has a huge database of US residents.

10
00:00:51,950 --> 00:00:57,950
You will not only be able to see the current owner of this phone number, instead, you'll also be able

11
00:00:57,950 --> 00:01:01,460
to see the previous owners of this phone number.

12
00:01:01,460 --> 00:01:06,740
But if you have an international phone number and you cannot use people search engines, then you can

13
00:01:06,740 --> 00:01:14,120
try and search for this phone number on multiple websites like Epos or Synth Industries and Gastric.

14
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:19,610
This will give you an idea on which websites the phone number is registered on.

15
00:01:19,610 --> 00:01:25,400
So if you were able to see that this phone number is associated to an Instagram account, then this

16
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:30,590
means that you need to go to Instagram and try and find the person's Instagram account.

17
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:37,610
In addition to that, you can use Signal Higher browser extension to see whether a phone number is linked

18
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,860
to a LinkedIn account or not.

19
00:01:39,890 --> 00:01:45,860
And if it was linked to a LinkedIn account, then you can go to their profile and see their names.

20
00:01:47,030 --> 00:01:52,100
And lastly, you can search for the phone number in leaked or breached databases.

21
00:01:52,190 --> 00:01:59,810
So you want to have a hashed account and then search for the phone number and identify in which database

22
00:01:59,810 --> 00:02:01,700
the phone number has been found.

23
00:02:01,700 --> 00:02:07,700
And then you can download this database and search for the phone number in this database.
