Reverse Cell Phone - Find out who phones your kids

Mr. Cooper of Motorola caused quite a stir when back in 1973 he used his then 30 ounce portable phone to call one of his rivals at AT&T. Walking in the streets of New York he was making the first ever real cell phone call.

Ten years later, Motorola introduced its second generation of cell phone, which at 16 ounce was half the weight of its predecessor. Seven years later, one million Americans were cell phone users.

This was then! Today, there are more cell phone subscribers than land phone subscribers and cell phones weigh in at around 3 ounces and less.

Families all over the world have embraced this brand new technology and it’s not just Mom and Dad now who are the proud owners of cell phones, but every kid over the age of 6 years old!

Unfortunately, cell phone records are not part and parcel of the public records psyche and thus are often used by unsavory characters such as online predators who through the internet try to lure our unsuspecting kids into giving them their cell phone numbers.

Reading through the daily press, it is not uncommon to read stories of kids who have been the victims of online predators and parents throughout the world are understandably worried. Of course every steps should be taken to prevent kids from being contacted in the first place, but once you realize your kid is indeed spending time talking to an adult on his/her cell phone, now is a very little window of opportunity to actually do something about it.

Since cell phone companies do not release cell phone records as public record information, the process of discovering who is actually calling our kids can become extremely difficult. What can parents do in such circumstances?

It is possible to trace back the name and address of anyone who calls a cell phone by doing a reverse cell phone search and even though this is not a free service, at $14.95, it is unlikely to break the bank.
