CocoFinder

With the surge in popularity of easy-to-use People Search Engines, many of our private data has become easily accessible to everyone and can be exploited by bad actors for their gains.

These online services require little to no effort to quickly lookup anyone’s details such as name, identity, address, etc. 

One of the most widespread methods is using reverse phone lookups to find information about someone through their phone number. Here is an article to reverse phone lookup that can be quite helpful.  

Someone’s personal information in the hands of the wrong people can be very dangerous. It can be used in various ways to harm you, including:

Identity theft: With access to your data, someone can impersonate your identity and commit identity theft. They can easily take out heavy loans, mortgages or apply for credit cards under your name. This may land you in legal trouble with the authorities, and it may take a long time to clear your name.

Stalking: Anyone can look up your social media handles and even your home address and contact number online. This information can be used by stalkers and other bad actors to follow you around and harm you.

In addition to this, you may find irrelevant or wrong information about you online that might defame you. Since many companies use these People Search engines for background checks, it will become difficult for you to find employment. 

Cocofinder is one of the top People Search engines that host publicly available details of almost everyone. However, since some people are uncomfortable sharing their details online, Cocofinder easily lets you hide your details from the public record. 

In the following article, find out how to remove your information from CocoFinder.
