Anyone here using TLO as a research tool? My agency got on board with this a few months ago and I've found it to be beyond helpful, particularly with my fraud investigations, cell phone searches, address searches, etc.
For those not familiar, you can type in a name and DOB. Limit it to you state or conduct the search nationwide. Once you've located your person, you can click on comprehensive report and hold on to your *** because the information is over-whelming. It's extremely user friendly. You receive social security number responses and if they are linked to multiple numbers, all address history and the month/year they were being used (neighbors at those addresses which are also hyperlinked to their own responses), criminal histories, associates (both family, friends and criminal), cell phones connected to that person and landlines AND the services that carry them, email address, IP numbers, bankruptcy, businesses ever owned, property (to include purchase date, location, worth, taxes, who it was purchased from, loan amount, etc) and the lists go on and on and on.
My Chief appointed one person to be our admin and it took him less than three minutes to start my account. It has a double security system using your work email and password, then it sends you a secondary password everytime you log in via either your cell phone or your work email address.
I LOVE the fact I can print out the comprehensive reports because several of my other databases (two from DOD) won't allow me to print...only view. Granted, this is a public records search, but it has kept me from having to use multiple search engines. The information I've received has been very useful.
If your agency is not using this, I strongly suggest you give it a spin. Our road officers have been given access and use it for warrant services when the person is (of course) not at the address listed on the face of the warrant.
