How background check properties are determined (credit, company, agency, security)

[Tiffgreene]

I recently did a background check on someone and want to know how the addresses(previous addresses) are determined. This someone has been married for 34 years. There are 2 addresses on there that she and her husband have never lived...however, she had an affair and those two addresses are also associated with the other person. How could her name be linked to those addresses?

Without going into the specific names, what type of background checking company did you use? Was it a traditional consumer reports type agency? Was it through a licensed investigation service? Was it some data broker? Or was it just some random whatever on the internet?

How do you know she had an affair? Maybe she used the guys address for things she didn't want her husband to see or maybe the affair guy used her social security number for credit with his address. What webs we weave when we try to deceive..lol
