It is a scam. The advertisement showed that name and address were available for the specific number I searched, at least it seemed like it. I paid the fee to get the information, but after I paid there was not a name or address. To get those I would have to pay another fee for a "tracer report". So i tried several other numbers including my own phone and my family members. None, not a single one had a name or an address, but they did have links where i could buy a "tracer report". Funny thing is when I web searched the same numbers the RPD ads would come up saying there was name and address information. Looks like they say that for every number - but only in their ads.

The member section had lots of links to find different information, but every thing I looked at required additional fees. I never opted to pay another fee on top of the yearly membership for the "premium services" so I don't know if the trace reports work or not, but the yearly membership is a SCAM. It also seems they have astroturffed the internet pretty well with a bunch of fake blogs and blog posts (that are all the same and repeated) to convince people it is not a scam. This is due to their affiliate program, so people who refer others get a piece of the action. They have links on their site to the review sites so their affiliates can leave good reviews. But I found several posts with people claiming the same experience as mine. There is no real information here that you can't already find for free. You get nothing from the yearly membership accept the offer to pay more fees for the information you thought you subscribed to.
