FindMugshots.com is a front end for PeopleFinders

No records are held on this domain. Searches are passed to PeopleFinders, which assembles the report and sells the subscription. It does run a removal of its own (A form that demands a photo ID), and finishing it clears this shopfront rather than the database behind it. The removal filed with PeopleFinders is the one that clears what you found.

  • Hands off to PeopleFinders

Searching a name here ends up on PeopleFinders, which assembles the report and offers the subscription. The domain promises mugshot and arrest photo searches, and a visitor arriving from a search result has no way to tell that from the page. Anything found through it belongs to PeopleFinders, so that is where a removal has to be filed.

Each broker is scored 1 to 4 across the six dimensions above; higher means more exposure, and the overall gauge is their average.

What each dimension means
  • Data published: how much and how sensitive the personal data they put out.
  • Re-listing frequency: how quickly you reappear after opting out.
  • Complaint record: volume and pattern of complaints across BBB, Trustpilot, and Sitejabber; no findable review presence counts against the broker.
  • Opt-out friction: how hard the removal process is to complete.
  • Operator opacity: how hidden the operating company and its principals are.
  • Prior data incidents: history of breaches or leaks of the data they hold.

What the walk found

Searching a name here ends up on PeopleFinders, which assembles the report and offers the subscription.

The site does publish an opt-out page of its own, and it asks for something no other site on this list does: a photograph of a state ID or a driver's licence, sent to them by email. Their own instructions tell you to obscure the photograph and the licence number first. Handing identity documents to a mugshot publisher is a real cost, and it buys removal from a shopfront rather than from the database behind it.

FAQ

Q & A

Common questions
How do I remove my information from FindMugshots.com?

This domain does run a removal of its own (A form that demands a photo ID), and it is worth finishing, but it clears the shopfront rather than the record. What you saw belongs to PeopleFinders. That is where the removal has to be filed.

Is FindMugshots.com a data broker?

Not in the sense that matters. It holds no database and it is not on California's data-broker register, which is what a company with records to sell is required to join. It is a shopfront, and PeopleFinders is the shop.

Why does FindMugshots.com exist?

To capture searches and be paid for passing them on. The domain name does the work of looking authoritative, and the referral fee is the product.
