Find out the owner of a phone number?

[jmmbacon]

Does anyone know of a way to find out the owner of a cell phone if you know their number? I see many sites for reverse lookups for cell phones but they charge almost 100 bucks.

All of the free reverse phone number sites have a fee after you put in the phone number. Anywho.com or whitepages.com or any of that stuff does not work since you have to pay to get a report.

Are there any ACTUAL free ones out there?

Maybe I missed something, but how do you know that it is a cell phone number? Ever tried calling to that number. If you want to know without being spotted, you can call from a phone booth. Sometime, users answer using their name or company name.

Most directory web sites that have reverse phone lookup capabilities will tell you which company the phone number is registered with. You can easily find if it's a cell number that way.
