...if you have just their SSN. Which isn't as hard to get as one might imagine.
Pricks. They shouldn't put this crap online, it should be walk-in.

passed away last year -- i couldn't get too far with 2 of the agencies. but the 3rd one i got pretty far. couldn't get the whole thing but i found out who had his mortgage, car loan, how many credit cards, etc. i did this because we were estranged for 28 years so there was a lot i didn't know about him.
so you do need the address, the state and some trick questions.
