Scam- would give 0 score if I could
September 14, 2023

I needed to get my divorce date and I thought I was using the county website. It was only $1 so I completed the transaction. Then noticed a $28.95 charge on my account. They even sent a text to see if I was satisfied with my purchase. When I told them the report they sent was not the one I requested this is what I got. When I asked for my $$ back they stopped responding.

BEWARE-MAJOR SCAM
August 22, 2022

Why aren't these guys from ALABAMA in jail. TOTAL SCAM. Claim to charge you $1 and they charge you $23.95 recurring and they PROVIDE ZERO information. BEWARE. This is a sophisticated scam operation.

They even have a guy in Customer Service who I called to find out what the original site where I was to be charged was located. He claimed to tell me but there was no sound. When he asked me if there way anything else he could do, I said that he had not yet given me what I asked for. His response? "Well, you must not have been listening" and then hung up. STAY AWAY. SCAMMERS ALL.

Publicrecords.info and Publicrecords.us.org are Scam Web Sites
July 18, 2022

Started out on 1 site. www.publicrecords.info

Paid $1 for 1 marriage license report. Waited for awhile, window pops up, pay one dollar with card, no where did I sign up for any package that cost $23.95, another window pops up, "Report ready, click here!" They sent a report on some unknown persons car.

I clicked on the link that says, "Contact Us."

Well, I lost the report and was connected to:

[email protected]

I ask what kind of business were they running?

Then I get a message thanking me for joining. I didn't join anything. I sent another message and said, "I paid $1 for 1 record and I didn't get what I thought that I had paid for."

Now I have received 6-7 messages stating:

I was sent this message twice.

Fraud and Scam Operation
April 20, 2022

A scam and fraud operation. I paid $1 for a service, signed up for nothing else, and $24.95 charge appeared two weeks later on my credit card. Reported this company to my credit card operator who is investigating them for fraud.

Judging from the number of similar complaints, DO NOT INTERACT WITH THIS COMPANY.

Do even go there
March 17, 2022

Crooks,CROOKS, Thieves!!! They said it was $1.00 for the information I wanted. I put in my credit card and then that wanted a lot of personal information -- I got out immediately, just as fast my credit card was charged $49.99. Capital One didn't even have a phone number for them.

My rating would not be even one it would be 5 years in federal prison.

This is a scam!
November 16, 2021
This is a scam!

Records.us.org is pretending to be peoplerecords.net which is a Real Company
September 2, 2021

Boy this company is good in a very bad way.

1) they lie

2) when they bill they use a completely different website. https://records.us.org/ but bill on credit card under peoplerecords.net

3)Their verbiage contradicts itself, very confusing. First don't worry they won't charge you $40 like everyone else, then on the same day they charge for the $1/ they pop you for $24.99

This was a scam
August 24, 2021

I requested a report, searching for the death of a child in 1935. I put in my card info and Thought I was getting a $1 charge, today there was a $24.95 charge on my card.

The report wouldn’t open, and the support phone numbers didn’t work either.

How do I get a hold of Public Records.org? I need to cancel this so called membership I didn’t know I was signing up for?

DebsNAmood September 02, 2021

Try going to records.us.org they billed under peoplerecords.net I found them by going back in my history file on internet, when I visited their website in the beginning. They are a huge scam company that I am now screaming online.

Charges that aren't mine started showing up within 2 days.
July 20, 2021
I too have started getting charges to my bank/debit card that are not mine ever since I entered my debit card info on this site.

DO NOT BE ANOTHER OF THEIR VICTIMS
July 13, 2021

I too was taken by this site.

I wanted merely to find a death record and chose this site because they advertise as "free" Then it went to one dollar , but after they get your financial information, they charge you $18..95 and you don't know it.. When questioned, they tell you that's what you signed up for.

I never signed up for anything and I was furious because I live on a very small income..I insisted they return the money to my acct which they did, but I would not recommend this Co to anyone..

Publicrecords.us.org is a scam
February 22, 2021

Publicrecords.us.org is a scam of an operation, with several ways, noted so far, how to rip you off:

1. Bait and switch offer in amount charged. Was charged a monthly $18.95 subscription for a year in lieu of a one-time $1 per record fee which I thought I was signed up for.

2. All I agreed to was a birth/ death certificate not a comprehensive background check tool and not a subscription.

3. A few days later The credit card used for the birth and death certificate to buy items online subscriptions at online retailers I have never heard of.

Initially I signed up for $1.00 each for a birth and death record for a deceased family member for a total of $2. The certificate info was never received, but I did get a text from their organization asking about the “report I ordered” and was redirected to e-mail their customer service.

When I questioned their marketing positioning and that I am a Law Enforcement Officer, who will continue their search through Surrogate Court they quickly cancelled my “subscription” that I never agreed to. A few days later the credit card I used for the birth and death certificate was noted with multiple fraudulent online purchases.

Don't believe anything they promise. It is all a lie and a SCAM to take your money.
November 22, 2020

publicrecords.us.org/courttrecords.us.org is quite the SCAM. All I wanted was 1 Marriage Certificate. After the $1 they said they could not provide a copy of my marriage certificate. So, I went to one of the links they suggested based on the fact they said they would reimburse me. "we will reimburse any extra fees you incur." (see below).

So, I got all of the information they requested and then they said they had already reimbursed me $18.95 because I signed up for the volume discount. Now, why would I do that when I only wanted 1 document?

So, now because my account is closed they cannot reimburse me, even when they asked for my home address for where to send the check to.

Wish I would have investigated before. It looks like many people also have the same complaints.

Now, I'm out a total of $31.50 when I could have gone directly to the court house and gotten a copy much cheaper. I think they are probably getting a 'kick-back' from this additional monies.

Email below where I was being promised a full reimbursement of any extra fees I incur:

Emailed Karmen CS Manager and was told they have already refunded the $18.95 (which I never wanted and never saw the charge or refund) and now my account is closed they can't reimburse me my full amount. I gave them my address, don't know why they can't send a check in the mail me? As they promised to "reimburse any extra fees you incur". I also plan to file a complaint with the BBB as well. Don't make promises you can't or won't keep or with "requirements" not listed up front. This is a bad Business Policy and poor Customer Service.

What a rip-off!!!!!!
March 15, 2020
What a scam. I register to get a report on myself. The report was completely useless and contained wrong information. After I paid $1 for the report, this place took $18.95 out of my bank account. I called my bank and said I enrolled in a monthly service. I said I did not. My bank agreed to stop all future withdrawals from this place. I emailed the company who said they would stop all future payments, which my bank already did. They said they would refund my money immediately, they did not issue me a refund. I don't have a job. This company screwed up my bank account, took my money, lied to me. Don't waste your money worth this rip off company. I will also be contacting the better business bureau. Andy is a liar!!!!

Watch out for scam hard to read fine print that doesn’t exist.
October 16, 2019
I was looking for information some how I ended up researching on public record.org I thought I was ordering a report it said the cost was one dollar for one report but when I never got the report and started to complain about not getting the report for a dollar I was informed that I had signed up for a 19 report a month discount plan that only cost 15.99 a month not the one dollar for one report as I went back to read and review what I signed up I was never able to find the 19 bulk report discount plan that I had signed up for. I was able to cancel the charges immediately then I was contacted by someone named Andy who was sorry but if I was to send him the info he would give it to Brian and the report would be sent to me when I sent the information in Brian responded and said sorry no information available but if I rejoined they would see what they could do please stay away from this company and keep your card in your wallet.

September 23, 2019

Same company (Josh Fraser), same scam, different name
January 22, 2013

This is the same type website operated by Josh Fraser as seen in previous reviews. This website claims to charge you one dollar but through devious actions, ends up charging you over 20 dollars per month, totalling close to 200 dollars before finally stopping. Josh Fraser is the contact for over 117 different websites, all operating in the same way. See the reviews on vehiclehistory.com on here to get an idea of how Josh Fraser's customer service really works.

When accessing this site and typing a name in their search engine. Did you know that there are 75 Scammy McScampants in Alabama according to this websites records? Considering every other legitimate search engine contains 0 results in the entire US for that name, this tips me off that this is yet another scam site.
