Spying on friends, partners, and loved ones has become big business and those internet entrepreneurs are cashing in on it big time by opening new online lookup services to cater for the demand. However, there is no cell phone reverse look up deals despite most of them offering a free service. Let’s explain why.

The Dangling Carrot

Most business strategies use the dangling carrot method of advertising to entice potential customers into their sales funnel.

Look up tools may come back after a search and say something like; ‘Congratulations! We have found the information you are looking for. If you would like to access this information, then continue here. That continue link will then take you to a page where you can pay to retrieve the information.

Is it dishonest? No, not really, but it is a bit misleading.
