Solve : Free IP Tracker/Address???

Answer»

I am not sure if anyone can help me with this or not but I will try to explain this as best as I can cuz this is for a friend of mine tbh. He is having a "problem" with someone but needs to have proof for the police to do anything about it, he has the GUYS IP address but (IPs can be changed) also needs something that shows this persons address so he can turn it over to the police and actually do something about this person. So does anyone know of a site that this can be gotten or to use this persons IP address to find his actual address. Anyway this is something serious so any help is appreciated.I am afraid an IP address cannot help you find someone's address.

What is this serious problem? Perhaps we can direct you to someone that MAY be better and well-suited than the police in this case?Some websites will allow you to do what's called a "Visual Traceroute". This will help you figure out where in the world they are (in general). If it is a very serious issue, you COULD possibly hand the IP address over to the police. If the police believe the crime is severe enough, they should be able to ask the Internet Service Provider (ISP) who is associated with that range of IP addresses to release information about who has or had that IP lease at that time.

As a word of caution, the police will be very mad at you if you give them an IP address and say "Arrest them! They called me a doo-doo head on the internet." (The moral of the story being that you will be in trouble if the police feel you are wasting their time.)

I too would like to know what this serious problem is.you could probably find a major route close to them with www.geoip.comQuote from: tech.kyle on October 23, 2008, 04:01:52 AM

They won't be mad cuz as said already talked to the police about it some, but they NEED proof and it is much more serious than someone calling someone else a "doo-doo head" as you said. I don't want to put out anymore personal info than what I have about this SITUATION you will just have to trust me or ....not. Already been to the police but need more proof on the issue at hand so the police can arrest them which is why I am looking to get the home address of the IP address that is causing this mess, then I will hand it over so they can do there job and end this.

Thanks for the info guys.To get their home address, you would need to talk to their internet service provider. They legally can not give you that information to anyone outside of the government. The most you can do is give them their IP address, the date and time that this happened and explain to them in detail the crime.It can be done legally but was trying to find a free site instead of paying for it. If the Police are leaving it up to you to track this guy down they MUST know more than you've told us...No they are not leaving it up to me to track this guy it's just until they get more proof (I mean it would be like me saying hey patio is harrassing me & threatening me ok can't do anything until they have proof like someone else witnessing it or e-mail or whatnot. they just need something to even try to go after the guy they can't just go after him for no reason I mean anyone can say hey he did this) they can't do anything to this person so I am trying to get it, but doesn't matter anymore this topic is closed it is a private matter and I won't reveal the what it is as I have gotten proof now.
