You can perform a free reverse email lookup in the following places;
Social networking sites such as Facebook.com, MySpace.com, twitter.com, and linked.com.
In subject directories such as classmates.com, reunion.com, and militaryconnection.com.
There are also alumni sites online that you can check out. If you have a company email, you can search their site.
These are free sites and if you are lucky the person is connected to one of those sites, they will find them. The problem is the information you get. People don’t normally use their correct information on such sites, unless they want to be found. If you have a spam email that you’re doing a reverse lookup on, then such sites are off the radar.
