What AnyWho shows

  • Phone numbers, email addresses and your current address
  • Your address history and estimated wealth
  • Social media and dating profiles
  • Criminal records, where extra fees may apply

How to opt out of AnyWho

  1. Search spokeo.com for your name and city, and open your listing. Spokeo's form asks for a Spokeo listing's web address.

  2. Copy that web address. It looks like spokeo.com/Smith-Sample/Houston/TX/p12345678.

  3. Open the opt-out form. AnyWho's own opt-out address, anywho.com/optout, opens this same page: spokeo.com/optout (opens in a new tab)

  4. Paste the web address, add an email address you check and tap Opt Out.

  5. Click the link in the confirmation email. The request isn't finished until you do.

  6. Opt out each listing that is yours. Spokeo says each one has its own web address and is opted out on its own.

How long does it take?

Spokeo's opt-out page says a request should be processed in 24 to 48 hours. Search AnyWho for your name again after 2 days.

Will my AnyWho listing come back?

It can. Spokeo says your information may appear again as it gets new public records. Search your name, phone number and email again in about a month, then every few months, and after you move or change numbers.

Does it cost anything?

The opt-out form asks only for the listing's web address and an email address, with no payment and no sign-in.
