Their main secret is the "social security trace." In using this type of search, they're simply running the subject's social security number through the credit bureaus and getting back so-called "header files" from his/her credit report.
Header files contain only the "header" section of a credit bureau file, which provides the subject's full name, address, and vital information such as date of birth and sometimes even current employment. Header files were, until recently, considered public information under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
The Graham, Leach Act has, however, restricted their use to "permissable purposes," meaning, essentially, business/investment transactions, insurance, employment, and litigation.
