Is it illegal to run a background check on someone without their consent?

I am looking to run a background check on someone I've been dealing with for 3 + years who seems very secretive about a lot of stuff. I'd like to know who I am dealing with as they're starting to come across as a sociopath to me. So is it illegal?

    Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://tinyurl.im/aH4DT

    Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.

    You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

    Instantly run searches and gather information about the people you interact with on a daily basis or people who live around you. You will be shocked with what you find out. The real question is, can you handle the truth https://webmd.im/Public-Criminal-Records

    NO, it is not illegal, that is why companies advertise background check sites.

    For $19.00 to $39.00, depending on what info I want, I can tell you more about you, than you probably know about yourself.
