Check if you are listed on PeopleLooker
PeopleLooker does not expose a stable public search URL we can prefill, so find your listing directly: open peoplelooker.com, search your full name plus your state (and previous states), and copy the URL of the record that is you. The opt-out form usually asks for that URL or the same name and location.
What PeopleLooker typically shows
- Addresses
- Phone numbers
- Criminal records
- Relatives
- Social profiles
The free Leak Check Me scan checks the details you provide against known breach records and the people-search sites we cover, so you can see the whole exposure picture before filing forms one by one.

What you need
- A CAPTCHA or human check in a normal browser
- An email address you control (they send a confirmation link)
- The URL of your listing (search peoplelooker.com for yourself first).
Gotchas
- The opt-out link redirects to an /svc/optout path; that is the real form.
- Cloudflare challenges block most automation.
- If you already opted out of BeenVerified with the same email, the PeopleLooker listing usually disappears too; verify anyway.
- PeopleLooker quotes up to four weeks in its own support answers, though most removals are faster.
Leak Check Me opens the PeopleLooker form and tracks the outcome.
PeopleLooker requires a step only you can do (a CAPTCHA, email confirmation). After you authorize a mission, our agent opens the official form with your scan details, hands you that step, records the request as filed only when the site confirms it, and re-checks the listing before anything is called removed. If the site blocks the agent, you get the same instructions above instead of a fake status.
Source Removal Sprint is $39 one-time for up to three eligible supported-source requests. MyPrivacyAgent Patrol is $19/month with re-checks; cancel anytime. Nothing is marked removed before a provider or native action succeeds.
