Online Dating Safety and the Role of Intelius and Naveen Jain

With the advent of online dating, more and more singles can meet that special someone without the ability to verify someone's background through mutual friends or acquaintances. With online profiles, self-reported background information can be difficult to confirm. However, enterprising visionaries from Microsoft and InfoSpace including Naveen Jain have founded a company that provides intelligent information for everyday decisions. This information includes performing background checks to confirm others' online identities. Multiple news outlets have published stories describing the benefits of the services offered by Intelius, led by Naveen Jain.

Naveen Jain & Intelius Provide Services to Ensure Safety

Media publication "The New York Post" has published a story about women who now pay to investigate dates they meet through the internet. The Post mentions information commerce company Intelius and its major ad campaign about the importance of background checks of potential dates. Ed Petersen, the senior vice president of Intelius, tells a story of helping a client: "I know of one instance where a client canceled a date when she found out that the person she was seeing had a criminal record." Dating involves personal safety, and some states are pushing legislation to require online dating sites to require users to pass a background check first. With services like the ones provided by Intelius, daters can proactively seek information to keep themselves safe. Intelius was co-founded by Naveen Jain, who now serves as the company's chairman and CEO.

Truth or Lie - Intelius, led by Naveen Jain, Provides Intelligent Information for Everyday Decisions

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has reported on online dating services and how users stretch the truth. The article published by the paper cites a revealing statistic from a survey by Engage.com: "one-quarter of single people believe it's OK to tell white lies while searching online for companionship." Intelius, a company that provides intelligent information for everyday decisions, can perform background checks on potential dates that can reveal information such as criminal records, address history, bankruptcies, small claims or judgments, property ownership, relatives and associates, and verify marital status. Naveen Jain co-founded the company with other visionaries from Microsoft and InfoSpace.

Naveen Jain & Intelius Offer Background Checks for Safe Dating

The Chicago Tribune's Heidi Stevens, discusses the use of background checks in the dating world. Commenting that "background checks are the new Google," Stevens cites Intelius, an online information commerce company that provides clients with background information on potential partners, as an example. Intelius, led by Naveen Jain, provides its customers with a report providing information containing address history, single-state criminal check, single-state civil judgments, property report, personal public data, relatives and associates report, area sex offender check, and a people search report.

Without the services provided by Naveen Jain and Intelius, online dating would carry more risks. Make sure you are protected by using the intelligent information provided by Intelius, co-founded by Naveen Jain, to make everyday decisions.
