How to Find a Missing Person With No Cost

There are many reasons to locate a missing person. If someone went missing unexpectedly, it could be a criminal matter. Other times you may simply want to find a friend who you lost touch with. In either case, a private investigator can assist in locating the missing party. However, this is often expensive and may not be practical. Finding a missing person without cost frequently requires a lot of research and patience.

Instructions

1. Contact the police department where the missing person lives if you suspect criminal activity or of the person has been missing for more than 24 hours. The police will investigate the disappearance at no charge to you. You will need to file an official police report.

2. Visit the missing person's last known place of employment and ask if anyone has seen him or knows where he is. You might be able to get a lead on the person's current whereabouts.

3. Call or e-mail any of the person's family or friends that you have information on to see if any of them know where the missing person is. You might even find the missing person yourself through this process if she is staying with a friend or relative.

4. Enter the person's name into online searches and social media sites. The results may turn up recent information about the person and could reveal the current address or current city the person resides in.
