NW3C member agencies (voting or associate) can submit search requests and receive results within 24 hours, free of charge. Our intelligence technician performs database searches on individuals and businesses as they relate to white collar crimes, cyber crimes, terrorism or exploitation of children.
Public database searches can be used to identify corporate officers, locate assets, identify relatives and associates, and trace an individual’s location and criminal record.
Our intelligence technician is also capable of charting data using i2 Analyst Notebook® for those search requests that may involve several related subjects.
NW3C utilizes a variety of public databases, including: CLEAR, TLO, Lexis-Nexis, Accurint and the National Insurance Crime Bureau. Users are reminded that state-level searches differ both in the types of records available and in the amount of information contained in the public filings.
