It happens that you want to meet a person, but you don't know anything about him except his surname. The World Wide Web comes to the rescue, in which it is quite possible to find a person by last name. But the Internet is a rather abstract concept. Where exactly should you look for people?
Instructions
Step 1
Take advantage of social media. Not that this is a very easy way to find a person, knowing only the last name, but there is a chance. Enter the last name into the search engine of any social network (you can try the search in each one). Usually, in this case, search engines display too many options. If you know the person by sight, then you have a hard and tedious job - to review all the options available. But, if the game is worth the candle, then why not? If you have some additional information about a person, for example, name, city, date of birth or university where the person studied, then your task is greatly simplified. And if you have not a few hundred options, but a couple of dozen, it will be much easier to find a specific person from this list.
Step 2
Use search resources. However, in this case it will be more difficult to find a person by last name. However, if the person you are looking for does not have a very common surname and has his own Internet project, or he is simply registered under his own name on some sites, you can probably find him. However, in the case of search engines, it is not a fact that you will be given a person's contacts, as would be the case with social networks. Most likely, you will receive only brief information about the person, possibly links to the person's blog. And then, only if the person keeps an electronic diary or is relatively famous.
Step 3
Search for people through dedicated search sites. There are a lot of such people in the Russian Internet, but you should be very careful. Among other search sites, there are fraudulent sites that initially collect information about you, and then ask to send an sms to a specific number or enter your mobile phone number. As a rule, thanks to such scammers, you can lose several hundred rubles from your phone number. So, when choosing such a site that is looking for people, you need to be extremely careful and if you have the slightest doubt about the decency of the authors of the project, you should leave the suspicious site.
