Protect Your Family from Consumer Scams & Risks
Cable installers, appliance repair personnel, plumbers, electricians, and landscapers are really strangers coming on your property. How can you be sure that these strangers are trustworthy and safe for you and your family? While consumers are mindful of the threats with retail or online shopping, you actually might be more at risk in your own home when you open your front door to servicing companies that fail to properly protect you and your family by not vetting their employees.
Be smart! Be proactive!! Check on your contractor. DIY – here is all you need to know to run a search on your contractor:
- Send an email to info@oraclescreening.com – please include discount code in the subject line, if you have one.
- Once we receive your email, we will send you a copy of a release to have your contractor complete and sign. We will also include an invoice to be paid via credit card.

The reports came back clear (no records found) does that mean the applicant has no criminal records?
Yes and NO – Yes, it might very well mean the applicant has no criminal records. However, the answer could be NO- They could have a record in a state or county that is NOT included in the search or the there could be a recent conviction (last 30 – 90 days) or more or a pending charge and that has not yet been adjudicated.
There are several reasons why no records might be found.
- The information entered was incorrect information like a misspelled first or last name and/or the incorrect date of birth.
- The search was conducted by name and date of birth; but available public records do not associate this name and/or date of birth with the record.
- The subject searched is a minor and we do not search juvenile records.
- A nickname was provided and court records use the subject’s full legal name, not nicknames. The best example is submitted Bill for your applicants first name when his legal name as shown on his drivers license in William.
