Creepy

Creepy is a simple to use tool that allows you to obtain geolocation information from users that are active on social networking platforms and image hosting websites.

It’s an OSINT (Open-source intelligence) tool, which means that it relies on the use of information that is made available to you through public sources. This fact places the application on the borderline between intrusive or not. It all comes down to the manner in which you use the information that Creepy offers you.

The application displays a comprehensive interface and enables you to get the info you need in a couple of clicks. All you have to do is enter the username or ID for the person you want to geolocate and the application does the rest.

After the person is found, Creepy displays in a table the screen name and full name as well as a photo that is associated to the username. With that you also get to use a built-in map viewer that pinpoints the location and displays it for you.

As far as map sources go, Creepy allows you to choose from Google (Satellite, Street, Hybrid), OpenStreetMap, Maps For Free, Virtual Earth Satellite and others. They are all fully explorable meaning that you can zoom in for a closer look or out for a more general one. Moreover, you get to export the data in KML and CSV formats for further analysis.

A thing that you need to know in order to make the application work is that you have to authorize Creepy to connect with the online sources that you want to search in.

In closing, Creepy can certainly help you locate various people or online entities that regularly use social networking.
