@anisab.notary I see you’re a Brand-New Notary Cafe member. Congratulations & Welcome!
You’re correct this information is immediately available on Notary Cafe within the GOLDMINE of a database. 
It’s very insightful & helpful, too! True, some of the posts are “dated,” but continue to be VALID.
It’s always wise to research & vet a new client prior to providing a definitive confirmation to them for your initial Signing Order for them. As such, a great start of research would begin within the Notary Cafe forums Search Function.
Most members express that they find it difficult/NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to locate the Search Function in order to access the wealth of info available within the database.
To be helpful, I’ve inserted an image for you & others [see below] to help members locate it to unlock the wisdom & knowledge of other members on the forums.
Accessing the database to locate info about potential clients has saved many of us an inordinate amount of time ‘chasing’ payments for Services professionally provided to potential non-payers . . .
