40 Years of Human Hunting with Alex Price

Send us Fan MailMeet the man who's spent 40 years tracking people who don't want to be found. Alex Price, known in the industry as the "Skip Guru," takes us deep into the shadowy world of skip tracing, fugitive recovery, and asset location with stories that feel ripped from a Hollywood thriller.Unlike most professionals who perform skip tracing as just one function of their job, Alex has made it his life's work. From locating vehicles for repossession to bringing fugitives back to jail, he's mastered the art of finding people across industries. His journey began unexpectedly while working as a bouncer when a bail bondsman showed him a photo of a fugitive who happened to be his ex-girlfriend. The substantial reward for her location sparked his interest in a field where his natural talents could shine.The Skip Guru doesn't hold back as he shares heart-pounding stories from his four decades in the field. One tale involves tracking a scammer from Florida to Greece who taunted him with photos, while another recounts having a MAC-10 pistol pressed against his forehead during an attempted car repossession. These near-misses reveal why he's grateful to now work "in the shadows" as a data specialist rather than in the increasingly dangerous field operations where multiple recovery agents have lost their lives.What makes Alex unique isn't just his experience but his philosophy. He emphasizes the crucial importance of empathy and non-judgment, noting that "there's not one of us that isn't one or two bad decisions away from being in the same boat as some of the people we hunt." This perspective has allowed him to approach his work with humanity rather than cynicism.Now working with Locate Smarter after two failed retirement attempts, Alex focuses on teaching and developing new skip tracing products.
