Emails and phones from LinkedIn
Which LinkedIn tool checks contacts before you download them?
Scrupp checks every work email against the receiving mail server before it goes into your file. Phone numbers are not verified: you get the number the data sources hold for that person, so test-call new numbers before loading them into a dialer. You pay only for what is found: 1 credit per lead, +1 for a found email and +2 for a found phone.
The short answer
What is checked and what is not
| Contact | Checked before download | Charged when not found |
|---|---|---|
| Work email | Yes, against the receiving mail server | No |
| Phone number | No | No |
If a tool says every phone number is verified, ask how. Does it check the carrier and whether the line is active, or does it only return what a database holds? Each email comes back with its check status, so you can see which addresses were confirmed and which are on catch-all domains that accept any address.
What to expect
What you can honestly expect from a LinkedIn list
Across exports run through Scrupp, a work email is found for 36.3% of rows, and 10.0% of rows are confirmed by an accepted delivery. A tool that promises an email for every LinkedIn profile is filling the gaps with guesses. Plan the campaign for the share you actually get, and pay only for that share.
How it works
From a search to a checked list

1
Run your search
In LinkedIn or Sales Navigator. Sales Navigator stops at 2,500 results per search; Scrupp exports more than that from the same search.
-
2
Choose what to look up
Email, phone or both. Emails are checked before export; phones are returned as the sources hold them.

3
Download the file
CSV or Excel with the person, company, email and its check status, and phone.

Cost
What a list of 1,000 people costs
| What you export | Credits |

The free plan gives 100 credits every month, enough to test a 100-lead export. Paid plans start at $29 for 1,000 credits a month. See all plans and what costs no credits.
Limits
What Scrupp does not do
It does not verify phone lines, and it does not send messages or connection requests on LinkedIn. It exports the list with contact details; outreach happens in your own tools. For email lookups without phones, see the LinkedIn email finder.
FAQ
Common questions
Is there a LinkedIn prospecting tool that verifies phone numbers and emails before download?
For emails, yes: Scrupp checks each work email against the receiving mail server before it goes into your file. Phone numbers are not verified, but you pay only for the numbers that are found.
How do I avoid calling wrong numbers from a LinkedIn list?
Test-call a sample of new numbers before loading the list into a dialer, and drop numbers that reach a company switchboard instead of the person.
Do I pay for contacts that are not found?
No. A lead costs 1 credit; an email adds 1 credit and a phone adds 2 credits only when they are found.
Can I check a list I already have?
Yes. Upload a CSV with LinkedIn URLs, or names and companies, and Scrupp looks up and checks the emails and adds phone numbers where it finds them.
Does Scrupp send messages or connection requests on LinkedIn?
No. Scrupp does not automate actions on LinkedIn. It exports the list with contact details; outreach happens in your own tools.
