Who's watching you?

by Josef Kafka

Have you recently discovered bugs or covert video or audio devices in your home or place of business? If so, you are likely to be worried about whether you can trust those around you. It’s completely natural for you to be concerned, but it’s important to remain calm and avoid becoming paranoid. Private investigation agencies such as ours are experts in bugging and sweeping for bugs: we can help you find out who’s spying on you and take steps to ensure that it can’t happen again. However, you can take the first step towards recovering your peace of mind yourself. Think about where you discovered the bugging devices and what’s happening in your life at the moment. Doing this will allow you to identify possible suspects and decide who you can still trust.

1. Bugging devices in your home

Regrettably, if you discover bugging devices in your own home, you need to consider the possibility that family members of friends planted them. If your marriage seems to be in trouble, your spouse may have planted them to gather evidence against you preparatory to divorcing you. It’s also worth asking yourself if any of your friends have been acting oddly. Is it possible that you have given someone you consider a friend cause to seek revenge? Perhaps they are simply in trouble and were forced to bug your home. Regardless of who you suspect and what you think their motives might be, it’s important to report your suppositions to a professional private investigator and let them investigate: trying to investigate yourself could alert your suspect and cause them to try to cover their tracks. It may even put you in danger. For your own wellbeing, it’s important to decide who you can trust, but you should always leave the detective work to professionals!

2. Bugging devices in your office or place of business

If you discover bugging devices in your office or place of business, you may be the victim of a corporate espionage attempt. After all, the placement of the bugs suggests that the person spying on you wants to know about your work, your business or your company. Try to think of any rivals who might attempt espionage. Alternatively, ask yourself if there’s anyone within your own business who could benefit from learning your corporate secrets. They might be seeking advancement, or they may simply wish to sell information about your business to potential rivals.

3. Bugging devices located elsewhere

If you find a bugging device in another location (such as in your car or in secondary property that you own), you should ask yourself who has access to that location. You should also ask yourself what sort of thing you use that location for, as this may tell you what kind of information the would-be spy was looking for. This can help you identify suspects. When you find bugging devices in your home or office, it’s easy to guess whether the person spying on you wanted personal or corporate information. This is not necessarily true if you find devices in other locations. However, there is always a reason for the bugs to be planted there and a private investigator can help you find out what that reason is.

If you discover you are being bugged or spied on, working out who is a suspect and who you can still trust can give you peace of mind until you find out who the culprit is for certain. Just remember to let a private investigation agency uncover the truth: don’t attempt to undertake detective work yourself!
