Using Cover During Surveillance

Best Trick to Using Cover During Surveillance

Private investigators often use cover when conducting surveillance, and these are a few of the things we’ve learned through trial and error.

Proper planning is essential to a successful surveillance operation, and part of that planning is the use of cover. Is it needed? What will work best for the situation? What tools do you need?

We’ve sat in apartment complexes where it’s easy to blend in without any cover, and we have sat along the sides of roads where everyone that passes stops to see if you’re okay -and what you are doing.

The thing about cover is that you have to be able to sell it without trying too hard. If you don’t do enough they won’t believe you, but if you push it on them too much they will get suspicious. For example, simply saying you are conducting a survey and handing them a generic business card may not be enough.  However, a sign on the side of your vehicle, a traffic vest laying on your front dash, and an orange traffic light on the top of your car may be enough that they won’t even stop to ask you what you are doing.

Conducting a survey is a common cover story for detective agency. To make it convincing here are a few things you can do.

Set up a website- Sites like GoDaddy and WordPress have inexpensive domains and websites that can quickly be set up with a fictitious business.

Get a phone number- You can set up a phone number for the cover business by using a drop phone, an answering service, or using one of the various apps available. For Android try Line Two, Burner, or Sideline. We use a service called Answer India. You can set up an account for Rs.1000 and they will answertwenty phone calls -which should be plenty. The benefit is that if someone is suspicious, when they call, a real person will answer the phone in a professional manner.

Get some props- Depending on your cover, this could be traffic vest, cones, signs, orange safety lights, etc. I have a fake ID badge on a lanyard that I hang from my rear-view mirror. Anyone that stops to ask what I am doing can clearly see it. Sometimes it’s the little things that make a big difference.

Get signs for your vehicle- You can have professionally made magnetic signs for your vehicle throughcompanies like Vista Print. They are relatively inexpensive, but if you are on a budget, you can print you own sign on a piece of printer paper, self laminate it, and stick on some magnets. The self
laminating sheets and magnets can be picked up at Wal-Mart for less than Rs.500. Make sure the sign includes that website and phone number you previously set up for the cover business.

Business cards- Pick up some blank business cards sheets so you can print business cards as needed from your office. You’ll want the phone number and website to your business, and a fake name. I use my real first name and a fake last. This way I don’t mess up and say my real first name, and then hand out a business card with a different name.

When someone does stop to ask you what you are doing, sell your cover and stick to it. Most likely a quick explanation of what you are doing will be enough, but that is not always the case. They may ask you what kind of survey you are doing, or why you are doing the survey? Be prepared for every possible question so you can provide a quick answer without thinking. If asked what the “traffic survey” is for you could respond with they are considering widening the road, or adjusting the speed limit. Another option is to play dumb. You could say you are not sure, and that the company contracts to do surveys for various reasons – all you know is that they pay you to sit and be bored all day. If you start complaining about your “job” they are most likely to leave you alone.

Be sure not to oversell your cover. Talking too much can come off as you are trying to convince the person instead of simply being honest.

Be nice and smile. That may be hard for some people, but it will get you farther. If you are nice and smile people are more likely to believe you, and not see you as a threat. If you are rude, and give the impression you want to be left alone, people may become suspicious no matter what you say.

There are obviously many other cover stories that can be used. This is just the one my company tends to use on rural surveillance where blending in is difficult, and everyone wants to know if you need help. One other story we’ve yet to use, but will in the future, is that we are looking for an employee
that is supposed to be in the area conducting door to door surveys, but the company believes he/she is not actually working and lying about the results.

Then asked them if they’ve seen a white car in the area with a sign on the door with the company logo? Hand them your card and ask them to call you if a survey tech stops by their house anytime in the next few days. You may also add that you will be in the area for the next couple days.

Be creative with your cover stories, and think about how you would see things from the others perspective. Would you believe the story?

The last tip- don’t tell people you are waiting for someone if you are going to be in the area for several more hours, and eight hours the next day.
This will look very suspicious as time passes and you are still there.

You don’t always need cover, but sometimes hiding in plain sight is the best option.

Thanks and have a nice day

Cheating Husband or Wife

Husband or Wife Cheating

A husband having an affair is likely to be one of the most painful and devastating things that can happen to you. Not knowing if your husband is cheating on you or not is equally as painful. Even the prospect of your husband being unfaithful is painful and extremely disruptive. Each of the private investigators at Forensic Detective in New Delhi, India is here to help clients like you with this issue, every day. We know that you need a private investigator to get you proof so that you can move forward with your life.

We all know that both sexes are guilty of infidelity and that blame for a broken relationship is not the fault of a gender, but there are several aspects of infidelity that are more attributable to men then women.

Recent studies indicate that males are more likely to engage in adulterous activity for the sexual experience only, than are women.

Although this is not a rule, we do see more instances of men cheating on their wives purely for the physical act of sex.

These men are more likely to have a relationship with any willing female and to allow that relationship to end quickly or immediately than are women.
Women committing adultery tend to initiate an affair for some “greater purpose” than lust. A woman can find a man for sex any time they want to whereas
a man cannot always find a woman willing to have sex with him.

These types of cheating men will often have more interest in the physical aspect of the relationship and tend not to get as emotionally attached
to their cheating partner in the affair as women do.

Experts say that unlike women who undoubtedly fantasize about extracurricular romance but who are able to separate that fantasy from reality; men are more likely to be unable to distinguish between “mental longings” and physical transgressions, many times not realizing the true scope of what
they are doing until it's too late.

The next argument made about men and infidelity is that men are “naturally inclined” to try and “mate” with as many women as possible. This argument implies that like some animals, men want to procreate and “spread their seed” to as many women as possible.
Whether there is any validity to this argumentor not is best left up to the scientific community, but there is no doubt based on our experience as private investigators that more men are able to engage in infidelity with less guilt than are women. (i.e. the guy who goes to the local “massage parlor” once a year, but has no remorse and simultaneously, no feelings for the masseuse/prostitute is somewhat unique to men) This does not mean that some women do not engage in affairs and adultery without remorse, it is just less common. Please understand that despite the threat of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases,
there is a pool of women out there who like to have intercourse with many men, often with complete strangers, some of whom do it for money. They can be with 250-300 men in a year, sometimes two or three in the same day!
Men also appear to be driven by the desire to feel good and to be with someone that arouses them. They often stray when they find an opportunity to have
sex with someone that is “hotter” then their wife or partner or is in some way more sexually exciting. If they perceive their wife as being overweight,
out of shape, non-responsive or too crabby, infidelity becomes a much more realistic option.

We have heard story after story about a husband who we catch cheating who reports that it is his wife’s fault. “She got fat”; “she only cares about the kids”or no longer cares about having exciting sex. Men like to feel important and desired and when a woman shows an interest, it feels good and they go after it. When a stranger shows an interest in a man, they get aroused. Put a man who is unhappy at home or in his marital bed in that scenario and you can guess what happens.

The last difference is that more cheating men seem to get away with it. They seem to be more capable of maintaining the “norm” at home while carrying on the affair. If the affair is detected, it appears that a wife is more likely to stay with an adulterer husband then the opposite, thus sending the message
to the males of our society that even if they do get caught, it must be acceptable because “so and so” had been cheating for years, got caught and his wife got over it. Society also tells men that having sex with as many women as possible is the way to go. Many people adore hearing about the sexual exploits of the likes of Hugh.

The ability to sleep with many women is linked to the ideas of having power, status and money, all things that the average husband strives for. As long as women tolerate infidelity on the part of their husband, husbands will likely take advantage of it.

Think about the old and how the fact that even in times when marriage was deemed to be more sacred than it is now, a husband’s inclinations toward being unfaithful after a period of marriage was so pronounced that it merited its own name.

Something that is not gender specific but is worth mentioning is that in almost all cases of marital infidelity, something is wrong in the marriage. Either the husband or the wife is unhappy and likely both. Someone’s needs are not being met. Something does not work the way they want it to.

Child Custody And Visitation

Child Custody

Child Custody and their effects on your loving child

One of the most difficult things to do during a divorce is to establish child custody and child visitation. If a couple can't agree, then the courts will make a decision for them based on what is in the best interest of the child.

The best interest’s standards are determined by the court and are intended to allow the child the least amount of interruption in their daily routine. It is also enforced to protect them from being displaced from                   their home just because their parents are getting a divorce.

 If two parents live separately before filing for divorce, the parent the child was living with during this process will most likely be favored, especially if that parent stayed in the family home. When parents have not been living separately prior to the divorce, the one who took care of the child the most during the marriage will potentially be favored.

Factors that can help the court determine what’s in the best interest of the children include:

Parent's ability to provide food, shelter, clothing and medical care 

Health of the Parent Child's age, gender and health 

Lifestyle of the parent and stability of the environment

Emotional ties between parent and child

Willingness of parent to allow a healthy relationship between the child and the other parent
Child's preference if over the age of 12

If you are divorcing and going through the difficult challenges of winning primary custody of your child, resist the temptation to use emails, phone messages or posting on the internet to vent your feelings about your ex. Here are a few tips below that can help you keep from regretting poor communication decisions while litigating in court:

Don't post anything derogatory about your ex on the internet (i.e., Facebook, Myspace, blogs, etc.)

Never say anything in an email to your ex that you wouldn't want a judge to see
Reassure your children that both mom and dad will always love them and that the divorce isn't their fault.

Try to maintain your child's daily routine as much as possible
Allow your ex to talk to your children when they are with you. Never bad mouth your ex in front of the children or try to turn them against him/her.

Don't use the children to deliver messages, money or anything else to your ex.
Don't fight in front of the children or drag them into your fights.

If you are going through a divorce and feel strongly that your ex should not have primary custody due to any of the factors listed above or other reasons, contact Forensic Detective at +91-9958045226 Free Consultancy Services.

We can develop a plan to expose your ex of anything that would not be in the best interest of the child, and get proof that s/he isn't the parent that should have primary custody.

Private Detectives Investigate Cases

A Basic Guide Into How Private Detectives Investigate Cases

Conducting an investigation as a private detective can be a highly sensitive matter; often staying on the right side of the law can be a difficult task in itself during an investigation. This piece will take a closer look at just how private detectives usually conduct investigations.

The first thing a private investigator will need before ‘kicking off’ his or her investigation is for a case to be brought forward by the client. Some of the more common jobs that private detectives are asked to deal with include finding out whether a spouse or partner has been having an affair, uncovering workplace theft and dishonesty, tracking down and locating stolen property, and tracing long lost friends and relatives – to name a few.

Conducting an investigation as a private detective agency can be a highly sensitive matter;

often staying on the right side of the law can be a difficult task in itself during an investigation. This piece will take a closer look at just how private detectives usually conduct investigations.

Once the investigator has received his or her brief they can get to work. Initially the case will be discussed with the prospective client in order to ascertain whether or not it can be legally solved. Once the investigator deems the investigation ‘achievable’ and legitimate, a budget or retainer will be established with regards to the case. Generally speaking, this budget will cover everything the investigator will need in order to gather the information needed to solve the case.

Once the budget has been set the private detective can get to work with the matter of solving the case. We’ll use the example of an unfaithful spouse or partner here. The investigator will usually follow the suspected adulterer around in order to ascertain whether he or she has been cheating. Keeping his or her distance, the private investigator will often use a DSLR camera with a lens that is able to capture crystal clear images from a fair distance away. Once all of the evidence has been analysed and organised, these findings will be presented to the client.


We’ve only touched on one of the many types of investigations private detectives will have to work with in their industry. There are a number of different investigations that a private detective will need to carry out through his or her career. The wide range of skills needed to perform this job is often tested to the extreme during some of the cases. Whether yours is a complex and time-consuming matter, or calls for a quick, ‘neat’ investigation you can enlist the services of an expert. If you are seeking private detectives with skill and experience, you needn’t look further than us at Forensic Detective
