There are many ways that hiring a private investigator can help you get the information and proof you need to move forward with a case. There are different tools and methods that private investigators will use to get the information that they need. Private investigators will often use both surveillance and undercover operations to get the proof they need for their clients. It is important to understand the difference between these two different methods. Advanced Private Investigator & Security of Miami, FL is here to share some information about these methods, so you understand how we gather needed proof and evidence to prove your case.
Surveillance
Like mentioned above, there is a difference between surveillance and undercover operations. When you enlist the help of a PI to surveil an area, you are asking them to watch, observe and gather information depending on what they see and hear. This is usually done when a client is needing information about someone’s behavior and the activities that they are taking part in. This is an extremely useful method in gathering evidence and information.
Undercover Operations
The difference between surveillance and undercover operations is the purpose, objectives and function of the investigator. When an investigator is going undercover, they are playing an active role in getting someone to react or behave in a certain way through interaction. When an investigator is in the middle of an undercover operation, they are keeping their identity concealed so that they can achieve what they set out to do. This can be a helpful way to gather information and evidence alongside surveillance.
Countersurveillance
If you feel like someone is watching and monitoring you for some reasons, you can also rely on a PI to help you with countersurveillance tactics. They can help ensure your safety, privacy and commercial interests. Some tools that help in countersurveillance include:
– Sweep: This is done when there is evidence that points to a space being bugged. Bug detectors may be used as the space is inspected thoroughly for any listening devices.
– Phone Tap Detection: This is used to make sure there is no wiretap placed on your phone lines.
– Camera Detection: This works like a bug detection device as it sweeps through the room and looks for any cameras that may be concealed or hidden to gather information about you.
– Scrambler: This can be attached to a phone to make the voice inaudible to anyone that doesn’t have a similar device coded for their end of the line to help them hear a normal voice.
– White Noise Blocker: This is a device that acts like an electromagnetic megaphone to drown out the user’s signal.
