- Come with a real private investigator on an infidelity case! Have you ever wondered how a Private investigator conducts business? Watch as a real PI takes you from start to finish conducting a surveillance investigation on a cheating spouse. You're riding shotgun during the investigation! Ever wanted to learn how to become a private investigator? Every wondered if you'd like the job? Well, this video will give you first hand experience by one of the best in the business.
Best Dodge commercial I've ever seen!
Call it strange, call it an invasion of privacy, I call it saving 1,000s of dollars in the divorce. If you have proof of a cheating partner its a much easier process.
Are they good enough to be private investigator
Been PI 21 years. We normally would of followed in if not, odds are high they would come out together
How would you go about remaining incognito?
also if they dont come out together, youll have recording of every face coming out of the building for up to hours after the target leaves.
I would have done the same Rob. In terms of how to remain incognito there is no need. He had buffer cars. The set up is questionable but I don’t believe she would have noticed anything. He could have pretended to be on the phone, spoken to reception about prices, so many options.
Earned a degree in private investigations with a 4.0 QPA. For any aspiring detectives, there are many fields to work in. I personally didn't care much for infidelity. I wanted to investigate crime so I'm working towards becoming the director of undercover loss prevention (store detective) for a major retailer. Going undercover to bust fraud, organized retail crime, internal theft, and identity theft. But there are MANY fields for private detectives. Infidelity, background checks, loss prevention, missing persons, government contracts etc. Heck, even mystery shopping is pretty good for extra cash.
I work as a Private Investigator to and I will second that Infidelity cases SUCK. They will get you paid but man are they painful to work. I landed in digital forensics myself. Check out my channel and drop a subscribe if you are interested
Do you have to have a degree in it? Can you actually start doing this if you have natural special skill at deducing scenarios?
You're a glorified lost prevention employee lol. Having fun watching security cameras all day?
Where do you get the Degree?? On Line?? I'll like to get the same in Florida
ur car looks like a cop car. Bad move for a PI
It doesn't, it's just a normal dodge charger which is just well known to be a police vehicle.
An obvious cop car would be a CVPI with spotlights with a ram bar.
All American brand sedans are potential unmarked police cars
Energizer and very dark tinted windows
This may not be a glorious job and maybe some P.I's may not realize it but stuff like this inspires people like me. This seems like my dream job. I never grew up on spy movies or anything so was never really fond of the whole "undercover, rogue agent" idea that a lot of people seem to get. I hope I can pursue this one day.
P.S the police here in Canada use black Dodge chargers and Rams as undercover vehicles, in fact it's so common in the province of Ontario that Everytime I see a black Dodge charger with tinted windows I automatically assume it's a cop hahahaha, just a friendly tip if you ever have to follow a Canadian, be extra cautious. Keep up the good work!
BrunoHatesUno i know me too! I wanna do this!
Thanks, Bruno...yeah its a good job but it takes a lot of patience. I've had cases where I sat for hours with no movement and others where I found myself on the roof of a house filming through the skylight....all legal of course. Good luck.
I’m only a freshman in high school and I have to say this job looks like fun.
Haha, yeah...its fun when you do it right...not fun when you get burned, and we get burned from time to time!
Its not fun sitting in a car for upto 8 hours. Especially if it's hot 👎
“I thinks the clients gonna be happy”… do you though?…. 😂
Yeah, that was probably the wrong choice of words...I should've said 'satisfied with my results' as opposed to "happy". Thanks for watching, though!
Id recommend buying a hat and shades. If you're up to put in about $25 I'd say buy a Uber sign or a Uber hat and wear those it'll make you more inconspicuous
Another cheating woman who will divorce her husband and take half his stuff and keep his kids. Wonderful.
I know the court system is fcked for men. However when a spouse is caught cheating and evidence is provided, alimony can be heavily reduced sometimes. Can't say the same about all the men's property though :(
Hence hire the PI...
@a a its the kids child support that has the most weight usually and he has to pay whether she cheats or not
Special word or the day "Prenuptial Agreement" then if she cheats she gets nothing. Just remember to put a clause in it that stipulates that if she commits adultery then she is entitled to 0% of the estate.
Ya look like a cop, and the sunglasses DEFF make ya look like a cop lol.
Thanks Andrew....I love those sunglasses!
I took a break from option trading and came across your video, man this is awesome! Can watch this all day long!!
Thank you, Hunter!
Nice license plate brother let that light shine!
Haha, thank you, brother. Past Master 2016-17!
I'm going into my courses for Private Investigation and this video was actually really helpful! Thank you for posting this!
Your welcome, Josh! Good luck!!
Have you ever thought of using a Car that looks like a Taxi? I drove one years ago and nobody even Police would take a second look.
I’m starting to watch these things too much. I’d love to be a private investigator as a side job 😂
Great video. Especially being that all the other videos on UA-cam are some fake bs crap. Good work man
Thank you, Bama!! Really appreciate your encouragement, it seems a lot of people have only negative comments to offer.
Suburban Security Services You’re more than welcome bud. And sadly, we’re gonna have folks like that. Don’t worry about them! 👍🏼
I agree, but war eagle 😉
@@SuburbanSecurityServices the negative people are probably guilty of something themselves and don't want to be caught. That's my thought anyway.
I never use my turn signals when following people. Especially if I am directly behind the subject. Too many people especially in insurance and disability cases will put on directionals and not turn and they look back to see if you put your turn signal on.
Very true! Thanks, Ryan!
Get your windows tinted. A sunshade for the windshield is useful when parked and getting photos.
Thank you, Tony! Yes very good advice!
so if laws in your state wont let you have tinted windows you just got to be careful and not record when shes looking? also when your first starting, say as insurance fraud investigator, will they send you somewhere to train? or is it trial and error on your own.
I keep seeing people asking "how do I become a PI" the answer to that is it depends on the state you live in OR what state you want to be licensed in. Some states require a certain amount of verified work hours investigating in some way other states you do NOT need ANY experience just money. Some states you can be licensed and not live in that state. Example I live in New Jersey but am also licensed in Arizona because you DO NOT need a physical address in Arizona. Every state is different.
I am in NJ as well and want to be a PI. Is there anything you can tell me that could help?
I don't need a breakdown of how, but if you've learned anything of value that would help a newbie, I would love and appreciate to know!
What if you James Bond her and make her fall for you then tell the client lol ?
Not likely!
This is like unintentional ASMR
I working a couple of infidelity cases right now. I'm not a fan of this type of mobile surveillance whatsoever. It's good to get the experience, but long term, I'll have to pass. I'm coming from loss prevention, which was cool too but became repetitive, but polygraph examination, background checks, or any type of skip tracing is something that I want to get into.
Yeah, infidelity is always a starting point for the newbie. I rarely do them anymore...but they're good money of you're selective on the type of cases and clients you choose to work for.
Polygraph tests don't work
I agree, they are primarily used to elicit confessions.
if you're hiring a stranger to investigate your spouse your marriage is a lost cause
handy to gather evidence for a divorce
I thought if u do this and catch her in act she doesnt get shit... and a divorce gets pushed
@@Jessehernandez83016 oh didn't know. justifies spending money on a pi then
Is all about $$$ at that point
It could be used as evidence to get a divorce
Follow her in keep your distance, find the room. Once she leaves the room knock on the same door and say you’re the manager and had a call about the HVAC not working in that room
It is a dream of mine being in this line of work and I will make it happen.
Good luck! In the US there only 125,000 private investigators. And the business is usually hit or miss from what I hear. Lots of failing PI businesses sadly.
same
Same here , I am in College right now for my criminal justice major and I’m trying to get my degree so I can get into private law-enforcement as a private detective. You should go over to my UA-cam channel I will have a video on how to get into private law-enforcement and be a private detective
Have any of you guys become one yet? I want to be a private investigator too
What's the word, Gabe?
Your videos are very soothing.
Haha, thanks Lucas!!
Ooh.. interesting.
I would really like to become a private investigator when I’m older.
Same I'm really desperate
how long was the client in the hotel for and what was the gap between other people entering the hotel?
Hey how does this works. A guy I know ask me if I wanted to do survaliance . He has a company and stuff. So he said it's pretty easy , you have to just take pics and video and will pay 20 bucks an hour. Is that how this personal company works , hire just newbies and ask them to go and get evidence . Does that seem common on how this works
Yes, that's exactly how it works! When I started (in the 90's) I was expected to purchase my own camera (Sony handycam for about $99) and have a reliable car with insurance. I was given my assignments and told "hit the street". its fun when you're 20 and nothing much to lose. I'd say go for it! You'll have fun!
If my wife is going to a hotel.. there's only one thing a married wife is going to the hotel for and it's not bacon and eggs
No shit, only their waffles are good
I have just started out as a private detective and as of today i have my very first case cant fucking wait 👍👍👍
Good luck...and stick with it. Like anything else, you'll have tough days, but in the end its a lot of fun if you work at perfecting the skill. Thanks for watching!
How do you become one? Do you need law enforcement experience or what?
I work as a PI and I got a couple questions. Do you think it’s abnormal for someone having an affair to be aware of who’s around her? Because I saw what you saw and she never really looked at you. She was just possibly aware of her surroundings.
Two: Why didn’t you follow her in a few moments after. She could have been sitting in the lobby waiting for her friend and you could have just sat there having a fake phone call until you confirmed the person which would have sealed the deal. Or you could of overheard her booking the room, etc...
Great vid! I am fellow mass resident. What is being a private investigator like here? What are the steps that need to be taken? I am in college for a BS in psychology and I am looking around at different careers that interest me.
Hey Mike, thanks for watching. My advice is to apply to a local PI company as a surveillance operative and see if you like it. Its long, irregular hours but worthwhile if you become good at it. Its a good job for someone right out of school who doesn't mind being put in awkward situations. You have to learn to think on your feet, but like anything else gets easier the more you do it. Good luck!
Your wife and a hotel and it was just an example of how to start off a tail and see if anything happens and where that person ends up and or if the other party is there as well if not then your done with the beginning stage later on mid stage starts and after that the final results to make your case. Right?
Work 2 up and send the other investigator in. you then look like you are dropping someone off at the hotel. They then have eyes on her inside and if they get close to her they might over hear the room number of see who they meet up with. Forget telling me the client wont pay for the price for more people, if it gets the results in one hit and not over 4 or 5 days its cheaper in the end. For all you know she is meeting a female friend who works there. Its not the investigators job to assume, its to get the facts. As for setting up the trigger, park a second car with a live camera at the house, then plot up out of sight of the targets house and watch remotely. A car sign written as "home cleaners services" will be over looked by third party watchers. If you put a mobile number on it, they will call you to say they see one of your cars in their street. You can then say yes one of the neighbours is a client but you will know that you are being watched.
You should be in a panel van where you can add different service business logos with magnetic vinyl door signs... johnnys house painting, Lous plumbing....It’s much better cover than a dude in a black Dodge. If you were sitting in front of my house for more than 20 mins. looking suspect me & my Sig would be coming to see what you were up to. 🤙🏼
Good idea
Truuuuu Ive been tailed this year the crzy part we have construction 🚧 on site with many of those trucks
Most people are not paranoid enough to be thinking they are being investigated. I do like the panel van Idea though just for the practicability.
and then you would end up getting shot or going to jail for pulling a gun on someone sitting in a car
Always have a full tank of gas, they may be leaving and not coming back....but you'll have to stop at the state line, unless you're in Texas, and they're heading to the other side of the state LOL... you could also go in behind her in the hotel and just ask questions about random stuff like booking a party, wedding, etc....keep your camera on in her direction and where any audio can be heard, and if she meets up with someone or you see which direction she goes, follow her lead or get on the elevator and go to the same floor, something to that effect if you don't see her actually meet a person, like if they are already in the room.
Good advice, thanks Crystal!
Could have called front desk as she checked in to eavesdrop on the other clerks conversation.
Long shot with phone technology
I actually went in a motel shortly afterward on one similar. I acted like I had acted like I TOO was supposed to be meeting someone. I then went on the elevator with them acting like going to the same floor, I got off and start taking on my phone like " ok I'm off the elevator which way darling" I get an idea of what room they went into then I documented that and left and watched the car as she got in and left. The front desk wouldn't tell me who was in the room but did say it was a male in his thirties. My client was thrilled and even spotted me a bonus. He went there the next week and actually caught her
Question: If I am looking for a PI, should I go through an attorney or is it safe to find a reputable one with a google search?
Yeah, attorneys always have a good list of PI's they use...so ask your attorney for recommendations, but always vet them yourself! Talk to the PI , ask a lot of questions and get a feel for the investigator. You can tell a lot from his/her responses...are they trying to give you the hard sell? or are they really trying to figure out how they can help. If all they're doing is asking for your credit card number, look elsewhere. I wrote about this very topic in my book Protect Yourself. Check it out!
How do u get the case
I'm looking to get into this type of work what do I need to start up? Also anything you recommend to start getting experience or any steps you can show me? Really interests me but I'm sure if I was doing this kind of work It would be more than cheating spouses
My only advice is to read as much as you can about the subject or take a intro training class. Watch my other video about what to read, and you can link right to amazon to buy the books. Also, check out investigativeacademy.com/ they have a bunch of training classes, many of which are required depending on your state to be licensed. I don't work many cheating spouse cases anymore, luckily I've been able to branch into many other types of investigations, but if your just starting out you'll have to work these cases to learn surveillance. Good luck my friend!
What? No room service disguise and knocking on her door with a mini concealed camera mounted on your name tag and seeing who answers the door while getting a good look inside? What is this?
Yessss. If you're not a detective already then you definitely missed your calling 👌
This is what I would've done, its a shame 😔
How were you hired as a private investigator? What education do you have?
You don't need any education man you just gotta know what to do
Doesn't really matter about education. A buddy of mine became a pi a couple of months ago. he pretty much rides with an experienced pi that shows him the ropes. After that he does what this guy did. Follow his target around and try not to get caught.
It’s only a high school diploma
As a private investigator myself most states require a bachelors and or experience under someone elses licensee. In New York where I am at you need three years full-time experience before you qualify to take the exam.
@@1CRAZYASSASSIN1 awesome! i want to.
How do I 🛑 my ex husband a P.I., p/t Detective, retired cop from stalking, harassing, cyber stalking me since 2005???
I'm the owner of a PI company in Norway. I don't know where you live, but here we would document the stalking, harassment and cyber stalking. We would gather the evidence you already have, get new evidence if possible and write a report as well as a police report. The police would get a digital file with our report, the police report and all the evidence. The evidence would be organized. Basically we do all the work for the police, so they don't need to do anything other than use their authority to do what they can or bring the case to court. You can send an e-mail to kontakt@norspes.no if you need any help, we have contacts in most countries.
@@Titan-fo9wv that's pretty cool, can I ask what you look for when hiring someone?
Uber drivers use dash cams and their own cars and you could have a paper bag and literally run in the hotel, it's your time and money and follower anywhere you want. It's too easy peasy.
You don't have to go to the desk, you have the name and room number and it's private if they ask you from the desk, hurry up she's gettin' away.
I was about to mention the same, my husband actually is a delivery driver for several apps, I was wondering if that could work while watching, carrying in some fast food into the lobby, drivers always have their phones out anyways too, some apps require photos of leaving food, you could be recording thw whole time but maybe thats too close for comfort.
Fun video.
If someone is acting in an obsessive matter would you consider them creditable?
Depends on what you mean by "obsessive". Over the years I've learned how to read people to test their credibility. Its something that really cant be taught and only learned through experience.
I would say in hotels act like a skip/Ubereats delivery guy and knock directly in the same apartment or be in same elevator, if youre good at following thats the first and last time thell probably see you.
Hired as a PI here in Fort Worth 5 days ago. Already had some action, this will be some interesting work.
Good luck, Delta! It can be a lot of fun…never stop learning!
Do you get noticed a lot? I feel like that car stands out more. My wife used a 2020 Gray Nissan Rogue for her surveillance vehicle. You see those at every other stop light.
Have you considered going into the lobby before her? You would then have her room number when she checks in and could post up somewhere in the vicinity of her room.
i mean you can't really do that as the hotel staff would get suspicious if you dont get a room and just kinda sit there and try and listen in, which could potentially ruin the whole job, unless you get a room which would increase the cost of the job.
Curious aspiring PI, how did you go about applying with this agency? Really think it's something I'd be interested in doing as a career
We'd love to have you, Hampton! but not recruiting right now...stay posted!
Okay I will be graduating with my CJ degree in December and this is the field of work I want to get in ...what steps should I take to get there ??
Ashworth College has a GREAT online course for PI and it's a really low cost and very good. You learn ay your own pace
Why don't you tint your windows ??
I usually don't use this car for surveillance...but they're tinted now...I went with 20%, 5% was too dark!
The next video is them on Maury saying he is not the father and here is why
Haha!
Can the "bugs" that people put on the cars of others also tell them the location they went to as specifically as you can tell by being there in person? I don't know anything about the gps equipment but could the husband have just placed on in the wheel well of the car and also found out she went to this specific hotel from that device?
Yeah, it depends on the device. There are "active" devices that offer real time reporting and "passive" devices that just record information and the unit needs to be plugged back into a computer to identify where its been. Unfortunately, just by looking at the device there is no way with any degree of accuracy which type it is. Also, the active devices can have a 3 second delay all the way to a 15 minute delay. Again there's no way to know what type of service the subscriber has on the device just by looking at it. Some states have strict laws pertaining to tracking devices, so if one believes the spouse has put one on your car, I'd consult with an attorney or the police. I don't use these devices just for this reason. Thanks for the question.
Make sure your name is on the title
Nice. Gotta say Raymond Chandler made it seem a bit more glamorous.
I agree!
are you allowed to have tinted windows??
Yes! In Massachusetts licensed PI's are exempt from the tint law which is 35%. Thanks for watching!
A real life Joe Mannix! Looks like a fun job!
Thanks, Swordmaster!!
I was a South Australian State Licensed Private Investigator (and Security Specialist) for 18 Years.
Counter Surveillance was alway My particular delight.
I was taught Surveillance Techniques in 1999 by the Australian Academy of Law and Investigations, whilst I was studying for My Certificate in Law Enforcement, but I had previously been taught Counter Surveillance Techniques in 1983, by the Australian Department of Defence and the Australian Security Intelligence Organisation.
And whilst other areas of Investigation and Security Consulting were interesting, conducting Counter Surveillance Operations (undetected) was always much more Challenging and Enjoyable from My perspective.
1. Follow the Client without being detected by the Tail or the Surveillance Team who are suspected to be following the Client.
2. Identify the Tail or the Surveillance Team, without Myself being compromised.
3. Confirm that a Tail or Surveillance Team are in fact, conducting a Surveillance Operation on the Client.
4. Identify the Origins of the Tail or of the Surveillance Team, through Surveillance and Investigation of the Tail or a Member of the Surveillance Team.
5. Decide upon a Course of Action, which might involve making Myself Professionally known to the Individual or Organisation responsible for the Surveillance in one of several ways; some serious, some funny.
6. Decide upon what to tell the Client and this might even involve Lying to them about the Result of My Investigation.
A question...if the wife had discovered you, and told you to stop stalking her. Would you have to stop by law?...Keep in mind, my own view is PI's are just paid stalkers. So I am pretty biased
in that case you back off BUT don't say anything and tell the client you were busted and what they want to do next
Herlock sholmes back at it again
As someone who used to be a Probation Officer and Social Worker? Would my experience carry over well?
Hey Blankbox! I think so...in those professions you need patience and understanding! Definitely something you need as a PI. Oftentimes people who want to be in law enforcement try to do PI work, but they're consumed with learning enforcement as opposed to helping people...which is the backbone of social work. So I think it would be a good fit for you. Thanks for watching!
Well I don’t think the client will be happy. But I get your drift
I think "satisfied" might have been a better word to use. Thanks for watching!!
@@SuburbanSecurityServices Nice video man. I subbed you.
Thank you!!
Question: is a PI limited by jurisdiction? For example, can a PI licensed in Va operate in Washington, DC? Is it common for a PI to investigate/assist in murder cases?
Some states have a reciprocity law where a neighboring state will honor a license, however you have to research each state laws to find out for sure. For example, I have a Mass license and can conduct simple interviews or locate investigations in Rhode Island. However, I can not conduct certain types of investigations like missing persons or stolen property investigations. This is written right into RI's private detective law. With that said, I do not believe RI investigators can conduct any types of investigations in Massachusetts without a license, but don't quote me on that.
I’m about to enter this line of work, do you have any suggestions on the type of cars good for P.I.’s to use? Color etc?
I would have a couple of vehicles or access thru a rental company. One good thing is an old beat-up work van. they tend to be less suspicious. It depends on the area of surveillance, a nice fancy car would look out of place in a run-down area whereas a beat-up car would look out of place in a fancy community. At a motel a vehicle with out of state tags is good
You say the word “CAH” a lot to refer to motor vehicles. 😏 I knew it was the suburbs of Boston by the accent & neighborhoods. Yes, those types of homes are ridiculous to “blend in”. (Before you said Franklin & 495). 🤗 Can I come on a ride-along? I’m kinda local.
Hey Krissy! You hit the nail on the head...suburbs of Boston! I've never really done a ride-along, but I train new-hires personally...maybe you'll work for Suburban someday and we'll work together on a case!
I'd park further away, maybe behind a parked car without tint. Good video though.
Thank you, brother!
Are you in NC? I'm thinking of being a P.I., I need 3 years of experience since I live in NC, I could work under you
I just happen to search for this type of stuff lol wow I didnt know its real lol
I dabble in a lil surveillance and Counter surveillance ;) this is cool though
Just curious, couldn't you tag her car with a GPS tracker or does that add a whole other legal issue into it?
Yeah, you could do that, but it opens up a whole legal can of worms. Most states have enacted laws to protect people from electronic surveillance, but there are circumstances when they can be used. In this case it wasn't really necessary. Thanks for watching!
Fascinating to see a private investigator at work on an infidelity case. What skills do you think are most crucial for success in this line of work?
i enjoyed this...jesus you sound more suspicious of her, than she presumably is that someone may be monitoring her
Thanks, Shane!
I'm only a qtr of the way in of the video but what happens if you get "made"? Do you not charge the client for that day or week? Is the case busted?
All depends, if I get burned or "made" i usually throw in the towel for the day and try again another day. I usually bill the client for the time worked up until that point unless I have an arrangement already agree upon, like a flat rate or something like that. Thanks for the comment!
Call the hotel. Tell them you're from the corporate office and your database crashed...and you need the info from the last few check ins.
Ivan watt that kind of pretext would have worked and I probably would have come up with something to get the room number to. Yes that doesn’t really help you but the client would be so happy to have the extra detail.
That's illegal af
Is it true that PI’s can gain access to your passwords on social media? If this is possible, how would they do that? I’m asking because I left my abuser one year ago & I got a call on my cell several times & then called the number back when a gentleman said he never called. I put that number into cashapp and got a name. I googled the name which is a PI in my county. I’m afraid my abuser is tracking me down with a PI. I’m terrified. I have a fake Facebook account so that I can see what old friends and family are up to & noticed the PI suddenly was Facebook friends with 2 people that I was Facebook friends with (even though it is a fake name & fake pictures). Am I just paranoid?
Pi’s operate within the law so gaining access to accounts like that is illegal so its something they wouldn’t do, if you can find that pi call them and explain the situation
Not true
I want to become a investigator it's it better in your opinion to be a private investigator rather than just a investigator
The two options are either private investigator or police investigator/detective. If you want to go straight into investigating then PI is the only option as in order to become a police detective you must first do patrol work for 3-5 years. It really depends on the type of work you want to deal with PI's deal with mostly civil work cheating spouses, fraud etc. where as detectives deal with crimes, so death, sexual assault. If you are interested in working for the police then I would say go for it its better pay better benefits and more exciting cases. But it is a lot more work and a lot more stress. Im a PI if you have any more questions feel free to ask.
Get a state license... Each state different... Better to start on a team of investigators... Is good work for women!! Many PI firms do training... Lot of great women PI's out there!
.... oh, Private Investigator definitely better... I had an experience, the city detectives were very limited in what they could do... won't pay well either.
Have you become one yet?
Seems like a fun job and good pay but I’m having a hard time deciding if I want to ruin people lives who are just red pill
Yeah...you can't think of it as "ruining" people lives...its a service that is provided for people who need help! That's how I try to think of it, I can't force people to cheat on their spouses, but I can sure help the spouse when they do!
I guess you’re right, if I were to become one I would prosecute those who are harming others directly or anything that is completely morally wrong
This is NY LI, 😂 i always wanted to know if PIs actually have work, especially on Long Island. Seems like most divorces here happen real quite, and everyone stays wealthy 😂 i always wanted to do PI work I just never knew how or how to get started.. 😢
You said u'd wait for her to come out - but never showed any footage of that!
Hi Al, yeah...in this case I checked in with the client and we decided to put a cap on the wait time. Thus, I was called off before she came out at the clients request. I don't know this for sure, but my guess is he decided to wait himself.
Bro use a dash cam as well
Dash cam can ruin the cover lol
Couldn't you walk in and ask the hotel desk person which room she's in, and tell them that you're a PI? It is that maybe against the rules? Not sure
I’m a private investigator. There are methods of doing that. But I would never tell anyone I’m an investigator while working a case. The hotel staff could possibly tip off the subject.
Yelekaw The hotel staff cannot give out room numbers to random people. Being a PI is not the same as being a police officer.
Could be one of the worse things to do. #1 The Hotel policy is not to give out personal infomation of it's customers. part of that in many Hotels your required to sign in Which is a contract Which money has been traded for services Any infomation given outside of the company is a breach of contract IE Credit card info, Name, Room number.
#2 What would you gain from knowing which room she was in..The door would be closed (unable to see anything) Anything you heard/recorded is "heresay" in a court of law Your on private property (keep in mind you must pass a front desk) And are not a customer of the property Theirfor if caught Your tresspassing..Unlike a mall to the public with a reason to buy varies of items
PI's do not have law enforcement powers
I doubt they would tell you. And very likely will tell her you were there on her way out
@@livingonadollar2882 Your not working for the courts, your working for the client... So hearsay only applies if the client decided to take her to court and play the recordings. If the client got them on recording saying "dirty" things or better yet doing the nasty; he wont care about hearsay.
Over all a very poor video of surveillance. Not bashing the investigator. If it works for him Then job done.
But as Shall we say the every day joe on the steet watching this video And had a small feeling during a case a PI was maybe in the works..
Newer cars. tinted windows, eye contact, Breaks contact quickly, in car movement...In 2017 when this video was made you had the ablity to get mini dash cams As a back up to the gaps of not being able to hold a zoom cam when a target is facing toward you. The dodge is another heads up to the idea of law inforcement. casual office wear Another questionable idea to someone else. My choices : A U-Haul van. Older car And Kick in some dents A few stickers on it. Motorcycle Your hulmult has a recording cam You can also have a mini display And zoom option on your secured phone on your bike...Clothing It's not to blend in with a target's level I.E. She's driving a newer high end imported car Dresses in brand name office wear. You would be a somewhat equal to her. So if you caught her eye ..Maybe as a cute guy it would imprint in her memory Maybe even raise a brow on why your there...... Old car/uhaul Your wearing a construction outfit Dusty/dirty/Paint worn out jeans T-shirt. Duffle bag that is stained Has chalking on it even bits of concrete on it Strap a tool ontop....But have a cut out for a very good cam..Get out of the car Throw the bag on the hood Aim the end at the client Use your phone as the display When she looks over it look like you dailing a number Or face 100% the other way..Your not bound in your car...Having said outfit would set you outside her world Your no longer a equal Or look like a threat
Peter Griffin (famliy guy cartoon) Said it best while wearing a clown suit Walking behind uniformed soldiers in Vietnam : Your all stupid See thier all going to be looking for army guys
Need a pi in the worcester area
rent a work van and dress like a worker if anyone should question you just tell them either you are waiting for your supervisor or the rest of your crew
Love it! Good tip, James!
I'| actually curious about this for field work. I can't find anything explicitly against playing dress-up so long as there was no covert (or overt) tresspassing going on.
Or explicitily impersonating an individual to S.E. non-public information.
you could have gone into the lobby posing as a guest and listen to what she says to the front desk clerk, even record it. why just wait in the car? likely that wasn't even a real job, just a friend posing as a cheating wife. if it had been real, you'd have done more.
Thanks for watching!
She more than likely didn't even stop at desk and already had room #.
There is no way I would sit for any length of time in that neighborhood waiting for her to leave. Simply put a GPS on her car the nite before or give to husband to put in car. Shit I have one for my dog! Works to half mile! . This way your not a turd in a punch bowl!! I've spent many years busting professional shopifting rings. Loved it
Stack Fire not sure thats legal. And if you give the tracker to the husband, whats he paying you for?
can you say the word, illegal? lol get real man
That’s why it’s called a surveillance, you get paid to sit and wait so what does it matter, that’s a big part of the job Ace
It's actually illegal to put a GPS on a vehicle without the owner of the vehicle's consent. Even for law enforcement........such is life..and that's why PI's have a job.
@@6string42 Yup. Plus, if the client goes to court they will want a testimony
How long did it take to become one
I guess it depends on many different factors, like where you want to be licensed and how much work you're willing to put in. But I think its worth it.
Suburban Security Services you’re a good man. Appreciate your advice all the way!
Maybe go covert and follow her in? Or go in before her with covert setup and wait so you look less suspicious
I agree with you Pitt SkyView 100%
How is your agency doing on cyber intelligence gathering? Is that a service you offer your clients?
No, don't provide any of that...not yet anyway. Always open to new sources of income though!
U can place tracker.
Yeah, the law is constantly changing on the state level regarding using technology to track someone's movements. In some cases its permissible, but in others its safer to do it this way. Thanks for watching!
I am not sure trying to do my own investigation
I am gonna reinstate my license want to get back into the job.
I’m sure red lights aren’t your friend
Nope!
@@SuburbanSecurityServices the whole time I was like man that red light gonna catch em. Never did tho lol
Haha...yeah, sometimes I get lucky!
@@SuburbanSecurityServices stay safe my friend. Love the video
how much do you charge
$200/day plus expenses.
get bent gimme dat gold firebird..
Are you from east Boston?
No, but my dad was!
@@SuburbanSecurityServices nice my family is from eastie, small world.
Did he think it was enough?
It was enough to confirm his suspicions. Last I heard he was separated from her. Always tough to deliver that video evidence but frustrating because I somewhat feel responsible for breaking them up. Oh well!
@@SuburbanSecurityServices you're doing your job as long as you are truthful with your discoveries then you are not responsible.
So no more videos?
Hey Jean, I posted a couple more videos, thanks for watching!
