How To Conduct Surveillance

Surveillance is gathering any source of evidence for an investigation, or as we like to call it; human intelligence gathering. The (3) three main types of surveillance that private investigators utilize are: surveillance in the vehicle, on foot, and surveillance from remote cameras.  

Before we dive deep into our story on surveillance, we want to ask you a question. Do you know who “Karen” is? Karen is a slang term for a white woman perceived as entitled or demanding beyond the scope of what is normal, this person is usually the one asking to speak with the manager. It’s now a trend on social media; where every entitled person people meet, is referred to as Karen.

So, if you’re a private investigator what do you do when you’re sitting on a public roadway and Karen comes up to you and accuses you of stalking?

Storytime…

In a recent sextortion blog posted by Covert Results, a lot of people got interested and reviewed the blog. We had multiple calls with individuals admitting that sextortion had happened to them. We know this is a problem all across the world, with AI and technology getting a lot better. People have to be more cautious about what kind of information they’re putting out on the internet.

What’s Your Plan?

Super Bowl LVII is nearing, where the Philadelphia Eagles are going to face the Kansas City Chiefs. This is going to be a great match up! These two teams have been planning all year — they play regular season games, play and win play off games and now only two are left for the Super Bowl, the grand finale! 

If you’re a business owner and you’re not feeling prepared, you should plan ahead just like a professional team. Do better; plan better, and prepare with armed security. Planning ahead includes: taking a look at your security budget and potentially hiring armed security for your event, venue, building, business, or personal protection.

Drugs or Children?

According to the National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics (NCDAS), almost 32 million people (11.7% of the population) were actively using drugs as of 2021, with marijuana, prescription stimulants, and methamphetamines as the most popular drugs of choice. 

The US drug market on average spends over $100 billion annually on drugs.

In another study, funded by the National Institutes of Health, it’s found that 10% of US adults have had a drug use disorder at some point in their lives.
