Whether you’re a prominent figure or the victim of unwanted attention, there’s a chance that someone has been spying on your activity. It can be unsettling to think that there may be hidden cameras and listening devices around your home or business, or that your phones might be tapped. If any of the following issues apply to you, you’ll want to call an investigator to look into professional debugging.

Are You Being Bugged?

1. In a Personal Dispute

If you’re in the midst of a personal dispute with a spouse, friend, or neighbor, your property may have been bugged. Some of the most common issues that lead to bugging are divorce or child custody battles, as well as accusations of infidelity. Neighbors and peers sometimes choose this route if they’re looking for information to use against you, especially if you’ve had a falling out recently.

2. Public Figure

From celebrities to politicians, any public figure can be the victim of spying. People with prominent positions are often targeted to gather information, find out secrets, or to disturb their quality of life. If you are a government official or are famous, locally or otherwise, your home or office may be compromised.

3. Business Secrets

Business competitors that are interested in your secrets might bug your company to get them. They may be looking for details about products and services as well as your financial information. Competitors could also try to steal your ideas or could be looking for ways to sabotage you so their company can succeed.

4. Victim of Stalking

Stalkers fixate and obsess over a person, and find ways to insert themselves in their daily lives. In addition to following them and sending unwanted gifts, a stalker may also tap phones or set up hidden cameras so they can track their victims more thoroughly. This also helps them find out more about their habits, like when and where they eat and their schedules for work. Hiring an investigator can help you not only debug your establishment but also find out who’s behind it.

5. Victim of Blackmail or Extortion

If you’re the target of these crimes, the perpetrator could be bugging your home to gather financial documents, daily schedules, private health or family information, and other confidential data to use against you. Much like a stalker case, investigators may be able to help you find the culprit once debugging is done.
