A customer called Private Detective Bradford as she was
worried that her home was being bugged.
She claimed her ex-boyfriend had lived with her in the 2 bedroom flat
for about 18 months was now behaving strangely towards her. He seemed to know a
lot about her and her conversations with her friends and family. She had
finished the relationship because he was becoming very possessive with her and
was trying to control her more and more. She finished the relationship over 4
months ago but he would not leave her alone and had tried to ruin her new
relationship.
We advised her that we could sweep her flat to find any bugs
or recording devices and remove them. We told her that we would be sending 2
agents to her home one would be checking for physical bugs and the other would
be checking her telephone and computer. She was delighted and sounded much
calmer by the time we had got off the telephone to her.
We were able to fit her in the next day and she was able to
take a day off work to be there. Our specialist agents arrived at the
designated time and began work immediately. The first items found were covert
cameras and they were found in the living room, bathroom and her bedroom. The
cameras had audio as well as visual so her boyfriend would have been able to
hear everything that she said as well as see her. The computer had some software
on it that could read all her emails and record all her activities. The
telephone had also been bugged with similar software.
At first she was
shocked and then horrified but once it had all been removed and dismantled she
felt relief. It was taking some time for the full extent of what he had been
doing to her to sink in. Our agents comforted her as much as possible and
waited for her friend to arrive before they left.
