BEHIND A PRIVATE EYE

The world we live in today is not entirely an honest one, for people no longer hold principles or morality in high regard. There are numerous reasons why people need the services of a detective agency.  Corporate and insurance companies require their expertise to uncover cases of fraud and industrial espionage or to track down debtors.

Fraud incidents are on the rise in almost every industry across the country. Being a fast paced economy such as ours, fraud management is an extremely vital issue confronting us today. The threat of fraud remains problematic, no matter the size of the company. The value, type and frequency of fraud vary depending on various factors such as the effectiveness of internal controls, the degree to which responsibilities are devolved and complexity of automated systems and processes. 53% of the respondent companies believe that e-commerce & computer-related fraud will be a source of major concern in the coming years.

• 75 percent of survey respondents state that fraud in corporate India is on the Rise.  E-commerce & Computer-related fraud to be a source of major concern in the coming years

The primary reason for investigating fraud by an employee is to determine exactly who was involved, how much was stolen, and how it was done. An important secondary reason to investigate an internal fraud is to look for ways to improve the company’s fraud prevention controls.

Services provided by private investigation companies-
• carrying out background checks on individuals and companies
• pursuing internal theft in the work place
• investigating drug use in the work place
• Exploring cases of bullying in the work place
• Looking into fraud misrepresentation cases
• Chasing down white collar crime

Organizations requiring pre or post employment investigations, thefts, frauds, data leakage, surveillance, matter related to trust honesty of company people, undercover operations or before signing up business deals with other parties or competitor’ information etc. requires these professionals. Many people think the job is dangerous and that only rough necks are employed in the position. The private investigator is thought to be a person who only follows husbands and wives to check their infidelity. Although there is some truth to all of this, there is much more to private investigation.

In reality private investigators are very talented and experienced professionals. Many are former police officers or ex-military personnel, as such having wide experience in investigation. The most important thing is that a private investigator is not afraid of confrontation. They have to be open and assertive. They have to be patient and observant. Private investigators are hired to investigate everything from insurance claims to criminal cases. There is also a need for private investigation in the world of corporate intelligence.

Corporate private investigators are often hired by major corporations to investigate internal and external activities. Internally employers are often concerned about theft conducted by employee. A good private investigator can assist in investigating the history of an employee, including criminal records and credit problems. They can check data bases and gather vital information off of the web. It is not unusual for a corporate private investigator to go undercover as a corporate employee for catching a white collar criminal.
Corporate private investigators can also be effective in investigating possible business associates and rivals. Private investigation calls for hours of background searching, interviewing and surveillance. A good private investigation team can do all the ground work and back ground search to help ensure a productive relationship. These individuals or teams spend a lot of time in the field and on surveillance activities. They spend hours following others for their clients. They also spend numerous hours on the computer searching for information detrimental to a case.

The bottom line is that a business will often find need for a good private investigation team. There are always back ground checks on employees and business associates that need to be done. The use of private investigation is simply another method of protecting what is yours and ensuring a secure a safe business environment on the road to success.

Pre & Post Employment Verification

The process of carrying out background checks on potential candidates is called Pre-employment verification. It is often done since a company pays a lot to hire & train an employee and a bad decision can make the company lose a lot of money. Often candidates show a false background or education for the sake of job. Here, the role of pre-employment screening comes in. The pre-employment screening services usually include a detailed exploration of public and private records, school, education, criminal history, address history, credit report, etc.

Similarly post-employment screening is as important as pre-employment screening. Regular screening of employees throughout the tenure is imperative for protection of the company’s assets. It is also seen that employees who had started work with an impressive and clean record, after commencement of employment, got involved in illegal activities. While pre-employment screening helps companies in avoiding the risks involved before they hire a new employee, post-employment screening ensures that companies can minimize the risk to which they are exposed over the long term.

A company carrying out pre and post employment screening must prioritize how intensely they wish to apply such checks, as a slight falter could prove to be heavy on the company’s image and/or profits. This is where one can think of handing out this important task to an agency that specializes in investigating and assessing such potential risks.

Matrimonial Verification: Better to Play Safe than be Sorry!

However, a persistent raise in instances of frauds, suicides, dowry cases, etc has altered marriage into a relationship that starts out with eons of doubts and uncertainties.

With the changed scenario, nowadays marriages are mostly being arranged through unfamiliar sources such as websites and newspaper ads.

Servant Verification: A Hassle or a Need…

Now-a-days we frequently come across incidents of domestic helps drugging or even murdering their employers with intent to loot. No wonder our Law states that servant verification is important. However, the only problem is that it is not a law, i.e. it is not mandatory. Even though it is highly recommended, there are many reasons that stop people to follow it. Many families feel awkward telling their servants that they are getting them verified by the police. Moreover, many servants don’t want police to reach their village and harass their families.

It is now essentially important to break obsolete social rules and be one with the law for your own safety. Not only the servants, but labourers, plumbers, chowkidars, electricians and other casual labourers flow into the city in search of employment, and employers keep them without any recommendation or without even knowing them.

Keeping a servant who is native of some far-flung area is even more dangerous, since, if they commit a crime in their employment vicinities and then run back to their native terrains, it becomes quite challenging to trace or arrest them. Therefore it is advisable that the person coming to you for job should be verified with a reputed investigation agency and have a work permit/identity card.

While one can always take help of police for servant verification, people now-a-days prefer detective agencies for verification process as their work is methodical and sculpted as per your requirements. A trusted name in this field is Secret Watch Detectives Pvt. Ltd. that specializes in conducting private employees’ verification.

Secret Watch Detectives Pvt. Ltd. is a leading investigation agency boasting of veterans that have experience of more than a decade.
