In modern times, the internet can provide invaluable publicly available information about others that our social media private investigator at our private detective agency can access. Our clients include attorneys, educational institutions, employers, landlords/property owners, people wanting to investigate potential lovers, and more. The owners of our private investigation agency have put together some of the most common uses for these types of digital private investigations, which come from the number of requests they receive each year from our client base that requests them. These top five areas where people seek to hire a private eye to scour the internet and other social media websites include, but are not limited to, the following:

Child Custody Private Investigations:
Child custody disputes can get brutal. Bickering parents, especially when one or both is doing atrocious things or even committing rape or murder, can cause extended legal battles in the courtroom and other venues. When this happens, our legal firm gets flooded with calls for help. Child custody private investigations are the most common reasons we receive requests for this type of service.
When we receive orders for this, one of the parents or extended family members has contacted us, asking our legal staff to find the detrimental “dirt” on the other parent or guardian that they can then use in court against the other party to try to secure full child custody, child support payments, or even half custody when none currently exists. These social media scans are often coupled together with surveillance private investigations, which involves following the person of interest (POI) around to see where they go, complementing the data we can pull from online.
Infidelity Investigations:
While adultery private investigations often include surveillance to see if the other spouse or lover is secretly meeting up with mistresses or other secret partners, many people also choose to locate a private detective to help them uncover an unfaithful spouse’s online activity as well. By going online and doing a deep dive into a person’s social media, internet dating, and sex sites, etc., our team can help our clients get a better idea of the other lover’s online habits and activities. If nefarious activity is occurring which suggests cheating or which shows suspicious relationships between the spouse and another “friend” online, our social media scan private investigator can help uncover it and will immediately alert our clients about the suspicious activity.
Criminal Private Investigations:
By the time our clients who are crime victims come to us complaining about a perpetrator who has committed some crimes against them, their friend, and/or family member, this is not the first criminal act the individual has occurred. Where there is smoke, there is often fire, and by the time most private investigators in El Reno and law enforcement officials catch criminals in the act, it is rarely their first bad act. Thus, nationwide criminal and civil background checks and social media scans are the perfect way to perform due diligence private investigations to help peer into a person’s online activity and find other misdeeds.
By going online, our PIs can often pull up news stories about the individual which might show other criminal activity and subsequent allegations. Additionally, other crime victims might have also spoken out against the same person, filing civil lawsuits, making comments and posts, and more across the internet. When this happens, it leaves a digital footprint that provides a paper trail of useful evidence in locating the perpetrators and helping us bring them to justice for you. When you find a private detective at our PI agency to help you locate it, we will do our upmost best to bring it to light for you.
Stalker Private Investigations:
While stalking is a crime that would fall under the “criminal private investigations” section above, we have put it into a separate category because many of our PI clients deal with it at the civil level via victim protection orders (VPOs). Much like with criminal private investigations where our legal staff run social media scans on suspects, stalkers often have multiple victims and dark, seedy, dysfunctional pasts and skeletons in their closet they may not want everyone to know about, but which need our legal professionals to bring it to light.
We can help discover who stalkers are by running skip traces on their names, phone numbers, e-mail addresses, and residential addresses. Our team can also run their license plates, conduct civil and criminal background checks, and can perform countersurveillance on them to turn the tables on them and legally stalk them instead. Indeed, we have a variety of ways to help combat unhealthy hyperfixations, and we also have experience in mental health disorders like autism, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, paranoid schizophrenia disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and others, which can sometimes contribute to these stalking behaviors.
New Employee Private Investigations:
Sometimes employers have concerns about their employees siphoning off their company’s clients to other businesses or new corporate startups their employers are planning. Other business owners suspect embezzlement, fraud, or even employees who are not working like they are supposed to and being where they say they are. Surveillance investigations, criminal background checks, social media scans, and our polygraph tests can all help determine the truth and can help get hard evidence about an employee’s behavior and other activities.
Though the owners of our private detective agency in Oklahoma City receive fewer requests for these types of due diligence private investigations than those for child custody, cheating spouses, and other criminal activity, we still get plenty of requests each year for employee investigations. We bring peace of mind to company owners and the heads of human resource departments who are going especially difficult times and turmoil in their businesses.
New Student Private Investigations:
Whenever schools like colleges, universities, and even elite, private K-12 educational institutions begin to recruit new students to attend, study, and represent their school, some of them hire a private investigator to do thorough due diligence on their future academicians. If they fail to review previous academic transcripts, conduct interviews, review letters of recommendation, run civil and criminal background checks, and have our legal professionals run social media scans on potential students, the chance that they will accidentally admit unruly miscreants and other criminals into their colleges, universities, and other academic institutions increases.
To avoid this, wise academic committees and admissions departments at these schools will do those things we mentioned above. They know that by making a small investment of time and money upfront, they will end up with a better quality of pupils at their schools who can contribute better to their academic community in a positive manner. They want the types of scholars who will help promote the growth of their classmates and school staff, as well as add to the prestige of their educational institution.
As you can see, there are numerous circumstances for which our unfaithful spouse private investigators can help clients utilize social media scans to help find all kinds of useful information about these individuals. Indeed, there are also other types of investigations that our legal team can also assist with by doing digital private investigations for our clients. If you or someone you know needs help in this way, please do not hesitate to contact the owners of our private investigation agency for more information.
