Private Detective in Ukrainian


Photo: For the "half" need eyes and eyes


MPs propose to legalize the country's private detective
Domestic Sherlock Holmes now work almost regardless of the legal field. Their activities are poised on the brink: that is not prohibited is allowed. Yes, and they themselves seem to exist, but not quite. For the majority of Ukrainian private detective agencies registered as mass media (mass media). But now, private detectives offered to withdraw from the shadows into the light.

Detectives are driven into the framework
We can not say that the detective agency in Ukraine are very much underground work.
- Ukrainian law is no law that would regulate the activities of private detectives. But their absence does not mean that such activity is prohibited. Out of the law is part of the services provided by private detectives, for example, play facilities, organization of video surveillance - the lawyer explains Igor Malovsky.
On April 12 the Parliament have submitted a draft Law of Ukraine "On Private Detective (Investigation) activities", which proposes to do the work of private detectives was legal. It offers quite a wide range of opportunities for private detectives and even allows the use of videotape and audiotape. But prohibits collecting information about his personal life, religious and political beliefs.
It is not that detectives eagerly waiting to start their activities to regulate. On the one hand, full and legal work of their agencies - are taxes and jobs. On the other, it is clear limits, in which detectives will have to act. If the bill passes, it will be in charge of Internal Affairs, and go unnoticed for "face" will not succeed - unscrupulous detective called to account.
However, the author of the bill, lawmaker Vladimir Moysik, believes that the legalization of private detectives will provide an opportunity to adjust work and state law enforcers. In a memorandum to the bill, he analyzes the experience of those countries where the activities of private detectives is legal. According to People's Deputy, law enforcement officers there a more responsible approach to their duties, and private detectives relieve them from the petty and the unusual work.

Tools for Othello
Since registration in Ukraine detective agencies no deals, to name the exact number is difficult. But according to unofficial sources, they are about 2 thousand. Employees of these organizations claim that they do not hanging up on customers.
- Who are increasingly drawn to the services of detectives, hard to say, although in percentage terms, perhaps, individuals still more, - said the coordinator of the detective agency "Conrad" Yuri Conrad. - One of the most popular services - search for people. They search for a distant relative, friend, business partner, former officer or a subordinate, a classmate, the debtor's first love, and idol - star of movies or pop music. Naturally, the search for these persons to engage in law enforcement will not. The next question, sharp waves of our people - this is infidelity. To detective agency or private investigator could identify the fact of treason husband or wife's infidelity, sometimes in just a few swift action, and sometimes requires a range of preparatory activities.
Services private detective are not cheap. Searches of the person will manage the customer in the 250-500 dollars, and deal with the fact that fidelity and infidelity is worth about 350 dollars a day.
Very active now, and owners of businesses. Yuri says that bosses should hire detectives to check the personnel search for spies and disclosure of financial fraud. Businessmen also collect dossiers on competitors and partners. Extremely popular with the polygraph, or lie detector. Most use it to want to deal with robberies and thefts in the company, as well as the leakage of information. It is this "fun" about 1,5 thousand grn. Most business owners are checking the office to "bugs" and camcorders. Study of 1 square. m room costs about $ 10.

Exposing on the spot
Private detectives due to the specifics of their work are often faced with unusual situations.
- Contact us for a service man, who suspected that the wife had a secret admirer. She was later to come home, she had her new jewelry. And what was surprising husband when he learned that his wife did not exchange it for another, but simply without his knowledge went into business - Yu recalls Conrad.
According to him, there are cases when the husband asks his wife to provoke, that is, "to bait fish" or, conversely - his wife provoked her husband. On one occasion, when the agency ordered the surveillance of the object, but it turned out the object and a customer. It just amused, trying to "jump off the tail", checking professional detectives.

He remembers Yuri and another curiosity. Director of one company to perfect its staff to work for him to identify dishonest employees. The post sounded like a "sales manager". - Legend was excellent, and we expected that it will end soon, - says the head of the detective agency. - But on the first day, when my colleague went to "work", the head of the company gathered all their charges, and solemnly declared: "We have staff involved in the sabotage! We will expose you soon! We hired a detective, he was among you, and you would never guess who it is! ". One can easily imagine the feelings that have covered at the time of my staff, and later me. Thank you for your assistance in the preparation of material detective agency "Conrad» ( www.dobrobut.biz.ua ).

And they have
In the U.S., Britain, France, Germany, Canada, India, Israel, and so the work of private detectives is specified in the legislation.
In England the number of personnel of private security and detective companies is twice the number of police officers. In the U.S., the budget of such companies is 50% higher than the budget of the police combined, and the number of employees is about 1 million people. In Israel, when the number of the population about 5 million inhabitants, there are about 2 thousand detective agencies. Such data are contained in the explanatory note to the new law.
The law regulates the work of detectives and our neighbors in Russia. It was adopted in 1992, and for the first two years, officially earned 6605 security companies and security services.

Private detective to the rescue

Services detective agencies in demand, but it is still illegal
Alina POLISHCHUK


Demand for the services of private detectives in the world is constantly growing. According to recent data, about 70% of U.S. employers prefer services of a private police inquiry, and in Europe with a request for surveillance or the search for non-state actors once in your life turned every tenth. Ukrainians are not too squeamish about the services of this kind: according to statistics, in the detective agencies, drew more than 15% of our compatriots, but at least once planned to resort to private inquest every fifth inhabitant of the country. That's only until the Ukrainian company providing detective services at your own risk, since the domestic market of private investigation is far from the civilized state, and in fact illegal.

So, what are the services today provide Ukrainian Holmes? A list of them, in principle, is small, but diverse: a search in all its manifestations, establishment of adultery, the collection of information, photos and video surveillance, and business intelligence. "The leaders of the number of orders, of course, family problems, specifically - the proof of treason wife, - said the chief detective agency Conrad Yuri. - And if the West such services are ordered from mercenary motives - to dissolve the marriage contract on favorable terms - that We want people to follow a partner just for his own peace. "Once a client has asked us to even provoke his wife to commit adultery. Here's a Slavic mentality: you need to know whether you can trust in its second half." This regular monitoring will cost the customer in the amount of $ 200 to $ 600 per night, photo and video shooting suspect half - even at $ 100 daily, and a total cost of the operation to expose the wrong spouse starts from $ 500 to the limits of physical possibilities of the customer.

By tracing services, according to Yuri, is also resorted frequently. And seek not only classmates, or missing his beloved dog - often a detective agency treated the citizens, desperate to find missing loved ones with the police. "For the 80-90% of these people the best way out is the work of private detective - he believes - because in the organs under the current wages and working conditions is not necessary for the job of interest, there is no motivation to actively seek man. Tracing can take several months and did not yield results, whereas we obtain for their work real money - this is the best incentive for productive work. " Also often called upon to find witnesses to an accident or some incident, necessary to protect the customer's interests in court. Depending on the complexity of the order to find human detectives take up the amount of $ 250., Although in particularly complicated cases - especially if you want to go abroad or come into contact with law enforcement agencies - the payment may reach $ 1 - 5 th

"Video surveillance can be ordered in your own apartment - continues Yuri - to observe, for example, the actions of the nurse, or janitor. While in recent years, many companies turn over the installation of video cameras in the office to monitor staff performance." In general, according to market participants, the business trend in the activities of private detectives started noticeably strengthen their positions. For example, such a service as the collection of information, was previously the prerogative of the ex-wives who are interested in the situation of her husband-alimentschika, and foreign suitors who met via the Internet with Slavic beauties. Now the request for information about a particular person are increasingly making large companies to recruit staff responsible for the material, or managerial positions, or their owners, before signing a contract with new business partners, as well as the banking industry - before you give big credit to risky customers. If the request is a standard - the size of the fee for the collection of mini-profiles could be worth $ 200-300. In complex situations, when the stake is a significant corporate interest, this service can cost $ 1-2 thousand and above.

Often the specific pricing policy with a clear indication of cost of services for detective agencies there, and it is not in the conspiracy or competition. Everything depends on the complexity of the order and from that to which the sources have to turn detective when gathering the necessary facts. An important role is played here by the ability to enter the necessary rights of informants and the ability (or opportunity) to agree with them. That is why most detectives are former members of law enforcement services, retired or just quit.

However, on the authority of private detectives in Ukraine can be a long and hoarse arguing. According to unofficial data, in our country today has about 2 thousand private detectives and agents, half of them located in Kiev, and the other for the most part - in large cities in eastern Ukraine. This is quite a profitable business: the average annual income of each of the detective agency can make from $ 500 thousand to $ 1 million, depending on the workload. With all this detective business in Ukrainian differs from the others that has absolutely no legislative solution.

In fact, in our country is not prohibited detective work in general, and its elements. For example, violation of secrecy of correspondence, telephone conversations and other correspondence to be transmitted by means of communication or through a computer. On the other hand, the activities of private detectives in Ukraine, strictly speaking, is absolutely illegal, even in cases when it dealt with such innocent things as verification of marital fidelity or data referred to by someone in his autobiography. After all, art. 32 of the Constitution prohibits any interference with privacy and family life of citizens of Ukraine and does not allow for the collection and use of confidential information about a person without his consent. The exclusive right to conduct unofficial monitoring individuals and collect evidence of wrongdoing have only law enforcement agencies, and private detectives to those do not belong.

"The paradox, but to act within the law, detectives are forced to disguise themselves, - noted Yury. - For example, Conrad engaged in publishing, and now to get the information we are holding a journalistic investigation. Certificate journalist nevertheless gives a person a little more rights and powers to gather information. Some of our colleagues in the agency record as consulting companies, consulting firms, security office or law firms. And in contracts with clients is often spelled "information and advice or the provision of covert security."

Interestingly, the global experience of legal regulation of this market is, and quite rich. In the developed foreign countries, private detectives are often not competitive, and support law enforcement agencies. Thus, in the registered private detectives same America, Germany or France have special badges, similar to police officers, showing that a detective has the right to collect information for the investigation of certain crimes. In addition, private detectives are actively involved in all the small affairs (domestic loss, corporate theft) than significantly increase the percentage of solved crimes.

For example, in the U.S. list of private detective powers vested in it depends on qualifications. Class "A" gives the right only to collect information, so these detectives are engaged mainly in family and domestic problems of our customers. But detectives category "C" have the right to bear arms, to conduct investigations and even to detain suspects for referral to the police, than virtually equal to the police. British detectives also have the right to independently conduct criminal investigations, arrest criminals and send them the materials collected by the court. The only thing that can not do neither they nor their American colleagues - is to conduct searches and arrest the offender.



RESULT LEAD Reporters
 

Private detective agency in Kiev registered as mass media. With crust journalist capital Sherlock Holmes could find CellPhones or check decency Brides

Private detective agency in Kiev registered as mass media. With crust journalist capital Sherlock Holmes could find CellPhones or check decency Brides
Sleuthing in Ukraine do not, because he's not legalized, that is not governed by any laws. But detectives are smart people, and they easily found a solution: register their offices as ... media. Almost every detective agency - is some sort of criminal-analytical publication with a staff of "journalists"-detectives. And their work - surveillance, collect compromising information or verification of information - on the documents was listed as "investigative journalism".

Find mobile? It is cheaper to buy a new
Often, detectives came to the aid of the militia of the past. For example, to find a stolen CellPhones for private detectives in the cellar, according to the staff member detective bureau "Conrad Evgeni Siverskaya (name changed at the request of Eugene, to former colleagues from the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not know about her current place of work). - Boss brings us the documents for the stolen phone, we rewrite it a special number, IMEI, and then through a friend in the Ministry of Internal Affairs guys are pushing it on the basis of numbers on a special device ("comb") - and compute the location of the loss, - says Eugene. - For help former colleagues pay half the fee. If the phone is switched on, then immediately "shines". After this it remains only to come into place and remove the loss.
Not surprisingly, the police are in no hurry to look for stolen CellPhones. In a familiar author of these lines before the New Year stolen phone, just bought for 2160 USD. In Obolonsky police department, where she applied, only complained about the low salary and told to wait. In a private office, promised to find just a month. However, this service will cost $ 300, which is $ 30 more expensive than the cost of loss. It turns out that the claim makes sense only those phones that are worth more than $ 300. According to the agent spying Eugenia Siverskaya, the police did not find the stolen items, because it is not looking: "I myself - a former employee of the CID. And, as investigated by such theft, I know not by hearsay. Detectives have also have financial motivation - that's looking for. If "interest" police a couple of hundred dollars, the incentive to search for will and they will look - she explains.

Bride of the hotel
New orders private detectives are using "word of mouth" - a well-served by existing customers. Marketed primarily in the "network" - they can be easily found in search engines. At each office maintain that only they can get the services of these detectives. And the rest, they say, charlatans. Conclusion: the general view of respondents detectives, so you can trust office, which legalized themselves by issuing office as private media. Also important, that in the past, detectives were operational police investigators or lawyers.
However, despite all the status and merit, detectives often have to deal with domestic surveillance. This is due to the fact that the law prohibits a private detective to investigate such serious matters as murder or armed robbery. That's it nothing else to do but focus your eyes on the hot-blooded passion.
Double agents expose and dismiss
However, more recently on love problems Kiev concern business. Now the most frequent clients of private detective agencies - businessmen. They bought checking their business partners on honesty. If something is suspected, instruct the detectives to investigate. Being photo-and video surveillance of the man checked the premises for the presence of "beetle". Often in the course of the investigation show "double agents" - employees of the company, "merge" for reward information to competitors.
- We had a case - one of the largest firms of Kiev (on behalf of a client we do not disclose the name) has hired an employee, which eventually became suspicious of work for a competitor - says Sergeant Eugene Siverskaya. - Investigate invited our detectives. We have, through their communication channels and in different structures have received information about this employee. It turned out that he - "mishandled Cossack" direct competitor of our client. He was subsequently fired, and the firm has kept secret information.
According to Eugenia, detectives had to deal with, and authentication of documents - in this case, detectives mediators seek to graphology.
Often clients require to rich ones to spy phone calls and correspondence show competitor. Similar to the criminal world, business quite seriously ask inject an employee suspected of betraying the "truth serum". But, as a rule, such cases are private detectives are not taken. But check the people on the "lie detector" - always please.
In the schedule of investigators will always be checking on nannies and governesses decency. So detectives from the Detective Agency "Conrad" had a chance to unravel the mysterious traces of love letters that come with constant regularity spouses with unknown addresses. We find that the housekeeper - a young girl fell in love with Irina landlord. But he was married. And to secure his favor, she decided to embroil the young couple. To do this, Ira cracked email spouses and began to fall asleep their love letters. His wife became suspicious and asked for help in the detective agency. Detectives traced the IP-address from which you have been sent letters and came to the girl. After the nurse got thirsty calculation.
Woman with no address found on the station Camcorder
The most expensive service detective agency - to search for people. Only one day of investigation can cost up to $ 1000. Searching for a missing children, adults, and people with whom the will of fate broke off contact. But others are more romantic orders.
- We had a case under the code name "Girl with no address." A young man was riding transit through Kiev. At the metropolitan train station met a girl. Take a walk with her a few hours, he sat on the train and went home. Already in Ternopil realized that falling in love with a girl from the train station. He turned to us, but neither name nor her address guy did not know - remember Agent Eugene Siverskaya. - After analyzing the situation, we decided to start your search with video surveillance cameras, whom the station lot. Crook caught tapes for that night. After reviewing miles of film, we were able to find exactly the one that recorded the customer with a girl. After that, our search a little simpler. For camcorders, we trace the path of a stranger, and found that she boarded a train to Moscow. Learning this, the guy had cooled and set aside the search. All about all he had to pay 2 thousand and $ 500.

Detectives law does not apply
Today in Ukraine there are no such structures as the detective agency - as well as real estate agencies. Just because there are no laws on their activities.
Attempts to adopt such a law on private detectives made not once, but invariably ended in failure (the last time - in March last year, the author - MP Moysyk). While international organizations have long and strongly recommends that Ukraine legalize private detective as a method of combating corruption (maybe that's why the law has not yet been adopted).
True, the Parliamentary Committee on Legislative Support of Law Enforcement, inter alia, controls in some way that does not exist and this detective work. But even at the legislative level in Ukraine is forbidden to engage in private detective work of former mercenaries.
The main provisions of the bills are similar. For example, a private detective may be a citizen of Ukraine with specialized higher education, mental health, no criminal record, not staying in the civil service. The first drafts (Karmazin, 2000, Kafarskogo et al, 2005) demanded more and work experience in law enforcement, but in the latter (Moysyk, 2008), this requirement is waived.
Private detectives would be permitted to seek the missing people, animals, property, information, collect information for the treatment of the customer to court for the preparation of client negotiations (on the financial status of partner), biographical data (pedigree), etc. Allowed to interview people in touch with various authorities, visually observe people and buildings, to study the documents. But if the first bill proposed to allow detectives to use optical and radio devices and other scientific and technological means - in the latter, by contrast, are prohibited wiretapping devices, as well as film and photography, video and audio recordings in any premises without the consent of their owners.
In addition, the first bill proposed to allow the detectives in some cases to use firearms, handcuffs, rubber truncheons, tear gas, etc. In the latest edition of this word. But expressly prohibited the use of psychotropic and chemicals.

WWW-hacking. Internet-spying in Ukraine

Life as a palm. What is a robbery on the Internet, Hope Buchynska realized when her blog, mailboxes and ICQ were broken efforts of another man
Wives watching their husbands, their husbands - for lovers, parents - for children, and children - for friends. Ukraine become increasingly popular espionage on the Internet
Private Life of the network is becoming less secure from hackers, and the lack of privacy, under the version of CNN, will be one of the ten major Internet trends of this year.
Ukrainians are unlikely to be an exception to the general rules: the audience only social networking with us has about 6 million people by 2011 is projected to direct communications agency Social Interactive Media, there will be 85% higher. Transfer of privacy in the virtual space creates curiosity, jealousy inflames and causes aggression. E-mail correspondence, conversations through Skype and communication in social networks provoke a new way of privacy - electronic espionage. Fortunately, for every type of virtual communication already established program of electronic surveillance and intrusion.

Ways to get to the private data of Internet users more than e-mail servers, or social networks. The easiest way to hack e-mail or Internet pager ICQ, after analyzing the victim. Will all the available information about people and their hobbies and preferences tied direct contact, such as chat. As a result of communication is selected the password, or open access with the control issue. "Lovers keep information about where the baptized, married, went to the first class of first kisses, current accounts, color machines and nicknamed Bulldog, valuable advice - do not do this. You can easily become a game for cheaters "- warns Yuri Conrad, coordinator of the Kiev detective agency" Conrad ".

If the easiest option does not work, in the course is the heavy artillery: the post office's future victim is entered letter with embedded viruses. Typically, such messages have attachments in the form of pictures or files, which are encouraged to download and open. Often viral correspondence sent on behalf of reputable companies, for example, WebMoney, eBay or Deutsche Telekom. Many users do not think that a major corporation took from ordinary Ukrainian clerk open the link, just blowing into his private life clever hackers.
From $ 50 to several thousand can cost services hackers hacking e-mail or website of a private person
There are many special programs of surveillance and intrusion. Some of them are available for free download on the Internet, and more complex - to buy. For example, one of the most popular programs, Spy Recon, not only captures all that has been entered from the keyboard, including passwords, but also records chats, which were conducted using a computer (ICQ, Skype, MSN).

Trust but verify. Psychologist Maria Vashchuk believes that Internet hackers often become distrustful people since childhood.
Recovery from electronic break-ins - a handwork Members area, according to experts in the field of Internet security. And recommend to create complex passwords from a combination of numbers, symbols and letters in different cases. Programs guessing passwords easy to read only simple combinations of letters and numbers. On a serious hacking password may take years. Make up those combinations that do not forget, and change them every few months. Enter data only from trusted computers, as strangers may be tracking program "- suggests a hacker with experience Paul. Despite the fact that these rules are well known, many ignore them. "About a year ago I started an intrigue on the side. But with his mistress was too candid, without thinking about consequences. After we parted, she easily guess the password to my mail account in sotsseti and from there wrote to my wife, telling about our relationship in detail. In this situation, I have no one to blame but themselves ", - confessed businessman Victor.
The most vulnerable to hacking free email services. The singer Svetlana Loboda experienced it myself. Her personal e-mail regularly cracked the man, who previously worked with her. "Due to this I had 15 times to change the mailbox. Friends jokingly asked: "Which of the 20 boxes you send the letter?" My current mail is tied to the new official website loboda.com. But such a case, according to experts, much harder to hack "- confident singer.
In order not to change the e-mail ten times a day and do not generate passwords of fifty characters, you can use anti-spyware programs that scan the computer for the presence of electronic surveillance.
Psychology hacking

I want to know everything. Denis Avramenko almost became a victim of suspicion his girlfriend, who might want to hack his account of the social network.
For Ukrainian psychologists work with patients affected by the hacking, no longer is something unique. "The desire to monitor the partner usually occurs when a person is financially or emotionally dependent on him, as well as distrust or a lack of confidence", - says psychologist Alan Aksenova.
Many are victims of computer espionage, initiated by their own relatives and friends. "Unfortunately, this story happened to me. One person hacked my account on LiveJournal, mailboxes, ICQ, Skype, web site. In addition, the network appeared pornofotografii signed my name and my phone number. Persecution began several months after the divorce, and the cracker was a friend of my ex-husband ", - says financier Hope Buchynska.
Business coach Denis Avramenko also had to deal with signs of excessive curiosity on the part of relatives and friends. "At some point, my girl she suspected that I have forged relationships with the party had met through a social network. She paid professionals to hack my account "Vkontakte" and read the correspondence. But they did not succeed. Then - even funnier: the girl tried to guess the password, sitting at my computer until I was in the shower. But she again did not work. Although if you do everything correctly and accurately, to access any service on the Internet is not a problem "- confesses Denis.

Psychologists are advised to treat pathologically curious understanding. "This phenomenon is called" basic mistrust of the world. " Model behavior, planted in childhood, remains throughout life. If people do not trust, it will try to control, to create for themselves a sense of security ", - said psychologist Maria Vashchuk. And for certain types of people, with an excess of free time, hacking profiles - just a way to occupy their leisure time. Experts are assured: they are important fact of burglary, rather than data that burglars gain access.

Detectives searching for missing Kiev lovers and watching wives
 

In the private detective in fact there is no romance.
"KP" find out how the capital as "master detective".

Julia Mikhailuk. Photo Ludmila Marchuk.


In America, the private detective known as "hunters for a fee - in this country spy's fishing is very popular. For a variety of data to their services at least once in life resorted every tenth citizen of the United States. Ukrainians in this plan to catch up with America, not in a hurry. While market experts point out that the demand for detectives in Kiev every year only grows.
- People are increasingly turning to the detective, not because they do not want to deal with the police for fear of publicity, but due to the fact that law enforcement agencies are not willing to engage, in their view, small trials - Yuri explains Conrad, head of the detective agency of the same name.
To say exactly how many now in the country working private detective services, is difficult. According to unofficial data, there are about 2 thousand, the official is not there. Reason - in Ukraine in the list of types of business do not see the availability of private detective services. This means that the license for such activity is not provided. Therefore, as recognized by their own detectives, detective firm must masquerade as a security consulting company.
- Our company, for example, went into publishing, I mean, we collect information as journalists. But in drawing up contracts with customers for our services are specified as "security guards hidden", "legal advice". In general, customers are satisfied, - says head of "Conrad".

On the verge of law
They say detectives, the peak of citizens was in September - November. Basically this is a request to find a person with whom he was violent, but brief holiday romance. In most cases, the ladies are looking suddenly evaporated lovers. Want to find a seducer - laid out on 200 dollars a day. If you suspect your other half of treason, then to spy on a spouse is 350 conventional units per day.
- Orders for the disclosure of infidelity are very popular, - says Yuri Conrad. - Especially if the case goes to trial and need photographic or video evidence of treason. But there is one "but". Our legislation prohibits invade privacy rights, so in contracts with customers, this service is stipulated as "the provision of information advice.
Such balancing on the verge of the law is understandable - in our country has not yet adopted the law "On private investigative activities, which, according to attorney Ivan Makar, led detectives to work in the legal field.
- This legislation has repeatedly fed to the consideration of the Verkhovna Rada, but, unfortunately, passed and was not, - sums up the lawyer. - But despite the indifference of deputies and the public to this issue, the legal status of the investigators in this country should be resolved.

Children - our all
One of the main directions of the work of private detectives has been and will search for the missing people. Especially when it comes to children. Some detectives say that the reason for this - strong police workload, which can not pay attention to each individual case. Some argue that if the police and look after matters, not all at once, because by law, before turning to law enforcement, relatives must wait three days, and then carry a statement.
By the way, the professionalism of the detective is not only in their ability to extract information, but also in its ability to analyze and use. Here, too, play an important role communication skills, acquired earlier while serving in the militia. So many mysteries in the majority - are former operatives, people with higher legal education.

And they have?
Overseas private detective in a sense, are the backbone of official law enforcement structures. For example, a detective in Germany, France and the U.S. are in stock special chips that have some similarity with the police. Detective even has the right to detain the offender. Also, they are allowed to carry weapons.

Money is
The cost of the services of private detectives depends on the complexity of the order and level of material capabilities customers. Moreover, not all detectives stipulate payment to clarify the complexities of the job.

Here are some figures:
• Investigation of people - from $ 250/sutki;
• surveillance of a spouse - $ 350/sutki;
• Investigation and inquiries on hardcore alimony - $ 300/sutki;
• photos, video surveillance - $ 350/sutki;
• Collect information - from $ 200/sutki;
• search of witnesses - from $ 250/sutki;
• Inspection of vehicles to hijack - $ 200;
• debt collection services - 20-50% of the amount repaid.


"Appealing to the detectives, you are sure that the secrets and mysteries no longer in your life"

ergey talked Sachenko
"Legal newspaper"
15.06.2010. ¹24

• Mr. Conrad, despite the lack of legislative framework on the regulation of private detectives in Ukraine, the number of services in our country is rising. What are the services currently provided such structures?

- In today's world, when difficult life situations arise almost universally, people simply can not do without professional help. And not all questions can understand the employees. Nicely and efficiently solve your problems will only detective. To turn detectives to find lost property (stolen car) to expose the infidelity of the husband / wife, to ensure the personal safety of others. Quite often our customers are concerned parents who want to make sure their children are caught up in criminal gangs do not use drugs or alcohol, etc. Bad Effects of the teenager must promptly notify, in this and just be able to help a private detective, who will monitor the child. Detective will take on tracing missing relatives or old friends, check data for a specific person, know the address and phone.
Detective makes monitoring necessary parties, fixing the results of tracking using photos and video. Appealing to the detectives, you are sure that the secrets and mysteries no longer in your life. Contrary to popular public opinion, the prices of private detective services, the majority are available to many citizens, not just businessmen and rich. The more that use the services of detective, more often, spent much cheaper. In addressing the Western world and Europe have long since ceased to accept private detectives, as something special. This private eye - as a private psychotherapist or physician, that detective - something routine and everyday. Any problem can be fixed. Whether the problem is in the business (doshkulyayut test multiple instance, was leaked sensitive information to competitors and others.), Or personal issues (people search, observation, land disputes, illegal dismissal, criminal proceedings for a loved one, etc.). should apply to the private detective and the problem quickly cease to exist.
Today's Internet network rozplodylosya "many sites and ads ostensibly private detectives. They offer various services to customers in a relatively small cost, promising quality and speed. Consider carefully whether zvablyuvatys the speed and cheapness of questionable services organizations to receive as a result of deception and disappointment. Spotter should always be professionals. Do not hesitate asking his detective story of successful cases. Trusting agencies novice, there is always the risk of further exacerbate the situation.

• Do not violate professional detective constitutional rights and freedoms of citizens, paying for them to order customer or collecting personal information about them?

- Purely from a legal point of view can say that the detective is prohibited activities, and its elements. There is an art. 1932 Constitution, which prohibits any intervention in private family life of citizens of Ukraine and does not allow confidential information about individuals without their consent. For example, violation of secrecy of correspondence or other correspondence that is transmitted through the means of communication or computer, data validation, described in his autobiography - all of this somehow could be deemed illegal.
Detective agency working for a long time, never allow themselves to violate the law regarding civil servants to work, practicing getting information that has state or official secrets. Main activity detectives family home (betrayal, checking children search for the missing, etc.).

• Who are the main clients of your services? What kinds of services they most often ask?

- Most detectives are turning to, zapidozryvshy adultery. This is mainly women aged 30-40 years. But one should be cautious in their desire to know the truth. According to statistics, the news of betrayal can affect a person so that it can lead to mental disorder or hysteria. However, if one spouse suspects the other of infidelity and firmly decided to hire a detective, psychological barriers are overcome. Private detective - an expert, with absolute guarantee will respond if a family rift. For get about adultery have to fork: detective work hour costs from 40 W., depending on the complexity of the task and Privacy Policy. Experts say that only provide information about where and with whom a spouse. No photo and video evidence as we do not. If the private detective ready to shoot video, this dishonest employee.
If one spouse does vmovyt detective on the shooting, he automatically becomes an accomplice to the crime "- unfortunately, these realities of our work. After the information obtained to trace the same person and see if people really change. And if the information is confirmed, you should decide to file for divorce or not. Treason is no cause for divorce.
Do not register in the box "Reason divorce" speech "systematically betrayed," but - "do not match the characters. Buy detectives and missing people. Not always willingly taken by militiamen searches. This is
rather with a load of local police than with unprofessional. Methods used by detectives, each its because they disclose no one will because it is confidential information. But in six of seven cases of missing person can be found. However, there are cases for which the coppers are not taken.
Nobody agrees to seek 90-year-old grandfather, who suffers from unconsciousness. Search service person would cost a customer to a tidy sum.
Apartments for theft chosen not casually: first, thieves will know exactly what is stored in the house - jewelry, money. Then watch the masters and find out when their is no home. And only then hesitant on offense. Spotter can help identify victim offender, and sometimes return stolen. For example, if a person has recently been made repairs, then most likely theft was carried out aiming for the workers. Detective believes that this information can serve as an occasion that I can find criminals. Detective services will cost expensive, thus if detectives need to go for opening business in another city, the customer pays additional costs. Do not treat only the services of detectives: you need to write a statement and the police. If the detective finds the thief, he shall immediately transmit the information law enforcement authorities and withdraw from the case.

• How will collaboration with the client if he went to your agency incognito?

- Working with our agency customers can take place both in communication and incognito, that the customer can contact us by phone, and we do not need to call your name, you only need to clearly articulate the issues that need to decide pay 50 % of the cost, then we do address the issue. After running the client pays the rest.

• Who of you working with foreign partners in its work?

- A prolific and long partnered with recognized leaders of the detective in the world. Many orders are transmitted to us for implementation in Ukraine, as well and taking orders from us when things concerning countries, which far exceed the capabilities of our colleagues. The names of these organizations do not make it subject to the conditions of cooperation. For the best results that suit our clients, we provide methods to achieve. Are frequent enough to travel abroad of our specialists where necessary.

• How risky is your professional business?

- Clearly, the risk is in each work, but if you meet certain safety regulations, the problems will not. So the case of detective agencies, if the agency operates within the law, does not pass a certain limit, then there is no risk, because we are professionals who clearly feel this threshold.

• How do you feel how your activities should be regulated at the legislative level?
Is today really take in Ukraine, a draft law?

- Detective work in Ukraine today is very popular, because demand for significant and must meet.
Moreover, the detective work faces the problem is not their social perception. Most of the citizens of Ukraine do not like people who can learn about others involved in monitoring and obtaining information from different sources. Therefore subjects detective work to change public opinion and convince the citizens of the need for and protect their reputation. Provided bills on the activity of a new detective in detective work and not make a set-up to certain limits. But the state, especially the Interior Ministry, private detectives fear. As private detective - is the same old law enforcement agencies, divisions, who worked on this country and have the experience that "vtrut nose" current employees. In the internal affairs now dominates youth lacks experience. Retired operatives willing to go to law firms and private agencies to help former colleagues and obtain additional information. But the most responsible and dangerous operations still carry state operational-search service. According to this scheme are private agencies abroad: they perform all the laborious intellectual work to establish an attacker, or to detain him, seeking assistance to police. Thus, private detective work required to society. May later be the law according to which a profession will be clearly regulated by legal provisions.

• Tell us more about the state of your company. Where previously worked your current colleagues?

- Our team - a group of professional investigative work.
Professional external surveillance, experts search for missing people and gather information on any degree of importance, experienced criminologists and experts in the field of economic security. They form the core of our team. All our employees possess significant experience in law enforcement agencies. Every private detective - the master of narrow specialization, thoroughly versed in his case. All of our detective agency staff have significant experience in operational and managerial positions sub-criminal police and Interior Ministry units SBU. Have a law degree. Many years of experience and professionalism of our employees allow us to perform work of any complexity at the highest level.

• What are the interesting and unusual cases you recently had to work at work?

- Some of the stories who could tell a whole.
In one case, where we ordered a monitor object, as it turned out that the object was found and the customer, who just rozvazhavsya trying to jump down from the tail, or checking our professionalism. He then ordered us to gather information about his business partner.
Another strange thing that happened with my staff, who agreed with the director of the company arranged to detect dishonest employees.
He was appointed sales manager. Legend was excellent and we expected the deal done quickly. But the first day, when my colleague went "on the job," CEO gathered all their charges and solemnly declared: "We have employees involved in sabotage! We vykryyemo you soon! We hired a detective, he is among you, and you for anything zdohadayetesya who he is! ". It is easy to convey the feelings that swept at the time of my staff, and later me. As they say, no comment - make conclusions yourself.
In one case, when a customer - Anonymous, requested to gather all possible information as was then known to himself. Said - "just for fun that you can dig up.
Appealed to us for the service, a man who suspected that his wife appeared in a secret lover, because the latter was coming home later, she added new jewelry, in other words, it demonstrates the existence of a third person. And that man was surprised when he learned that his wife did not change, but simply engaged in business (without his knowledge) yet not very legal.
A similar case when the man was often a long time to go on business trips. I had to just spend it on "landing place" - a neighboring house, where his wife lived girlfriend, well and has, accordingly, man.
Not rare cases of appeals, when a man asks his wife to provoke so-called "the cuttings, the man's wife or vice versa. I asked it to record videos.

Yuri Conrad
Director detective agency "Conrad"


In Kiev already Holmes
"Legal Khreshchatik"


In all major Ukrainian cities of detective agencies is growing rapidly
Once on the detective agency and private detectives can perhaps read in books, seen in the TV series and movies, and now dozens of such organizations in Kiev can be found simply through the Internet. Corporate investigation, tracing people, following the husband, wife, seeking alimony repeat defaulters, photo, video surveillance - all these and many other services today for decent wages can provide any detective agency. As the detectives themselves, appeal to the private detective agency - is the best way if you for whatever reason can not apply to your problem to police. However, due to unresolved legal detective work in Ukraine should be cautious so as not exposed to fraud.
Nyshporky in Ukrainian
A significant increase in the number of private detective agencies - characteristic of many developed countries. Especially many private detective services in the U.S., with over 3500 such agencies, bureaus and companies. In Ukraine, they were formed only in the nineties of last century. Nevertheless, as the director of the detective agency Conrad Yuri Conrad, in the capital and in all major Ukrainian cities the number of such organizations will soon be compared to the massive beauty salons and barbershops. According to Mr. Conrad, negative in that market many scams that appear like mushrooms after rain, and just disappear. They only inspire confidence in decent agencies. This trend leads to unresolved legal detective work in Ukraine, as legally private detective work is not. Therefore, customers of services have full protection.
In a "non" Ukrainian private detective, of course, life is not easy. "What is not forbidden, that allowed" - declare our Sherlock Holmes and smartly laviruyut between legal dangers of domestic legal framework. Most of Ukrainian private detective agencies registered as mass media (the media). However, the time in our country start trying to legitimize the private search. That's new to the Verkhovna Rada were filed another draft law on private detective activity. "This document has lobbyists as well as opponents, while all agree that such act Ukraine needs", - says Yuri Conrad.
Operates most national detective agencies former law enforcement, law enforcement agencies. "When you work in government posts - explains Konrad Yuri - we felt that after the service will need to deal with something related to the former work. And yet you can implement yourself when no private detective? During the service many of our friends asked to provide services, which is now called the detective, but we had no right to help them, as were the civil service. And only after retirement or dismissal of their own volition we have that opportunity. "
Detective Price List
The main objective of private detectives and detective agencies since 1834 of the first detective offices Bureau of Investigation for Trade-led Chef "Syurte" Eugene Francois Vidoka today has changed radically. However, the range of detectives to protect businesses from commercial Vidoka crimes have increased considerably. In business now private searching can help protect computers in the office, to avoid infringement of the fruits of intellectual, financial and other activities to effectively confront threats from competitors. Most detectives also notes that the private search - is the best solution in cases of crime and as such do not apply to the police no reason. "For example, you suspect a wife (husband) in infidelity. Where to go with your suspicion? Certainly, the private detective. This is probably the only person in this situation which can operate efficiently and without emotion. With all the necessary information, you will be able to take balanced, correct decision ", - says Yuri Conrad.
Services detective also help save time, nerves and money when you want check all sorts - from various documents or to purchase vehicles alibi man. Private detective and looking lost, missing, stolen property, people. Such services often needed and parents, because no one is immune from difficult situations in which a child could get. Then, according to George Conrad, private investigation is an effective complement to law enforcement.
And all this is quite a wide range of services to meet today far expensive. Total cost of services of private detectives depends on the complexity of the order and level of material capabilities client. Moreover, not all coppers cause payment to clarify all the difficulties the task. Most detective agencies in pricing are: searching people - from $ 250/doba, tracking people - $ 350/doba, search and inquiry of malicious Debt alimony - 300/doba, photos, video - $ 350/doba, gathering information - $ 200 per night search of witnesses - from $ 250/doba, checking for stolen cars - $ 200, Collection Services - 20-50% of the amount refunded.
Demand for "treacherous"
According to the detective agency Conrad, often to the services of private detectives turn customers who do not want to go to the police, because it is considered ineffective step. This investigation concerns mainly because the police often leads a man with the words: "In the morgue there, so alive. Go and do not disturb us. " Observations and search for the missing people - the most common reasons for seeking the assistance of private detective. Almost half of each application related to the misconduct and to organize following the husband or wife, boyfriend or girlfriend. Neridkisni appeals cases when people asked provoke a spouse on the cuttings and capture it on video.
Also, many wanting to have a full installation to a specific person or organization. With such requests to the detectives often ask businesspeople who want to verify the sincerity of its partners, see if the company nominee is going to ship them "golden mountains for copper prices.
It happens in detective work and many curiosities. Some interesting stories from my own experience Khreschatyk Yuri told Conrad. "Once we turned to a man who suspected that his wife appeared in a secret lover, as she was coming home later, a new jewelry. In the end it turned out that the wife simply opened the business without the husband. In one case, when Anonymous asked to collect all possible information as was then known to himself, "just out of curiosity, what can dig up. Another strange thing happened with my staff, who agreed with the director of the company arranged to detect dishonest employees. He was appointed as sales manager. Legend was great, and we expected the deal done shortly. But the first day of "work" my colleague and head of employees gathered and solemnly declared: "We have employees who resort to sabotage! Such vykryyemo soon! We hired a detective, he's already in you and you would never zdohadayetesya who he is. "

Donetsk families save detectives


Announcement with a promise to "Create an alibi for the adulterer" first call I just wonder - why not just find on the Internet! But the journalistic curiosity got the upper hand: if such a service offering - so there is willing to use it!
Drunk janitor saved from divorce
If you think well, petty lies in our lives enough. Themselves sometimes stretching the truth, and its other easily forgiven. But when it comes to cheating, there is no place for jokes. That it is the most common reason for divorce. Should I keep this family, psychologists have not decided yet. But donchane in the current economic conditions precisely know: to save the relationship much more profitable than destroy them. Financial costs, the problem of division of property and housing - do it too difficult and unpleasant.
But what if your spouse you suspect of infidelity and of principle willing to put a full stop, even though neither you nor she really did not want to? Just in such cases and should use the services of specialists alibi - real detectives. Today even have a special agency that can help you come up with a truthful explanation, for example, his night away. In professional language, this is called "domestic alibi."
- Just imagine: a man had lived twenty years in a happy marriage, and came across a drunken spree on the case. Not to destroy the same family! Most likely will not tell a lie, each, moreover, in the morning and can not remember what naplel. And here for you all will make specially trained people - explains my partner, Detective Yuri Conrad. - The most important thing in organizing an alibi - is to create a logical and easily justified the legends about the events that could really happen. Here, as in the perfect play, no longer do without a detailed scenario and details, and sometimes without the extras.
Recently, the assistance of the Jury asked 43-year-old resident Makeyevka Peter. "Do something: three days could not tear himself away from his mistress, and when I get home without a" history "- the wife will kill!" - Begged the man. Detective with aides thought long. For a small sum agreed with the janitor, who gladly agreed to participate in "alcoholic" performance and "pumped" it together with the customer vodka. When the men came to the condition, the agency workers, disguised as a waiter and a security guard cafes, brought the two bodies at the customer. Delinquent husband, barely moving his tongue stammered his wife that he met a friend who had not seen, went with him to drink ryumashke, and did not notice how time has flown. And as the evidence presented comrade. Spouse, of course, a little chided the faithful, but was clearly pleased: her worst fears about the possible betrayal of her spouse did not materialize.
It turned out that representatives of the weaker sex is not less carefully try to hide their adventures. And so cleverly disguised that only detectives, and by virtue of their expose.
Instead of a lover - work
As it turned out, the assistance of detectives to address not only when one spouse to maintain a reputation. Many wise and knowing his own worth women are not allowed family problems lead to divorce and ask for professional help detectives to return to their relationship with her husband former passion.
For example, in the case of Maria Petrovna and Denis Stepanovich - a married couple with a great experience - the role of young lover, whose existence was suspected the husband, played ... totally innocent wife a new hobby.
- Dennis S. long assured us that his exemplary wife in his old age decided to instruct his horn - with a laugh, says Yuri Conrad. - She was later to come home, she had her expensive jewelry. And imagine how surprised my husband, when, with our help to learn that life just a companion without his knowledge went into business.

It also happens that the detective asked to help start relations. In September experts "Conrad" engaged in such a case. Anastasia, an employee of one of Donetsk law firm, fell in love with his colleague, but no way to communicate with him outside work did not have. The girl had to get a chance to interest a loved one. Therefore, detectives, romantics have realized a completely insane script. Nastya and her lover "accidentally" sent a joint mission in a train compartment. Their fellow traveler just "suddenly" turned out to be a gypsy, who was told once they love. A few more clever manipulation - for example, during a stop at one station a couple watched the fireworks in the shape of hearts - and the guy believed it: next to him - his legacy. Ordered it a miracle at a cost of eight thousand dollars. But in November, young people get married.
... - To guess that supposedly true story is nothing but a well thought-out legend - must be a detective himself - experts say. - All of the evidence - information, tickets, certificates and bogus friends - chosen with utmost precision. Detectives give you a chance to fix the error, if you stumbled, or bring the dream. However, it is hardly cheating, even beautiful, systematically. Much nicer when the relationship does not require the intervention of outsiders.

While her husband went fishing ...
Organize a wholly-owned alibi for a man who can not afford to just walk to the left, but also provide an excuse in advance on the highest level, according to detectives, Donetsk, simple. One of the most common examples - call the wife of the house on urgent business.
- For example, if the husband is a hunter, come under the guise of game wardens to his home. It turns out that men are no longer doing "control shooting. Say: either pay a fine of 500-600 dollars, or go with us to hunt. Any woman, of course, prefer to keep the family budget - laugh detectives. - So the next day we come to "Bobby" with a group of hunters and supposedly takes away the client. The same offer fishermen. By the way, we do not always have to hide bad intentions - sometimes make an alibi for her husband, who actually went to the football or out with friends in a bar: very jealous of his wife and is ready for them almost shot.
... Wife teaches French
Approach to organizing an alibi for women is more subtle. For example, you can send it to the trip, and even abroad. A provision of tickets and the necessary certificates quite a problematic thing. The most important thing - credibility. One day we asked 23-year-old Anya - says Yuri Conrad. - With her husband they were together at school, so perfectly know each other. New love has covered her head, and his wife do not dare hurt her. Yes and no reason was: to change her husband she was not going. We had to suffer badly to come up to her legend. In the end, Anne began to attend French language courses, though in fact at this time, she met with her lover. But to anyone about anything not guessed, we provided the girl with books and she really had to learn the language of Edith Piaf.

Must agree. The owners of expensive apartments on the detector is checked for future tenants. Each such check costs them at least $ 150-300. "Once or twice a week for us to lie-detector test give their clients the owners of expensive apartments in the heart of the capital. People are worried about their property, so they want to know whether the customer is not going to steal from their apartment, not whether it has to do with criminal circles, if he is going to use the apartment for shooting galleries. "
In Detective Agency "Conrad said that after the test on the detector can even say whether to perform in the past the man and the terms and conditions carefully whether it refers to the host's property. "We test the client on his past: he is not burning through cigarette furniture, not wound up in someone else's apartment if the dog did not leave a debt behind. Of course, to ensure that within a month the client does not make something bad, we can not. Because people can get into difficult situations that will force him to steal something, for example ", - said Igor, a polygraph detective agency" Conrad. "

So after the departure of tenants disappeared and chandelier. Therefore, I am now ready to spend money on a detector, that be sure that nothing will steal"- told us from Kiev Olga. Moscow police chief DSP Volodymyr Polishchuk said that in recent years Kiev has become less of these crimes, when tenants are robbing the landlady's apartment.
