A Private Investigator’s Tricks of the Trade, from Surveillance Prep to Gear and Reports Surveillance is one of the oldest and most common practices in investigative services. But whether you’re gathering protective intelligence on a subject or investigating an insurance fraud case, real-time direct observation remains a useful tool to keep greased in your toolbox .
Every good protective agent has a passion for gear and being resourceful. It is a trait that is inclusive of many of sub-traits that are highly valuable in this profession. One of the largest interests among practitioners whenever they get a moment to themselves is “What multitool is that?” or “What bag is that?” and so on and so forth. In this article I will shed some light on my typical packing list with some insight from other practitioners as well. As always, the items and recommendations may be suitable to your task, threat and environment and should be modified in order to be effective based on your parameters.
