ELECTRONIC BUG DETECTION & DEBUGGING

Despite the laws designed to protect us from these types of invasions of privacy, electronic bugs and wiretaps are regularly used to spy on people involved in litigation, divorce, sensitive business, and well-to-do individuals. Imagine if all of your conversations with friends, family, business associates, lawyer, doctor, or accountant were being monitored by someone.

In the age of technology that we live in, it has become increasingly easy and economical for even the most conservative budgets to be able to afford to purchase and install electronic surveillance devices. These devices can be video or audio in nature, and can be, and usually are, extremely covert in nature. Due to their relative size and intent of being undetected, they are extremely hard for the lay person to recognize, locate, and remove.

Even if you are not involved in business, litigation, or divorce, ordinary people have been victimized by criminals and others who "bugged" their home, automobile and workplace, and gained access to telephone data lines using electronic bugs. The police receive too many calls from "unbalanced" people who claim that someone or the government is bugging their home to pay attention to legitimate concerns like yours, and most law enforcement agencies are not properly equipped and trained to conduct an effective sweep. Your phone service provider is also not able to help you. This set of circumstances leaves you on your own. That’s where we come in.

To ensure you haven't fallen prey to technical surveillance, Brian Blackwell Investigations conducts professional electronic counter measures to detect covert surveillance eavesdropping devices ("bugs") and hidden cameras that may have been placed in your home, your automobile, or your offices. The removal of which is known as Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM).

Technical Surveillance Countermeasures are steps taken to detect and prevent unwanted surveillance. Technical surveillance often takes the form of eavesdropping by bugging a vehicle, home, tapping a phone line, or installing hidden cameras, with the intention of committing corporate espionage, privacy invasion, extortion, identity theft, information theft, or stalking. Being the victim of technical surveillance can endanger your personal safety and leave you vulnerable to potential financial damages.

Did You Know

  • A simple modification to your telephone handset can leave the microphone connected all the time allowing anyone to listen in to all conversations in the room
  • A telephone transmitter or recorder which transmits or records all of your telephone conversations may be installed in the phone, the socket or junction box, anywhere on the line, as far back or even inside the exchange
  • A bug may be installed without entering your premises
  • A wall socket or light switch may be replaced with an identical unit that contains a built-in transmitter or SD card recorder, powered by the mains
  • Software is available for phones using the Android and iPhone operating systems that can record all room and telephone conversations, the recordings are then sent by the phones internet connection to a server where the person who has installed it can listen to the recordings on their PC. Copies of text messages, emails, and conversations people are having nearby can also be sent to the server.

Some Indications That You May Be
A Victim Of Bugging

  • Confidential information seems to be getting out to a competitor
  • Competitors seem to be just one step ahead all the time
  • Your home or premises have been broken into and very little or nothing was taken
  • Wall sockets or switches show signs of slightly being moved, i.e., the wallpaper may be disturbed
  • Various vehicles parked near your premises that appear to be empty
  • You hear unusual sounds (crackling, clicks, volume changes) while talking on your phone
  • Repairers or unknown companies turn up to carry out work when they have not been called
  • Furniture or items appear to have been disturbed
  • Interference on your radio or television

Electronic Bug Location and "Debugging"

We use modern, advanced debugging equipment combined with investigative know-how to find electronic bugs that may have been placed by an unsavory competitor, an insecure spouse, greedy family member, and criminals.

We will do the job discreetly. No one else needs to know your concerns. All of our cases are handled in a completely confidential manner.

Electronic Bug Sweeps | Brian Blackwell Investigations

Brian Blackwell Investigations'  Electronic Countermeasure Sweeps, also referred to as Debugging, Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) and Bug Sweeps—we handle all types of electronic debugging operations. We handle both cell phone and hard line tap detection, radio frequency (RF) bug detection, room testing for RF (also known as Radio Signals broadcasting), hidden microphones, and tape recorders. We inspect telephone instruments, telephone systems, all hard wiring, (including cable lines), phone lines, electrical lines and Cat5 or Cat6 wiring. In addition, we can locate and detect GPS trackers and GPS logger tracking devices on vehicles. We perform physical sweeps and audits of your home, office, and car.

We find both audio and video electronic bugs. If a electronic bug is found, it could result in a felony against the person who installed it. We will preserve all evidence collected so that the police can properly follow-up with their own investigation of the matter.

We offer a 3 month money back guarantee. If an electronic bug is detected within three months after we have debugged your location, we will refund your fee for service. All requests for refunds must be accompanied by a police incident report indicating that an electronic eavesdropping device was found, either audio or video, in the location where services were performed. The report must document the exact location of the device when it was found.

Eavesdropping – Privacy Laws

To listen and record conversations, where on telephone, device or in person, without the knowledge of those being recorded, certainly brings into issue state and federal privacy laws. Telecommunications and eavesdropping laws come into play as well. Title III of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act already outlaws wiretapping and other forms of electronic eavesdropping, possession of wiretapping or electronic eavesdropping equipment and use or disclosure of information obtained through illegal wiretapping or electronic eavesdropping. 18 U.S.C. § 2510et seq. In essence, this act prohibits any person from intentionally intercepting, or endeavoring to intercept wire, oral or electronic communications by using an electronic, mechanical device unless the conduct is specifically authorized or expressly not covered.

  • In Washington State, all parties to either an in-person conversation or elec­tronic communication generally must consent to its recording — a requirement that is satisfied by one party’s reasonably effective announcement, which also must be recorded, to all other parties that the conversation is about to be recorded. Wash. Rev. Code Ann. § 9.73.030 (West 2012. For electronic communications, both parties must consent. It is unlaw­ful to record a "private communication transmitted by telephone, telegraph, radio, or other device between two or more indi­viduals" without first obtaining the consent of all participants in the communication. And because the statute does not differentiate between oral and written private communications transmitted electronically, the consent of all parties likewise is required to disclose the contents of text messages sent between wireless devices. Wash. Rev. Code Ann. § 9.73.030.

Statute


All parties generally must consent to the interception or recording of any private communication, whether conducted by telephone, telegraph, radio or face-to-face, to comply with state law. Wash. Rev. Code § 9.73.030. The all-party consent requirement can be satisfied if "one party has announced to all other parties engaged in the communication or conversation, in any reasonably effective manner, that such communication or conversation is about to be recorded or transmitted." In addition, if the conversation is to be recorded, the requisite announcement must be recorded as well. Wash. Rev. Code § 9.73.030.

A party is determined to have consented to recording if he is aware that the recording is taking place. Washington v. Modica, 149 P.3d 446 (Wash. Ct. App. 2006.) Consent to recording of real-time conversation using online discussion software is implicit because participants know the conversations will be recorded on the other party’s computer. Washington v. Townsend, 20 P.3d 1027 (Wash. Ct. App. 2001.) Moreover, an employee of a news organization engaged in newsgathering is deemed to have the requisite consent to record and divulge the contents of conversations "if the consent is expressly given or if the recording or transmitting device is readily apparent or obvious to the speakers." Wash. Rev. Code § 0.73.030(4). Anyone speaking to an employee of a news organization who has been deemed to have given consent cannot withdraw that consent after the communication has been made. Wash. Rev. Code § 0.73.030(4).

Statutory liability exists only for nonconsensual recording or intercepting, not divulging, of private conversations. Kearney v. Kearney. 974 P.2d 872 (Wash. Ct. App. 1999.) The statutory terms "Record" and "intercept" do not encompass the meaning of divulge. Whether a communication is considered "private" under the statute depends on the factual circumstances. Washington v. Townsend, 57 P.2d 255 (Wash. 2002.) The state Supreme Court has identified three factors bearing on the reasonable expectations and intent of the parties: (1) duration and subject matter of the conversation, (2) location of conversation and presence or potential presence of a third party, and (3) role of the non-consenting party and his or her relationship to the consenting party. Lewis v. State Dept. of Licensing, 139 P.3d 1078 (Wash. 2006.)
