Background checks

If you want to make the most informed decision about whether to commence a business relationship with a person, employ an individual, or engage in an ongoing romantic commitment, a background check is an excellent start in attaining the most comprehensive information possible that the individual might not otherwise divulge voluntarily. They might have a criminal record, or a history of disreputable business arrangements that they’ve obscured through a range of fabricated identities and personal rebranding, however there is always a paper trail or series of breadcrumbs that we are experienced inidentifying, either in the real world or online. We are capable of performing an exhaustive search of hundreds of databases, sifting through their online presence including dating websites and social media, and any other niche presence they may have on the web.

Bug Sweeping

Often your competitors or other prying individuals may try to gain the upper hand against you. If you suspect a competitor or some other malevolent individual has planted bugs or other hidden devices in your home, office, or vehicle, Group One Investigations is your first port of call in Melbourne to uncover these devices, pinpoint the weaknesses in your office or home security that enabled the initial intrusion to occur, identify the organisation or persons behind the furtive observation and, most importantly, give you peace of mind. Don’t let yourself become a paranoid mess searching for these devices on your own. More often than not these types of devices are undetectable to the human eye and will typically be hidden in everyday objects and electrical equipment. Along with our expertise in bug sweeping, we have specialised equipment that can detect concealed devices of this nature. Once we’ve discovered these devices we can identify the best course of action along with options to ensure that your needs are satisfied.
