Surveillance scaled

Surelock’s Surveillance Services

Surveillance is not easy, we always tell potential clients “You cannot make surveillance happen, it has to be intelligence lead” – a particular day, time and location.

Much surveillance nowadays is domestic / cheating partner surveillance, sadly this usually only takes a day’s work to prove the clients’ worst suspicions.

We have experienced surveillance teams located all over UK able to deploy fairly quickly for the needs of our clients.

We also carry out corporate surveillance for business, accident injury surveillance for insurance companies / loss adjusters.

All our surveillance is covertly video recorded, we keep the client informed of the findings and supply a detailed log of events with selected photos, a full unedited DVD is also available if required.

Our experienced operatives can give evidence in Court or other legal proceedings, we have in fact been commended by the Courts for the precise and detailed records we keep.

Qualified Eletronic Countermeasures Engineers scaled 1

Surelock’s Bug Sweeps

Electronic Countermeasures Sweeps (Bug Sweeps) it really worries us the number of companies out there offering countermeasures sweeps with little or no experience. It is so easy to purchase equipment off the internet or from and electrical retailer and then sell this service to unsuspecting clients who think you are the experts.

Of course the electric sweep using ‘Radio Spectrum Analysers’ , Computer based SDR [Software Defined Scanning] Technology, High Gain active Scanning Antennas, Dual hand held GSM and Full Spectrum Near Field Detectors, NLJD –Non Linear Junction Detectors and GSM [Cell phone] activity detectors are very much an important part of any sweep, but for us the most important part is the fingertip search and for this you need a trained electronic engineer who knows what to look for. 

Then at the end of the operation you can genuinely tell the client that there is nothing there or indeed find out that there was, that is what our clients rely on!

Your privacy is worth protecting, if you have a need for this professional service, please contact us https://www.surelock.org/contact-us

Fraudsters may use the situation in Ukraine as a cover story to get you to divulge personal details or move money out of your bank account.

Please be cautious. Banks never ask you to move money to a safe account or ask you to share your passcodes or PINs. If in doubt, give your bank a call using the number on the back of your card.

Fraudsters may also use this opportunity to ask for donations to fake relief efforts – please be careful and check you are donating to an accredited legitimate charity.

Anti counterfeits

Surelock’s Social Media Brand Protection Services.

During the Pandemic Facebook and Instagram have become major sellers of Counterfeits 

There are over 26,000 active counterfeit fashion accounts on Facebook and over 20,000 on Instagram. While the sum of these accounts is down from a peak of 56,000 in 2019, it indicates the fitful progress of Facebook/Meta Platforms in their efforts to stop these hawkers and the sale of illicit designer goods.

The proliferation of counterfeit fashion can dilute the appeal of a brand, as consumers increasingly associate high-end brands with the armada of knockoffs.

However, the continued spread of these counterfeit fashion companies undermines the credibility of these online marketplaces as outlets for high-quality goods.

Most of the accounts discovered on Facebook and Instagram were based in communist China (65 percent), with significant minorities coming from Russia (14 percent) and Turkey (7.5percent).

Surelock has a dedicated team that deal with internet / social media who have taken down numerous bogus web sites and many thousands of online marketplace listings for trademark and copyright infringements. We offer a personal service designed for our clients not a computerised service.

If you have a Social Media counterfeit problem do not hesitate to contact us, we will discuss all the options, so you know the costs and exactly what is involved.
