Tips and tricks

Bonus tip at the end!

Hello everyone!

Whenever you step into hotel room or guest house, do follow below steps to detect hidden spy camera. If you need to use changing room in the mall, you must perform step #3. 

Lets get started.

1: Turn off all the lights and check for any blinking LED lights. Sometimes camera comes with on off indicator and it becomes very easy to detect them just by inspecting blinking LED lights.

2: Identify potential places for hidden spy camera and scan for normal camera as well as Infrared camera with the help of hidden camera detector app.

See below image to identify the suspect in any common place
 

 

3: Perform 2 way mirror test :

Sometimes, especially in changing rooms, camera is placed behind the mirror. Such mirrors are 2 way mirrors that means you see your reflection in the mirror but person or camera behind the mirror can see you through the mirror as a transparent glass. It is very easy to find out 2 way mirrors. Just touch the mirror with your fingernail. For normal mirrors, there is always a gap between actual fingernail and its reflection. But in case of 2 way mirrors, there is no gap between actual fingernail and its reflection. So if you do NOT see any gap between the fingernail and its reflection, it can be a 2 way mirror.

4: Open Wi-Fi and Bluetooth from Android or iPhone and scan for suspicious network like (“IP Cam”, “1080”). Read this guide to know more in detail. You can also watch this 60 second video.

5: Open Torch, put the light on suspicious objects, open mobile phone camera and see if you see any glint.  Camera lens throw a glint under torch.

6: Check broken sockets and broken electronic equipment especially when you are at PG house or hotel room.

7: In case of any doubt on any equipment or lens looking object, place a cello tape or cloth over it. This is the best preventive step you can perform. Always carry non transparent cello tape while travelling. 

8: While sleeping, always turn off TV. Cut off main power supply (Mostly in hotel rooms)

9: Change the direction of flowerpots, coffee machine and other such appliances towards the wall.

10: Inspect the balcony area for CCTV.

Bonus Tip

If you have smart TV that has camera and internet connectivity, it can easily be hacked and misused. To prevent this threat,

  1. Update the software of your smart TV to its latest version
  2. Apply a sticker/ cello tape on the camera if you are not using it.
 

Laptop camera can also be hacked if you have installed unauthorized software.

So apply a sticker or cello tape on your laptop camera as well. If you use laptop camera for your office / personal calls, then have a non transparent card, bent it in middle and cover your laptop camera using hair clip.  That way you can use camera for your calls and when you don’t need it, you can just cover it. For MacBook you don’t need to do this as MacBook cameras are hardwired with LED light. So when laptop camera is in use, you will see the red light glowing.

Do you know even a Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg applied a sticker on his laptop camera! You can read this blog if it interests you further.

  11. Hey everyone! Most Smoke detectors, when they contain cameras in them, the camera device in the fire alarm is an INFRARED CAMERA DEVICE. SWITCH TO INFRARED CAMERA MODE, AND THEN, AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PHONE SCREEN, ON THE BAR, HORIZONTAL LINE UNDER INFRARED CAMERA MODE, MOVE THE BUTTON TO THE MIDDLE, THEN POINT YOUR CELL PHONE CAMERA AT THE FIRE ALARM, IF YOU SEE BLUE/PURPLE, TO MY UNDERSTANDING THAT BLUE/PURPLE LIGHT MEANS THAT YOU ARE BEING WATCHED BY A STRANGER. ONE MORE VERY VERY IMPORTANT TIP TO EVERYONE READING THIS, THE FIRST RED FLAG THAT A SMOKE DETECTOR/FIREALARM CONTAINS ILLEGALLY PLACED HIDDEN SPY CAMERAS, IS THAT THE FIREALARM WITH AN INFRARED CAMERA IS HOOKD UP TO A.C. POWER, ie. a.c. power means wires coming out of the wall and right into the smoke detector. Take care all! Be safe.

  12. I’m trying this app as I am sure my neighbours are commentating on my movements on my bedroom.

  13. I. M downloading this as my neighbours seem to commentate on my movements in my room. They stole my room key so they definitely had access to my room.

  14. For some reason this resonates with me… I have had the strangest things happen to me… Upstairs neighbor spying being followed …. Sketching behavior from people I thought I knew .. like agent Smith … I believe you when you say anyone who says they know…. Are lying. .,.I have confronted ever situation just to be told lies ..

  15. I’m being done the same way I’m to the point I’m ready to hurt someone bad it’s coming between me and my girl cause I think she is part of I watch her every move they really don’t know how much danger they are putting their selves in and people wonder why there are these un explained killings like someone just walking in somewhere and just start shooting this is a good reason for it these people need to stop cause i think this is a big reason why these killings take place something to think about…..

  16. I have the Pro version and it’s quite inconsistent. It will detect in a specific area and when I go back to that same area, it doesn’t detect. I have upstairs neighbors that know my every move. Go room to room as I silently walk thru my apartment. They react by stomping on the floor if I say something that pisses them off…I speak in a quieter than normal voice…they follow me everywhere I go and are already outside when I leave my house. I’m so tired of this. It’s been almost 4 years of this and I can’t get proof cuz anytime I try to record them, they see me and then they are quiet. They are cowards and don’t have the balls to act like a fucking adult and talk to me face to face. Instead, they purposely look to what room my dog is in and stomp so hard that she hides and shakes. They have completely traumatized her so bad that her vet put her on anxiety meds. Anyone here had the same thing happen to them? What did you do?
