I've literally never thought about PIs in Singapore. I can see the grey where they operate and I don't know how I feel about it, but thanks for letting us see into this.
PIs are definitely not vigilantes fighting for justice. They are being paid to stalk people to gather evidence against them. Legal? Maybe. Ethical? Debatable.
I reported and burst a PI agency many years ago. They sell my whole household personal details to a foreginer who pay them 5k. I hate PI that doesn't follow law. I didn't do any crime or cheat on anyone. I just refused to provide my address and get into a long distance relationship with a guy staying in usa who's timezone is 12 hours after sg. The PI freaking sell my whole household details to a foreginer. Imagine if that guy is ndp or some kind of evil person...
@@rickylovesyou the PI may know his client lie to him but because of money and they do not want to deal with customer complaints they stalk and sell your household details. They can claim they did it because their client lied to them
I support this. The kid will not be happy and treated well by a cheating mother. In fact, a person who chose to cheat, means their personality is questionable. It’s better for the kid to stay with their dad. ❤
Have to consider all the factors from both sides. What if the husband has been abusive and violent? We can’t expect the wife to openly tells him that she’s finding another partner, right?
As a birder, I get an adrenaline rush when a bird appears and within that short period of time, we need to capture the bird. I guess private investigators have that same rush too.
I run a private investigation agency in London, UK. This is the best short documentary about the industry so far. Most people have misconceptions about private investigators due to what they know from TV shows and Hollywood. It’s not all James Bond ,fast cars and chasing people. You can gather huge amounts of information on someone without leaving the office. Surveillance is then used to gather real time evidence of something for the clients. Cheating partner surveillance is just a small part of what a private investigators do.
What if the cheating spouse long prepared for the day with all of the preparation done... Safe house, routes, etc..... How do u follow someone on a tunnel
Hello i would like to ask how to have an investigator for my cheating spouse. We are is sassari Italy but it was all happened last year and this past few months when I found my spouse was cheating on me
justice is really is just different for all and often some parts are still hidden. PIs is good that they are able to get the truth out of what happened, its a last resort for a simple problem, ingenuousness
If being a PI is legal and not shameful then why need to hide the PI? Many years ago my current bf from USA hire a PI to investigate my address and he got my whole family details. He came knock at my house because i don't think long distance relationship will work out. We only got married in an online game and he told the PI i am suicidal and that guy charge him $5000 then give him my details. I reported police to get that agency busted. I did end up dating my bf because he managed to moved me by coming over to sg. But i cannot forget the PI because he gave my parents, grandparents, siblings and cousins details to his client. I didn't commit any crime yet a foreigner can just pay 5k to buy the personal details of my when household
What?? You’re still blaming the PI for this you should be blaming ur bf instead💀 The PI is just doing their job, ur bf is the one who hired the PI what are you talking about. And they need to hide the PI due to their nature of work, clearly if their faces are shown people would know that they’re a PI right.
@@Fretmuchayr Scratched my head when I read their comment too. Clearly, there's a bigger problem and it's not the PI. A hitman doesn't kill a rando for no reason, someone *paid* for the job. There's probably a code of ethics(or not idfk); they mentioned the BF lied about them being *suicidal*, so the PI may have been mislead into taking on the case. Barking up the wrong tree. Like wot r u even talkin bout mate.
@@Fretmuchayr if that PI didn't break the law the police won't arrest them. He does think his client is lying but he accepted the job offer and provide him the details. Did the client request for every household personal details? Nope he just want my address because he scare i commit suicide. The PI quote a price enough for my whole household because he knew he is from usa thus cannot stay in sg too long. Or he don't even believe that a usa guy will travel 24 hours flight to sg.
@@serpentsforhair police won't arrest them if they are innocent. He told the police he doesn't think the USA client will come sg. Also u think anyone can simply hire PI online and make payment. If so anyone can easily harm you if you allow such businesses to grow. And if i am a evil person, just because your comments on YT doesn't make me happy i hire a pi for your whole family personal details then harm them how? He admit that he doesn't belive his claim. He accept the deal because he do not think he will come to sg. He did admit to the police that the story wasn't convincing. FYI, my case was even brought up to mp and newspaper reporters. It is damn dangerous to leak local personal details to a foreigner. Police said it was against the law. The mp i meet to file a former complain also agree it is illegal. They press the police to investigate this matter.
Does my grandparents and Dad's business got to do anything it? What does their bank account and even shopping details on Qoo10 and lazada got to do with it. Even my school going cousins are not spared. Singapore law doesn't support private investigator because of such abuser. They are once police or in a job that let them able to access normal citizen information easily. They should not be selling.
Please stay away from others' destiny. If we become part of others' destiny by providing evidence to break up their marriage, then we are also responsible because we contributed to it. Are you going home tonight and proudly tell your wife and children that you managed to take some photos or videos so that you can contribute to break up others' marriages and families? If you aren't noble enough to reconcile families and save marriages, at least don't be part of their misfortune. People find it easy to break up families and marriages because you contributed and made it easy. How about you? Do you want a good marriage and family yourself? Some of these cases involve young children in the families, they may be crying out for daddy, mommy! And you sleep very well at night? What goes around, comes around. Please choose your livelihood wisely, one which does no one any harm. Do not be involved in anyone's fate. If our income comes from hurt and tears of others, it's not conscientious money. There is a universal law of cause and effect. This is very real. When it ripens, please don't lament. The so-called justice comes naturally in many ways, yet you don't have to part of it. And who are we to decide the destiny of others? Yes, there will always be people who are ignorant and choose such a livelihood, just let it not be you. Bless all!
“Exposing a Cheating Spouse”, and that story was over in about 2 minutes.
He chose an unstable job which makes him feel alive, over a stable one.
Quite amazing.

Wow, that must be dangerous and exciting. You are definitely helping a lot of people. All the best!
Full of praise. Well done OGS team, especially Wendy! This is great content, and so glad I'm subbed. Keep it up!
love this ep!! the edit and the suspenseeee👏🏻🕵🏻
So what do you think? Are Private Investigators vigilantes fighting for justice, or just stalkers preying on people's distrust?
Depends entirely on the intention of the PI doesn't it? Cant make a blanket statement on it.
There's an element of justice, for sure, even if paul doesnt feel that way.
PIs are definitely not vigilantes fighting for justice. They are being paid to stalk people to gather evidence against them.

damn, the hardest part really is to trust people around you when you work around knowing humans backstab each other everyday 😢
As a birder, I get an adrenaline rush when a bird appears and within that short period of time, we need to capture the bird. I guess private investigators have that same rush too.
I think we have it in all of us - the adrenaline of the hunt. It's probably the legacy of our hunter-gather ancestry.
this is like VICE, but SG version! love it!

Keep up the great work Wendy and team! Can’t wait for the portable toilet cleaner episode next! 😃
how can i get a PI in LA?
very cool! i thought this is well shot and informative. the interview questions were great too. - a fellow singaporean
using diffusion to mask the subjects looks really good
This is insanely cool! If I can startover again sometimes I wish I could be a detective or PI. Like always solving hard puzzles.
You will spend most of your time waiting outside somewhere…
Thats mostly movies. Most times i can imagine its boring
if you can watch paint dry, then you will enjoy working in that industry coz you have to do a lot of waiting.
Solid video. Pls pls have more.of PI
I think OGS should do like maybe tomb sweeper as part of the next series or next episode of hidden hustles!
Love the edit of the man it reminds me of Across the spiderverse
ogs, hands can be traced too...
This is so cool! Am now envious of Wendy!
Using generative AI to do the censoring is genius!
I like this post. All the best Wendy!

I only have one question.. where is that KFC outlet, anyone knows? thanks!
It’s at Kallang
Dressed in black, has a hoarse voice, wears a mask, does investigation, works alone Yup, its Batman
Let me disclose the location. It’s in Queenstown.
Good work
The number of times Wendy says "okay"
First 👍🏼🙌🏼
this is not a job, its an adventure
Take care of yourselves 😂
didn't you guys just expose his office AK global LOL
exactly
and for all the amazing anonymity footage you did in the car you pretty much exposed him on 2:47 as well. seems counterintuitive.
AK Global is a firm with many PIs representing it. It’s more of marketing than exposing.
@@kelvineus yeah but i'm pretty sure there's only 1 of that firm in Singapore.
edit: just an observation don't stalk me please AK global.
How about a story on grave digger?
Haha.... the timing of this video...
Thats like kfc at stadium and old airport road there rite😂
Paying the system can give a death certificate of man alive.while helping someone to take his place.
justice is really is just different for all and often some parts are still hidden. PIs is good that they are able to get the truth out of what happened, its a last resort for a simple problem, ingenuousness
Cemetery grave job.
i was damn sian when she didnt know what the tape was -_-
so thats how my sister caught her husband.
very nice earrings
You guys just exposed him with the bag strap and ring of his. Oh oh

@@XducationAI You have wisdom. They don't.
You have the wisdom that others dont have. You are kind enough to spend some time and effort to warn people. Your actions are appreciated.
@Celestial Star Thank you. Hopefully, more people are mindful of the harm they may cause.
Most guys in sg cheat anyway
I think I know who Paul was.
Me too
