Live GPS device found hardwired in vehicle during bug sweep by Privin Network in Columbus, GA.
Columbus, GA - May 21, 2025 - In a recent case that underscores the growing concerns over unauthorized surveillance, Privin Network, a leading private investigation firm, successfully uncovered a hidden GPS tracking device during a Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM [https://privin.net/services/tscm-service/]) sweep in Columbus, Georgia.

The client, a resident of Columbus, approached Privin Network with suspicions of being monitored. A comprehensive TSCM sweep was conducted on her residence and personal vehicle, a 2021 BMW M440i. Utilizing advanced detection methods - including radio frequency (RF) scanning, thermal imaging, borescope inspections, and meticulous physical searches - the investigative team aimed to identify any clandestine surveillance devices.

While the residence showed no signs of active surveillance equipment, investigators noted significant insulation deficiencies that could potentially allow external conversations to be audible indoors, posing a passive surveillance risk.

The pivotal discovery was made in the client's vehicle, where a Spireon GPS tracker was found hardwired to the car's battery and concealed within the trunk lining. The device activated upon physical disturbance, indicating it was live and transmitting real-time location data. Photographic evidence, thermal imaging, and borescope visuals were documented to support potential legal actions.

In response to these findings, Privin Network provided the client with actionable recommendations:

* Installation of Security Cameras: Deploying Ring camera systems around the property to monitor and deter unauthorized activities.

* Investigation of Device Origin: Advising consultation with the vehicle dealer to ascertain if the tracker was dealership-installed, while cautioning against third-party removal to preserve evidence.

* Enhancement of Structural Defenses: Implementing spray foam insulation and Faraday EMF-blocking fabrics to improve soundproofing and shield against signal infiltration.

* Regular TSCM Sweeps: Scheduling annual inspections to detect and prevent future surveillance attempts.

This case highlights the importance of proactive measures in safeguarding personal privacy. Privin Network's expertise in TSCM services continues to provide clients with peace of mind in an era where unauthorized surveillance is an increasing concern.
