subject: How To Get A Background Check Thailand [print this page] Thailand Private Investigators have seen sharp increases in business from foreign customers. Investigations often focus on brides, girlfriends, and internet dating relationships, as well as foreign business partners and investors. With the high degree of fraud in Thailand, getting a background check or due diligence investigation is an important security decision. Proceeding in a personal or business relationship without one can be very costly.
Despite the fraud, there are opportunities in Thailand, both for personal and business relationships. Beautiful brides and profitable business ventures do exist, but hiring a Thailand private investigator to do a professional background check is an effective way to protect yourself.
When considering hiring a Thailand detective, it is a good idea to check their location. Many are based in the United States or Europe, not in Thailand or even Southeast Asia, so the first step is to make sure it's possible to speak with someone that is actually in Thailand!
While these foreign private investigators may provide excellent service in their home countries, there is a major disadvantage to doing "long-distance" or "internet" investigations in Thailand. These companies must normally subcontract their services, furthermore without local agents or staff, it is difficult to control the quality and timeliness of their work. In addition, Viet culture, customs, and laws are very different from other countries, and of course the service costs outside Thailand are also much higher.
Don't be misled by big companies, fancy names, bogus claims and trademarks, or flashy websites, make sure you can speak to someone that is actually located in Thailand and can give you customer references and samples of their work before you start. We recommend the following:
1.Only deal with companies that are actually located in Thailand. Don't hire someone whose office is in the US, you'll only be paying extra for a middleman that cannot control the quality of their subcontractor's work.
2.Be especially wary of any companies from Florida. According to Consumer Fraud Reporting (www.consumerfraudreporting.org), Florida has one of the highest fraud rates in the US!
3.Make sure they can communicate properly in English, or Thai/Lao.
4.Check if they can provide redacted samples of their work.
5.Don't deal with companies that only accept bank transfers or transfer money. Make sure they provide standard universally accepted payment methods that provide consumer protection such as PayPal, Xoom, MoneyGram or with most credit cards.
6.Make sure your information is confidential and secure. Check to see that their websites have proper security and privacy technology.
