“I am so very grateful for Michael’s expertise in his field.  Thanks to him I was able to put together the pieces of a very disturbing puzzle!  I knew Michael through our connection with business marketing and I had looked at his business profile, but hoped I would never need his services.   Well, in November 2010, I did.   I got that feeling he describes that something just wasn’t right with an old boyfriend.   I suspected he was tracking me so Michael took my car out to check for anything suspicious.  During that time he mentioned how cell phones are just not that secure.   He informed me of certain characteristics with my cell phone that most likely could lead to a virus.  A few weeks later, my phone was functioning as he described.  I think it started acting strange after I clicked on a picture link.  The phone diagnostics were completed and set back to factory settings and the problem was gone. The man I suspect of viewing my text messages, used the information to set me up!   I may never have realized what was going on if it wasn’t for Michael’s expertise and genuine concern for my safety.  I started becoming more aware of suspicious activity and then I noticed my home internet phones were acting just as Michael describes on his website.  There were static, low tone, clicking noises and hang up calls with no caller ID displayed .   Believe it or not, shortly after I noticed this, there was a car idling outside my house …picking up my internet and phone I guess!!   This man always knew things about my activities and I guess this is how he did it!   I told Michael about this and about how he just showed up where I was all the time.  That is when Michael mentioned GPS tracking on my cell phone….was this how he always knew where I was?  I turned off that option on my phone.  I also had my whole house swept for listening and video devices so I knew that my home was safe for my kids and I.    This was a traumatic experience and I’m so thankful I had Michael to call.  Listening to his advice, reading his blog and viewing his website allowed me to realize what was happening.

The evidence collected on Michael’s investigation helped me get the local police to confront the suspect and obtain a restraining agreement. This may be a problem solved and the end to my privacy being violated. I consult with Michael on a regular basis now to help educate myself and my children on how to live safely and securely.  Michael was instrumental in helping me regain my privacy and sense of wellbeing and I highly recommend him for his thorough job and professional attitude.”

Michael Guadagno became the most trusted individual in my life when I discovered the betrayal of being ‘watched & hacked into.’  I learned the painful lesson that the only person who I can truly trust is myself AND Michael.  Finding ‘spy material’ is an act that ‘runs through Michael’s blood’.  He is knowledgeable, intuitive and sensitive to peoples’ feelings.  This sensitivity starts with the client and carries through to all the other people that are involved.

Michael ‘thinks like a spy and knows how a criminal thinks.’  These perspectives support him while he ‘unravels’ the details of a situation. When I called Michael, he came to my rescue as a caring brother.  His stability comforted me so that I could confront my circumstances more responsibly.  When we realized the depth of how my personal life had been ‘compromised’ through illegal invasion of my computer, phone, residence and business; it became obvious that I was vulnerable to blackmail, ‘set up’ and false accusations in order for my accuser to benefit financially.  My business may have been the next target for invasion.  I highly recommend Michael; if you suspect that your private life is being watched or  compromised because from there it may go after your business, and any assets you may have.

Former Client, Raleigh, NC

As the Executive Assistant to the CEO it was up to me to research and make arrangements for someone to help us with what we thought was the stealing of confidential business information. After losing a few multi-million dollar bids to a competitor who came in only too comfortably close under our bids, we were concerned.

Your investigation for cameras and key logger devices made such a difference. Our trouble was within and you were able to weed out speculation on which one of our employees may have been responsible for steeling confidential information. We feel this is the same person who later sent this information to our competitor. Your evidence made all the difference. Not only did you get to the bottom of this situation, but you’ve taught us so much about protecting our company. We look forward to doing business with you, not only to train us on other prevention techniques and also to ‘sweep’ our offices for criminally placed devices on a routine schedule. The confidentiality of our business name is to remain.
Thank you so much.

I am a professional consultant and have done extensive business in the large corporate financial services arena.  In 2010, I began to experience some disturbing events that suggested something unusual was occurring.  As a result, I became highly suspicious that I was the target of unwanted surveillance.

After researching the counter-surveillance field, I turned to Michael Guadagno, of Michael Guadagno Associates Counterespionage Investigations, engaging his firm to conduct a sweep of my residence, my home office and surrounding area.

From the initial consultations, and throughout the investigation, Mr. Guadagno approached my case in a low-key, no-nonsense manner – bringing to bear an impressive combination of investigative, technological and interpersonal skills – all allowing him to effectively understand, assess and address my concerns.

Mr. Guadagno understood from the beginning that “security” is more than just technology – it is a state-of-mind.  He not only worked hard to ensure that my situation was adequately and accurately assessed but that my longer-term sense of security was being restored.  Long after the investigation, he worked hard to answer & address my ongoing concerns, thus helping me restore my peace of mind.

From my firsthand experience, Mr. Guadagno’s expertise, his integrity and his genuine commitment to his clients – to both their security and to their wellbeing – are what set him apart from his competitors.

I give him my unqualified recommendation.
