Profession Detective. An interview of detective Pelekasi Nikos in the magazine se-skepseis.gr<\/a>
\n<\/p>\n

–<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

How does one become a detective? Is there a school?<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’s no school, they work around ex-cops who keep offices, get trained and then open their own offices.<\/p>\n

-Do you need a license?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, from the Ministry of Civil Protection which is renewable and can be revoked in case of violation.<\/p>\n

-What is your role and activity?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We work to protect the interests of citizens. On several occasions, however, we have been entrusted with public sector cases.<\/p>\n

-Why should someone come to you when they can refer the case to the police?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Because many cases are not the responsibility of the police. The police, even if they have the competence, cannot deal with each case individually, they see them as a whole.<\/p>\n

-What is the largest percentage of cases, professional or private ?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I can’t tell you the percentage because business cases have a longer time frame while personal-family cases have a shorter time frame.<\/p>\n

-What do clients ask for in personal and what in professional?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In business they ask for information about competitors, products, executives ,staff, reliability of partners-transactions ,information leakage ,theft of goods etc. While in private premarital investigations, extramarital investigations, juvenile surveillance, theft, fraud, Internet fraud, etc.<\/p>\n

-When you say Internet surveillance, what do you mean? -What do you mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Facebook<\/a> virtual fake profiles, threats, internet scams, extortion. Several times I have mentioned Facebook and social media<\/a> in general. They are good but for those who make benevolent and limited use. A large percentage hide behind a computer to take out their aggression ,immorality ,adventurism and reap either mental or financial benefits. I confess that I too often draw some information from social media.<\/p>\n

-What is the role of technology in your profession?<\/strong><\/p>\n

For someone who has the experience but cannot keep up with technology, it is impossible to get positive results in a survey. Because times have changed and information is no longer carried by pigeons ,smoke signals or messengers.<\/p>\n

-Is there any cooperation with the police?<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is cooperation with the police and I would say quite good.<\/p>\n

-Is the profession of detective dangerous?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is quite difficult and several times we are exposed to danger ,experience is essential because a mistake can bring opposite results and nullify the investigation.<\/p>\n

-How many years have you been in the profession?<\/strong><\/p>\n

First of all, I must confess that I come from the police, I served in the NSA and other secret services. I have been retired since 2000. I now have a national licence from the Ministry of Civil Protection and work as a private investigator.<\/p>\n
