Private Investigators, What's Something That Would Surprise People About Your Job?

Tell us your ✨secrets✨ about professionally uncovering ✨secrets.✨

Are you a private investigator or do you know anyone who is?

If so, I sincerely want to know some tricks of your trade, or at least some things you've learned from your various PI adventures.

Like maybe you've been hired to spy on SO many cheating spouses that you know the easiest ways to catch them and the biggest telltale signs of infidelity.

Or perhaps you've had some weird cases that flipped the script on you, like you caught a suspect who turned out to be an undercover investigator themselves!

Maybe a case you worked on still remains unsolved to this day, and you just can't stop thinking about it.

Perhaps there's something that people do when they think no one's looking that's very strange but soooooo surprisingly common.

Or maybe you just have some really wild stories. Regardless, we wanna hear 'em all!

Tell us your private investigator stories, facts, and other tidbits in the comments below for your chance to be featured in an upcoming BuzzFeed Community post!
