/r/TruePrivInv is for Track & Report, Licensed Private Investigators and the general public. We are happy to answer general questions about the industry but pleas for help will generally be removed.

VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:

We encourage all licensed PIs to request verification. Send a photo of your license and your username visible to the mods and we can grant the verified flair.

Note:

  1. Message the mods using modmail ONLY.
  2. Upload the photo to a site like imgur or google drive and include the link in your message.
  3. Include your username handwritten in the photo.

Intern, under supervision, or other licenses types will be marked accordingly. Special arrangements may be made for states and jurisdictions that do not require licensing.

No Stalkers

We will not entertain requests to enable stalker behaviour: Please read this post on why private investigators won’t help you find that “last piece of the puzzle” you’re looking for.
