Trick Theft Cases Rising Rapidly

Theft and embezzlement by employees can often be proven through surveillance. A healthy level of mistrust towards employees is reasonable, without assuming that all employees are inherently criminal. Our corporate detectives from Hamburg will be happy to explain your options for monitoring and, if necessary, gathering evidence against staff in a personal consultation.

While motor vehicle theft in Hamburg was around 8,000 cases per year in the 1990s, it is now only about 2,000. This is primarily due to the ever-improving and therefore more secure technology of modern vehicles. In contrast, cases of shoplifting, trick theft, and pickpocketing are rising rapidly. While shoplifters can often be caught on site or via surveillance technology, the police clearance rate for pickpocketing is low, as it is for trick theft. The key in combating theft is prevention. For many forms of theft that cannot be solved by the authorities, or which for reasons of discretion are not pursued, the detectives of Kurtz Corporate Detective Agency Hamburg are ready to assist you: +49 40 2320 5053.
