T.B.G.I. (Thailand Bar Girl Investigations)

Gogo Bar and Beer Bar Methods:

There are 4 basic ways we do most of our investigations in Thai bar girl and bar-related cases.

Which ones we use depends on you, our customer, and the standard of proof you are seeking.

1) Remote Observation - Just want to know if the girl is going back to the bar? Simple! One man with one camera nearby. Look like just another tourist and nobody notices. Hardly James Bond stuff! Often one of fastest and cheapest operations.

2) Close Observation - We enter the bar under the guise of being just one more customer, blend with the crowd and keep a close eye out for your girl. You get our full report on how she handles herself, what she does, how she acts with other men and most important, does she leave with anyone! With this method we avoid at all costs any contact with your girl.

Note that with this method photos are rarely possible. Not only is it extremely hazardous to our operatives, but the fact is that without a flash even the best camera will be challenged to get a useful picture.

3) Pretext Interview - One of the more devious methods and one that gets results. We’ll follow the close observation plan, but actually make contact with the girl. We’ll take the time to chat her up, buy her lady-drinks (as you specify– you’re paying!) and get her talking.

Will she admit to having a boyfriend (you!), several boyfriends (some of them are proud little collectors!), and what else will she say? And we’ll take her temperature, see if she’s willing to be bar-fined and what her price is for the night.

And our investigator will have the language skills in Thai and the Thai-Lao-Isaan dialect to understand what she’s talking about with her friends at the bar. Audio is sometimes an option, but not a good one in a loud place like a gogo bar.

4) Entrapment - We follow the plan of #3 but take it to its logical conclusion. We pay bar for the girl, walk her outside and a second agent gets the incriminating photos. This method takes a little more time to prepare and costs more (a second agent is generally required to work the camera) but provides proof beyond all doubt.

Don’t worry, we’re not going to sleep with your girlfriend! (If you’d actually care after we catch her out!) Our primary agent will get an “emergency call” and have to say goodnight, give the girl 500 baht for her trouble and send her back to the bar none the wiser to catch another customer.

If the girl is doing outcall massage, a second agent is not practical, but a secret video setup can be arranged in the hotel room. We’ll have our agent stop where you tell us to stop, i.e. at the point where you’re convinced of what she’ll do.

Freelancer and Massage Parlour Methods:

More or less these are variations on the above.

In the case of a girl who works as a freelancer she’s not guaranteed to be in a given place at a given time, but most girls do fall into certain habits and make the rounds from this bar to that club in a predictable pattern.

In the case of massage parlours we will NOT attempt a photo inside the building. We can catch the girl coming from or going to work, or we can ask for her for an outcall if required.
