Recently, many such cases have come to light in which couples were recorded during their private moments in hotel rooms and then blackmailed. This is not just a horror story, but such cases have come to light from many places, where people were threatened and money was demanded by being recorded with hidden cameras.
If you also travel often or stay in hotels, then you can save yourself from such trouble by adopting some simple steps. In today's digital era, where everything can be recorded, it is very important to be alert.
Cameras can be hidden in these places in the hotel room.
These 5 places in the hotel room have the highest chance of cameras being installed. When you check into the hotel room, first of all, check these places carefully.
First of all, look at the bed and the place behind it, because the camera can be fitted there.
Apart from this, it is also easy to install a camera right in front of the TV or TV unit, so that the entire bed can be covered.
If the room is a little bigger and there is a sofa or a seating area, then there is a possibility of a camera there too.
There can be a hidden camera in the bathroom too, especially in the mirror near the wash basin. The entire bathroom and every movement of the user can be recorded from the mirrored area.
Apart from this, look carefully at the charging point, remote control, AC, or other electronic devices. Cameras can also be fitted inside these devices, which are difficult to catch.
Use these tricks to find a hidden camera:
1. Find out the hidden camera in such a hotel room from your mobile
If you find anything strange or suspicious in the room, then turn off all the lights in the room and turn on the mobile flashlight and illuminate every corner properly. Wherever you see a small light or reflection, there can be suspicion of a camera. Especially look carefully at things like lamps, TV, decor items, paintings, and mirrors.
2. Take help from a camera detector device and mobile apps
If you travel a lot, then buying a spy camera detector is a good option. These devices are easily available on shopping apps nowadays and are not very expensive either.
Easy way to check from a phone
Along with this, you can also download apps on your mobile that detect any recording devices in the room. For example, with apps like Radarbot and Detectify, you can scan the room.
If you have any doubts, do this work immediately.
If you have any doubts about any device or place, then put a towel or cloth there so that recording does not happen. Also, immediately inform the hotel staff about this. If you do not get help from there, then inform the police without delay.
Nowadays when cameras have become so small and advanced that they can be fitted in anything, it is important that we remain alert and take care of our privacy. Taking care of these small things after entering the hotel room can save you from a big problem.
