Russia Background Checks are Critical to Russian Success

Private investigations have been key to decision makers for ages. Having relevant, reliable and accurate information at the right time is an advantage and it is clearly the reason why even governments spend so much money and effort in their intelligence and investigative teams. Unfortunately, on a personal and business level, we sometime forget how useful or critical an investigation could be.

Background check investigations in Russia have become a critical step into doing business, hiring or even meeting people on a personal level in this country. Internet crime has expanded throughout the country, and no one is to trust anymore. Criminals can easily set up fake company websites and they can hack your personal information from your computer within minutes, which makes relationships with people in this country complicated and dangerous. That is why conducting background checks is an important precaution and a safe way to establish relationships and reduce the possibilities of being victim.

The following summary was put together by our Russia PI team, and is a compilation of situations where a background check will help you make better decisions and be successful in Russia.

Relationships in Russia

Professional background checks and verification services should be considered as a prudent and safe form or insurance when dating online.  Russia is famous for having crime rings operating in the country specifically dedicated to online dating scams. Scammers will gain the victim’s trust after “casually” meeting on a dating website. These fraudsters will put a lot of time and effort to lure foreigners to send money, goods or even information that can be valuable and profitable for them. Verifying if the person you are in communication with is a criminal is part of your prevention kit and not part of your disaster recovery strategy. In other words, consider a background check in the beginning.

Hiring in Russia

There are many reasons why employers conduct employment screenings, but the most relevant are related to employee fraud. The purpose of an employment background check investigation is to uncover if there is any false or misleading information in a candidate’s resume. It might seem easy to call a former employer or a higher education institution to request references when you hire locally. But how do you manage to do a verification in Russia when you don´t speak the language? You might not be familiar with the culture, the education system and the right authorities of the country and this will likely lead you to making a mistake.  When you want to recruit people from Russia, you will need local investigators in Moscow to conduct the proper background check investigation for you.

Doing business and investing in Russia

Information can be easily manipulated online. Russian internet fraudsters are experts at creating fake websites and this is one of the easiest ways to steal money. It is sometimes hard to tell apart a real website from a fake one.  Ask a professional to check that for you. In most cases, getting the facts you need and verifying a company in Russia, or checking to see if a factory or office really exists, requires the support of a private investigator with access to local information and to the proper authorities. Getting engaged in any business without proper verification can cost you a lot of money and ultimately can cause bankruptcy. Background checks by professional investigators keep you safe, and are worth the investment.  Doing business with a fraud and be a very costly experience.
