In January 2008, D & K's Managing Director Mr Kyle Condon was approached by the Husband of a fairly well known socialite. During their meeting, the man whom we shall refer to as "Rob" opened up and told Kyle that he suspects his wife of two years of having an affair.

Rob explained that due to his various business commitments, he would often be out of the country and that it was during these trips that he suspected his Wife of "foul play". This is certainly not an uncommon scenario for the Investigators at D & K Management Consultants, and therefore our response was fairly simple. We suggested placing his wife under surveillance for a three day period while he was away on his next trip. This happened to take place two week later.

Rob left for Ireland on a Tuesday afternoon in early February, and as a greed our Surveillance team commenced with their project. Well Robs plane had hardly left the tarmac of OR Thambo Airport when his wife was heading straight to the Vaal River. She was tailed to the Riviera Sun Hotel on the banks of the Vaal River. Some quick initiative and a crafty cover story enabled our two (20 man team to book a room directly below the room taken by our "wondering" subject, who was later "surprise surprise" joined by a male companion.

While these two spent the next two nights cavorting on their patio, sipping on endless cocktails and laughing uncontrollably just like young lovers, our team snapped away taking numerous photographs and video clips.

Upon our clients return, he was presented with the evidence and his suspicions were confirmed. The client chose to handle the matter in his own way and left. We do not know the outcome, but do know one thing, there would be no more fairytale meetings at the Vaal for Miss Infidelity in the future.

In October 2006 D & K Management Consultants received a mandate from one of our large corporate clients to undertake a discreet Investigation into the suspected fraudulent activities of one of their accounts ladies.

As is standard procedure, we set about discreetly gathering as much information on and about our suspect. Once we had completed this phase, we were able to show our client there was enough reason to launch a full Criminal Investigation. After three (3) weeks we had our suspect with enough evidence to lay formal criminal charges against her for fraud amounting to R2.4 Million.

How was she doing it?

Quite simply, infact what our devious lady was doing was phoning up selected clients and informing them that her company was offering 20% discount on accounts paid before the end of the given month, her story was that her company was suffering with cash flow and that was why they required earlier payment. She would then provide a "new" account number into which payments should be made, no prize for guessing whose account it was!

Her trial is currently underway, and we await the courts decision (unfortunately our justice system does not move as quickly as D & K's Investigators do).

More recently we were able to crack open and expose a syndicate of thieves operating from within a large Engineering Company on the East Rand. After receiving information from two of our undercover operators we had placed in the company as cleaners, we stopped and searched a waste collection contractors vehicle. Under the drivers seat and in the passengers coffee flasks we found seven copper bars that they were trying to smuggle off the site! The driver confessed and exposed two employees employed by our client.

Both men were successfully dismissed and the contractors company offered to pay for all costs incurred by our client.
