BlueSleuth-Pro™ Bluetooth and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) device locator is a dedicated handheld receiver that scans, identifies and locates and nearby BT and BLE devices including hidden card skimmers, BLE beacons and hidden personal trackers (including unregistered tags) such as Apple’s AirTags that threaten safety and privacy. BlueSleuth-Pro includes a direction finding antenna for real time RSSI (dBm) of bluetooth and BLE devices allowing users to pinpoint their location without having to visually inspect for tiny, hidden rogue devices. BlueSleuth-Pro rapidly scans all 2.4 GHz BT and BLE signals using advanced algorithmic scan intervals, allowing users to white list friendly known devices and then locate unknown devices using the built-in direction finding antenna. Audio, vibration and even voice alerts allow users to scan for all suspicious devices without having to continually interact with the unit.

Police Records Show Women Are Being Stalked With Apple AirTags Across the Country.

BlueSleuth-Pro™ is the only dedicated Bluetooth and BLE receiver available that can instantly identify and locate hidden personal trackers including AirTags, Galaxy Smart Tags, Tile Trackers, Chipolo, PebbleBee and more. According to a report by Motherboard, 150 police reports specifically mentioning AirTags mostly involve stalking and harassment complaints while the remaining involve tracking and theft of stolen property. In many cases, victims received notifications that they were being tracked by an unknown AirTag several hours or even days after it had already begun. And the nearly 3 billion Android users worldwide do not even receive stalking alerts unless they have installed and launched a specific app that scans for AirTags. BlueSleuth-Pro™ can be used effectively by security teams, bodyguards, executive protections and law enforcement to ensure that clients and citizens are not being stalked or tracked by anyone. Learn more about how BLE tags are being used to stalk and track.

Since giant tech companies such as Apple and Samsung operate these global BLE tracker networks, they encrypt location data and hide unknown tracking alerts behind complex algorithms that require legal warrants for law enforcement and sometimes days until users are alerted. This gap between illegal activity and actionable data is too long for any law enforcement or private security forces to effectively act upon. Personal BLE trackers are also being used to track illegal packages being shipped all around the globe. Bypassing USPS and private carriers allow criminals to track packages including illegal guns and drugs without risk of interception from law enforcement. BlueSleuth-Pro can identify and pinpoint an active tracker inside a package among a warehouse full of unopened packages.

Vehicle theft and home invasions are also on the rise due to the simplicity of tiny, personal trackers that can hidden on any vehicle to alert thieves where a vehicle is parked and even when the owner has left their home unattended. Traditional GPS trackers require subscriptions and have limited battery life compared to this new breed of personal trackers which can be placed anywhere and track for a year. AirTags modified to silence audible alerts have been appearing on Ebay and Etsy making it even easier to violate someone’s privacy. Thieves and hackers have even begun tracking police and government vehicles in order to keep tabs on all enforcement and avoid arrest.

According to FICO, card skimming fraud has exploded in 2022. BlueSleuth-Pro allows law enforcement, skimmer fraud task forces, weights and measures service agents and owners/managers/operators of gas stations, banks and retailers to detect hidden bluetooth card skimmers instantly. By performing regular scans and audits of all POS payment terminals, ATMs, gas pumps, vending machines and any kiosks, owners can ensure safe and secure shopping for their customers while avoiding lengthy shutdowns during fraud and insurance investigations by authorities. Using a dedicated tool such as BlueSleuth-Pro can save hours of tedious searching through gas pumps, ATMs, kiosks and other mag stripe payment terminals for hidden bluetooth card skimmers. BlueSleuth-Pro automatically identifies and alerts users to known skimmer device IDs in wide use such as HC-05, FREE2MOVE and HC-08. BlueSleuth-Pro also allows users to investigate other unknown devices and even nearby criminals that wirelessly connect to these devices to retrieve the stolen credit card data. Learn about the growing problem of card skimmers from our e-Paper.

BlueSleuth-Pro can also be used to detect distracting or illegal contraband Bluetooth and BLE devices that can violate a “NO WIRELESS ZONE” policy and pose serious security threats to government, military and law enforcement facilities. Unlike consumer smartphones and apps, BlueSleuth-Pro receiver and (omni and directional) antenna systems have been developed to locate rogue distant Bluetooth signals originating outside the physical security perimeter. This makes BlueSleuth-Pro ideal for for TSCM (Technical Surveillance CounterMeasures) professionals and the best (and sometimes only) method for detecting a range of wireless devices used for illegal skimming, tracking, stalking and theft.
