Unusual background checks from Temecula to Timbuktu

The doctorate in Oxford.

A client asked us time to verify that a young employee exists that was promoted and transferred to the company. This employee was required to update your vital information in a form. On the form, she said she had a doctorate in international human resources at the University of Oxford – The Oxford UK. The employer said it was strange that she does not mention that when she applied for a $ 7 advertising sales within an hour of work two years earlier. The client asked us to check.

Was faxed the most and I looked at the demand and in seconds, I knew that the plaintiff had lied. I called the customer and told them that would save the cost of a check Internationally, I know he's lying. "I said. "How can you say?" Questions. "Because she said she attended Lady Margaret Hall (College) in Oxford and said Margaret evil. Any person with a doctorate from Oxford does not mean college name wrong. Of course, we went through of the motions and asked Oxford and found that LMH does not offer a degree in human resources. He could have chosen another college in Oxford to lie about. Think it. It has been promoted, and she has always lied.

The nurse in Uganda

This happened recently. A New York woman called and asked me if we could do a forensic audit of a man from Uganda who had intended to hire as a nanny for their children small. I asked, "Why?" She asked what he meant by that? I told him: "Why – you hire someone a place where there is rule of law, judicial review where I could get is not worth the paper it is written and if that person originates from a region that is the home of AIDS. "What do you think?" I asked. I was being polite. I really thought I was out of his mind. Now I know what I said was not politically correct, but true. She said: "Maybe you're right." I felt it was the first sensible, practical person who had talked about it. I asked fatherly advice instead of checking criminal records, but hey, I'm a nice guy.

The Pool Digger

A child with a local company has ordered an investigation into an employee who had already hired and began digging pits with a backhoe. At that time, our office was in Temecula, California, and the new worker digging swimming pools in Palm Springs, about two hours away. It took several days to obtain the records from a manual search of Utah, where the worker had lived before and to our surprise, the employee was wanted for escaping from prison in the rural county Utah. There was also a registered sex offender in Utah. Importantly, this occurred in 1995, before using the Internet. Everything was done by phone and fax, and has been much slower.

I immediately called the customer with the great news. Now normally, we provide information, and is the responsibility of client to act accordingly. In this case, I offered to find out what the client should be used with this "dangerous". I asked an assistant if the mine her husband, who was a sheriff in Riverside County, could lead to Palm Springs and stop. We found that this does not work like that. They must serve a jurisdiction in Utah, and could take days. I thought the member may obtain credit "extra" or something to arrest a wanted bad. I guess I watch too much television.

I telephoned the office of District Attorney of that county in Utah, but there was no response to my call. Then he called the office of County Sheriff and talked to the sheriff. (Think Andy Mayberry here.) I said I called the office of district attorney, but no answer. He said all were outside the fishery. I asked him if he knew, the form of the pool and he said yes. I said, "Well, come get him. It's Palm Springs. I'll get the address for you. "To which he replied:" We do not want him. If you're in Palm Springs are not bothering people here. "" You can not do that, I say. "Hell, I can not," he said. Then proceeded to tell me you were a small town and that the extradition will take place a mountain of paperwork (which he was unwilling to do), then they have to send someone in California to collect the prisoner, his sorry a ** e back to Utah, then the county would have to pay to keep him in jail for years to come. In fact, he made the province a great service and save a lot of money by not getting.

However, my client, the company of the pool is in a state of panic. Remember this is before we were on the Internet. I had the directory assistance and found that a bail bondsman in Utah County. He called me and asked if we tried this excavator of the pool. Were. The guarantor in Utah has requested the address pool charger was working and said: "We have to go get guys in about 2 hours."

I can not tell you how many times the previous history was education for me. It is the government par excellence vs. private sector. Government moves very slowly in the mountains great expense of paperwork, while the private sector do the job better, faster, cheaper.

The murderer wanted

We a background check for a client who has hired dozens of people a month. The client has operated a call center and quickly learned that for some reason telemarketing, have a disproportionate amount of criminal records of the general population. Imagine that.

The case returned to an applicant that the audit and low and behold, the person who was wanted in the county of Los Angeles for the murder. I called the customer to inform us immediately. She said it was strange I called at the time because he, the author was waiting in the waiting room to see. I was really scared.

I called the police in their city and explained the situation and told me to tell the client that would take some time to address the mandate that she was dropping out and let them go home, thinking it would be begin work on a couple of days and that would leave at home the weekend so as not to put anyone in danger to customers. Incidentally, the police had to ask my address the man that can come to arrest him.

The Ballistic Nurse

It happened the day of the bloody glove in the OJ Simpson trial, 15 June 1995, a day that will always remember.

We were the projection of a nurse in a hospital in southern California. Superior Court County of Los Angeles sent us the wrong information about the criminal investigation. A search by name, but do not overlap date of birth or Social Security number and said that the purpose of our criminal background check was a prostitute drug trafficking that had made several arrests and convictions. We subsequently reported this false information to our customer. (FYI: this is the only documented case of my company makes a mistake in a report of criminal records.) Where the applicant nurse had his job was was terminated ballistic. The client later told me he was screaming, shouting, angry, cursing and threatening trials worldwide.

Immediately review the records and quickly found the error. But even if we have been wrong, the client does not hire a nurse. He showed his "true face" by the delirium and screaming. She was escorted by security and in no uncertain terms not want her to stay in the hospital again. The client asked us if there is anything we can find for them the angle legal battle to terminate their employment. Dig a little more and found it had extended its record of employment into employment 90 days at another hospital, where she was fired. Because he lied by omission in its request that the offer was rescinded.

Timbuktu

Let me say first that I always wanted to do a background check to Timbuktu I can only honestly say that we have found the people around the world from Temecula to Timbuktu. This happened only last few weeks and led to the drafting of this article. A gentleman emailed and asked if we could extract a person and his company in Timbuktu, Mali in Africa, West.

If you are not familiar with Timbuktu is a real place at the end desert southwest Sahara and certainly one of the most remote corners of the earth. Think of the outpost of the French Foreign Legion in the desert, with caravans passing through camels. I read somewhere recently that boasted 400-line telephone and Internet 2. Wow!

I tell the client that because they have never done anything in Mali, which is to check and see what is available and how long it would take, so I'm one the few experts in the U.S. in controls of international precedents. People contact me all the time asking how to get the records from distant lands. When even I can understand how to get the records of a call to the U.S. embassy in places this country. In general, we can find solutions from there.

I can not say anything more specific about the subject, but we can say were surprisingly able to get quality information quickly found another scam in West Africa on the Internet involving gold dust and probably saved tens of thousands of dollars from clients.

The Look Good

A client requested a criminal and credit check on each new employee. We have been monitoring a new employee and a month after the employee called me and said he was the new Director of Human Resources. He walked to the policies and procedures and wanted to ask questions about background checks. She asked me if I make a credit report was worth the cost "and" What can you really say about a credit report?

I said, "Let me tell about yourself. "I did it only for the memory of its report a month earlier. I said," You are unique, more than 31 years, you are a college graduate, 're from New England originally, you live in a condo rental, you drive a Toyota or Nissan modest price and you are alone and beautiful. "She said," Wait a moment how can you say that? He explained that most of those who guess on my part, but saw his wife in the list, I saw some student loans, an SS #, which began with 1, auto loans and the numbers in his address said that she lived in a condominium. "And the best part: I asked" There is no way one can say that a credit report. "He told me that I realized that I had a credit card with a credit line of $ 1000 to Victoria Secret and I know that in general, ugly women do not shop there, so it should be fine.
