It sounds like it belongs in the hard boiled detective novels of Raymond Chandler, but spying on spouses is on the increase as more suspicious partners invest in spy cameras and surveillance equipment.

Suspicious minds and Spy Cameras

Infidelity, affairs, betrayal - most people at some point in their lives have been cheated on, or suspected their partners of cheating. And for some, it may sound like obsessive stalking, but investing in spy cameras can be the best way to accumulate proof and find peace of mind.

Spy cameras can be easily hidden from sight, making them ideal surveillance equipment, although when spy cameras are used to spy on private lives, there have to be concerns. Some officials in China expressed worries that spy cameras could be abused when it comes to secret filming. In Taiwan, spy cameras shot into the public eye when a spy camera was used to film a politician having sex with a married lover. Secret filming with spy cameras has also fuelled scandals in America as celebrities have been caught in compromising positions - the film maker than profiteers selling the film illegally.

Spy Camera Craze - CCTV Schemes

But such concerns didn't stop the craze in China when one retailer sold over 400 spy cameras in just one month.

The scheme uses 'talking' CCTV cameras in an attempt to tackle anti-social behaviour - but many feel these spy cameras are a step too far for the nation's civil liberties.
