Stalking investigation: identifying a stalker and gathering evidence
Santos Recherchebureau helps stalking victims by uncovering the identity of a (often anonymous) stalker and carefully documenting the pattern of unwanted contact: evidence you can use for a police report or legal proceedings.
Unknown messages, someone who keeps ‘coincidentally’ turning up, a feeling of constantly being watched. Stalking undermines your sense of safety. We bring structure and evidence to a situation that often feels chaotic and frightening.
Common signs
- Repeated, unwanted contact by phone, email or social media
- Someone conspicuously appearing in your surroundings
- Anonymous messages or accounts that seem to reference you
- A growing sense of being unsafe or controlled by someone else
How we work
Our investigation focuses on pattern recognition and evidence-building:
- Dynamic and static surveillance, using our own camera systems where needed, to document patterns
- Digital forensic research to trace anonymous accounts, within the law
- A structured timeline and case file for a police report or court case
- Advice on next steps, in consultation with police and/or a lawyer

Frequently asked questions
Shouldn't I just go to the police?
In case of immediate danger, always contact the police first (112 / 0900-8844). Santos Recherchebureau often works alongside this: we help gather and structure evidence, which can strengthen a police report or court case.
Can you identify an anonymous stalker?
In many cases, within the legal framework, we can combine digital and physical traces to make a plausible identification. We discuss this openly during the intake.
Is stalking by an ex-partner also something you handle?
Yes, this is a common situation we support, often alongside legal advice.
How quickly can you start?
For urgent situations we try to respond as quickly as possible. Call us for an urgent intake.
