Just because hiding assets during a divorce is illegal in most states, that doesn't mean that the activity doesn't take place. In fact, it happens a lot. It's unfortunate, but there are a myriad of methods that your spouse can use, and that many do use, to try and hide assets during a divorce proceeding to lower your settlement amount. While divorce is generally a very negative time in your life, you still should try to get as much out of it, financially, as you can so that you can start your new life on the right foot.
In order for you to find assets that your spouse may be hiding from you, you need to understand some of the tactics that they might be using to hide those assets. Here are some common asset-hiding tactics that married individuals use to minimize the verifiable value of their marital assets.
Setting up new accounts / utilizing unused joint accounts
One common way, that is fortunately easy to identify, that your spouse may use to hide assets during a divorce is to either setup new accounts in their name, or to use abandoned joint accounts and to remove your name from them. Oftentimes, they'll slowly withdraw money from their bank accounts, skim some money off their paycheck each week, or deposit funds from the sale of property they own to build up their hidden account's balance.
Selling or 'giving away' property
Another method that your spouse could use to hide assets from you is to sell, or even give away, property to a person in whom they trust. What happens is that they give up the rights to the property, and then once the divorce is finalized, they can regain ownership of the property from their friend or associate.
Repayment of fictitious debts
If your spouse sees a divorce in the future, they may create a fictitious debt to repay to try to hide some money. This could be to a trusted friend or associate, which would work much like the previous point does, or they could even go as far as setting up a company, and paying into accounts owned by that company. It's unfortunate, but people can be exceedingly creative, and that oftentimes makes it more difficult to locate assets that they're trying to hide.
How to locate assets your spouse is trying to hide
Because there are scores, if not hundreds, of tactics that your spouse could use to hide assets from you during your divorce proceedings, you really need some professional help to locate those assets. The services you need are called asset searches, and they are usually available through an attorney, but will likely be cheaper through a private investigation firm that offers a reasonable fixed rate for asset searches and investigation. While you could 'play detective' and identify some hidden accounts on your own, in most cases, you'll need a comprehensive asset investigation on your spouse to locate all of the assets that they're trying to hide.
We only share a few of the many methods that your spouse can use to hide assets from you, and from your lawyer, during your divorce proceedings. If you think that your spouse could be hiding money or property from you, you owe it to yourself to look into it more -- it could make a big impact on your end-result divorce settlement.

Police Tapped Sprint Customer GPS Data 8 Million Times In A Year
Justin Elliott | December 4, 2009, 6:03PM
Under a new system set up by Sprint, law enforcement agencies have gotten GPS data from the company about its wireless customers 8 million times in about a year, raising a host of questions about consumer privacy, transparency, and oversight of how police obtain location data.
What this means -- and what many wireless customers no doubt do not realize -- is that with a few keystrokes, police can determine in real time the location of a cell phone user through automated systems set up by the phone companies.
And while a Sprint spokesman told us customers can shield themselves from surveillance by simply switching off the GPS function of their phones, one expert told TPM that the company and other carriers almost certainly have the power to remotely switch the function back on.
To be clear, you can think of there being two types of GPS (global positioning system). One is the handy software on your mobile device that tells you where you are and helps give driving directions. But there's also GPS capability in all cell phones sold today, required by a federal regulation so if you dial 911 from an unknown location, authorities can find you.
Sprint says the 8 million requests represent "thousands" of individual customers -- it won't say how many exactly -- and that the company follows the law. It's not clear, however, if warrants are always needed, or whether they have been obtained by police for all the cases.
We know the 8 million number thanks to an Indiana University graduate student named Christopher Soghoian, who has made headlines before for investigations of privacy and tech issues.
At a recent professional security conference attended -- and taped -- by Soghoian, Sprint Manager of Electronic Surveillance Paul Taylor revealed the 8 million figure. "[T]he tool has just really caught on fire with law enforcement," he said:
We turned it on the web interface for law enforcement about one year ago last month, and we just passed 8 million requests. So there is no way on earth my team could have handled 8 million requests from law enforcement, just for GPS alone. So the tool has just really caught on fire with law enforcement. They also love that it is extremely inexpensive to operate and easyIt's useful to keep in mind that, as Sprint spokesman Matt Sullivan tells TPM, "every wireless carrier has a team and a system" through which police can access GPS data. Sprint is the company unlucky enough to find itself the focus of scrutiny, but it reportedly controls just 18% of the U.S. wireless market, making it the third largest carrier.
Sprint says the 8 million figure "should not be shocking given that Sprint has more than 47 million customers and requests from law enforcement and public safety agencies" include missing person cases, criminal investigations, or cases with the consent of the customer. (Read the company's full statement here.)
Privacy advocates, though, are alarmed. "How many innocent Americans have had their cell phone data handed over to law enforcement?" asked Kevin Bankston, senior staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, in a lengthy response to the revelation. He goes on:
How can the government justify obtaining so much information on so many people, and how can the telcos justify handing it over? ...
What legal process was used to obtain this information? ...
What exactly has the government done with all of that information? Is it all sitting in an FBI database somewhere?
Bankston calls on Congress "to pull the curtain back on the vast, shadowy world of law enforcement surveillance and shine a light on these abuses."
Sullivan, the Sprint spokesman, tells TPM that for certain requests the police pay a fee to Sprint to cover costs. But it's not just a question of paying an entry fee to access the system; Sullivan says there's a legal process. "Before [law enforcement] can access any customer data, they have to show proper legal demand," and "the parameters of the information they can receive is extremely specific, including the duration they can look at it and the specific data."
It's not clear, according to EFF, that "proper legal demand" always means a search warrant.
Julian Sanchez of the Cato Institute has chimed in with a look at the current state of the relevant law, including the 2005 reauthorization of the PATRIOT act. He concludes that it's "quite likely that it's become legally easier to transform a cell phone into a tracking device even as providers are making it point-and-click simple to log into their servers and submit automated location queries."
Another key question: can customers disable the GPS on their wireless devices? Sprint's Sullivan says its his "understanding" that privacy settings on phones can be set to turn off GPS, in which case, he says, police trying to conduct surveillance would not be able to track a phone.
But Jeff Fischbach, a California-based forensic technologist who has been a technical consultant on many criminal cases over the years, tells TPM he's seen empirical evidence that the privacy settings are essentially meaningless. Again and again, he says, "I've seen GPS data from defendants who told me [the function] was switched off."
Saying there's nothing technically sophisticated about switching on GPS capability remotely, Fischbach observes that if it's really possible to switch off GPS on a phone, "it would almost be like saying license plates are optional."
We may be getting more answers soon. With buzz growing around Soghoian's report, first posted on his blog, Sprint has been forced to respond publicly. Fischbach believes it's only a matter of time before the company is forced to make more disclosures to the public.
"Sprint's going to have to calm people down," he says.

Cheaters Can't Hide From a Computer Forensic Examination
Extramarital activity is an unfortunate reality these days; nobody is immune to the devastation caused by a cheating partner. While there are a large number of marriages and partnerships with wholly committed individuals, for every truly committed relationship there are several where at least one partner is, in some way, sneaking around on the other. Today's technologies have created a bubble of sorts, allowing cheaters to carry on with their extramarital activities with what they think is complete privacy. However, what most cheaters do not know is that, even though they may think that their ways are well hidden, there are ways to uncover what it is that they've been up to.
A computer forensic examination can help you recover previously deleted data from a computer's hard drive. This 'deleted data' can include everything that has ever been stored on the computer -- images, videos, visited websites, emails, installed applications, and more. In some cases, a computer forensic expert may be able to piece together several years' worth of data that was supposedly deleted a long time ago. The main tools that cheaters use to hide their illicit activities allows them to clear their web browsing history, cookies, remove items from their recycle bin, and remove form data. Now, if you're not a computer expert, deleted files and histories might as well as be gone forever, you're not likely going to be able to recover them yourself. However, just because a file was deleted from a computer does not mean that it is gone forever.
When a file, a history item, an email, or anything else, is added to a computer hard drive, that data is there permanently until it is overwritten by new data. It may take weeks, months, or years for data to become 'unrecoverable', and this is how cheaters can be caught by computer forensic examination services. If your spouse or partner is using their computer to cheat on you, the technology is here that will help you to recover files that have been deleted from their computers.
Cheaters can continue to clean their web browsing history, deleting their emails, removing incriminating photos and videos. Fortunately, many cheaters and would-be cheaters think that this is enough for them to cover their tracks and to hide their illicit ways from you. While thinking that your spouse is cheating on you is hardly a positive situation, at least you have a way to catch them where they least expect it. Cheaters can cheat, but they can't hide from a computer forensic examination.

How to Recover Deleted Data to Uncover an Unfaithful Spouse
It is an all too common story -- a wife suspects that her husband is into all sorts of filth; pornography, illicit conversations, and who knows what else. A husband suspects that his wife is talking to another man, probably talking and texting on her cell phone, but certainly she's up to no good on her computer. One thing that they're both certain of, though, is that their spouse has covered their tracks quite well -- they leave no traces of their extramarital activities. Technology can be a wonderful thing, but when technology is used to instigate, and then subsequently hide, extramarital infidelity, it's an unfortunate byproduct of the times and the technology we have today. However, for you there is a little bit of good news -- there are ways to recover and undelete deleted data from your spouse's computer and cell phone.
DIY data recovery If you suspect that your spouse is using their computer to engage in extramarital activity, there are ways that you can go about trying to recover files, folders, images, and video that they have previously deleted. See, when a file is deleted from a computer, even after the recycle bin is emptied, the data really isn't gone -- it's just removed from your view; the data still exists on the hard drive. So, if your spouse is hiding something from you, but they're covering their tracks by deleting the incriminating evidence, you can likely still recover and undelete the deleted data to see what it is that they've been doing on their computer while you weren't around.
For the do-it-yourselfer, data recovery software is commercially available today; in fact, it's abundant online. It's not for the faint of heart, though, or for those who have limited technical expertise or limited time on their hands. While most consumer-oriented data recovery software is designed to be consumer-friendly, you still have to do your research before purchasing the software, and be able to run the software, extract the deleted data, and uninstall the software while your spouse is not around.
Cell phone data recovery Trying to recover and undelete deleted data from cell phones can be exorbitantly more complex than recovering deleted data from a PC. As you will need to attach the cell phone to a computer, you will need to have a USB cable that is specific to the phone you want to recover data from, and the software that will recover data from the cell phone's storage device. Because cell phones use different types of storage, data recovery software that you use on a computer will not necessarily work on a cell phone. If you want to pursue the DIY approach to cell phone data recovery, search Google for the cell phone brand, model number, and the terms, "data recovery", "restore deleted files", and so forth. As an example, if your spouse has a Nokia 5800 cell phone, you could try searching for: "Recover deleted data Nokia" "Restore deleted files Nokia 5800" As well as other related phrases. Just be sure to replace the brand and model with your spouse's phone, and remove the quotes before you search.
The easier option for recovering deleted data Even though there are options for you to recover deleted data on your own, it does not mean that this is the best approach for you. If you do not have the technical expertise, or you're afraid of being caught by your spouse while you are trying to uncover what they have been up to recently on their cell phone or computer, consider using computer or cell phone forensics service. Experts have the software, tools, and more importantly, the environment, to safely recover and undelete deleted data from computers and cell phones. Prices for these services have come down over the years, and a data recovery expert will likely be able to piece together deleted data that you would miss during the recovery process. Cheaters use technology to cheat, and they use it to hide traces of their extramarital activity. While unfortunate, we've listed two ways that you can find out what it is that your spouse is really hiding, regardless of whether they're using their cell phone, or computer, to engage in their extramarital activities.

Signs your spouse is having an extramarital affair - By: Ed Opperman
Extramarital infidelity can destroy a marriage. In fact, it has been the leading cause of divorce for quite some time. Even without "proof", the suspicion that your spouse may be having an extramarital affair can be heart wrenching. Because you know your spouse better than anybody else does -- you will know when your relationship is changing. Others may not be able to see it, but that is due to the fact that the changes oftentimes start out subtly.
If you suspect that your husband or wife may be having an extramarital affair, ask yourself the following questions:
-Has your spouse suddenly become distant?
-Does your spouse make excuses to be away from you?
-Has your spouse suddenly started taking on overtime?
-Has your spouse made plans that exclude your input or even involvement?
These are amongst the most common signs that your spouse may be having an extramarital affair. Now, these are far from the only telltale signs -- you may notice changes in daily routines, personal attitude, or in your spouse's lifestyle in general. Honestly, the best way to "know" when your spouse is cheating, even without proof, is by simply paying attention to what is going on in your marriage and with your spouse.
Computers can be a major problem for husbands and wives -- they offer a new, and largely anonymous, venue for their partners to converse with others. When you walk in the room and your spouse shuts down the computer suddenly, or tries to divert your attention from what they are doing -- this may indicate that your spouse is hiding something from you. Online dating sites, or "married but dating" suites have made it very easy to connect with other people in your local area or anywhere around the world.
One other sign that your spouse may be having an affair is their inability to keep track of their "stories" that they tell you. For instance -- ask your spouse what they are doing again, unexpectedly, as they are getting ready to leave. Ask them what they are planning on doing while you are gone -- you may be playing the part of the forgetful spouse, but those who are having an extramarital affair oftentimes will lose track of their lies at some point, and these lies can be indicative of a cheating partner.
Now, while these signs can indicate that your partner is having an extramarital affair, they are not concrete evidence that your spouse is involved in some form of extramarital infidelity. Before you confront your spouse, you should have solid evidence that there really is something going on, other than their suspicious behavior. After all, they are your partner, and a false accusation is not something that can be undone.
Learn from a PI the best way to deal with extrmarital activity.

Is Your Spouse Cheating on You? Here's How to Tell
Extramarital activity is at an all time high these days. Spouses are engaging in physical affairs with co-workers, people they meet online, and reconnecting with old lovers far too often. Infidelity statistics suggest that as many as 80% of marriages have one spouse who has, or will, engage in extramarital activity at least once during the course of their marriage. If you factor in non-sexual relationships, surveys suggest that this statistic is as high as 90%. With these things in mind, how can you tell if your spouse is cheating on you?
Trust your gut instinct In many cases, your gut instinct should be trusted. Maybe you don't see any signs that may indicate that your spouse is cheating on you, but if, deep down inside, you have this sick feeling in the pit of your stomach, this is something that you should listen to. It could be the air about them, the way they carry themselves, subtle changes in their attitude, or just a sense that they are different somehow. Do not ignore your internal instincts as studies suggest that they are right the majority of the time. Pay attention to their behavior.
Behavioral changes are one of the most prevalent signs displayed when somebody starts an extramarital relationship. Maybe they'll become moody, indifferent, overly-affectionate, sarcastic, or critical. Because people react differently in different scenarios, there isn't one single behavioral characteristic that signifies that your spouse is cheating on you. However, what is common is that your spouse's behavior will change one way or another. If they haven't been acting like themselves recently, especially if other signs of cheating are present, this is something you definitely want to look out for.
Pay attention to their activities If your spouse is cheating on you, it's likely that their activities or schedule has changed. For instance, maybe they'll take a sudden interest in physical fitness, maybe they'll start running errands at all hours of the day or night, or maybe they'll start putting in extra hours on the job. Whatever the case may be, the end result is usually the same -- they spend less time with you and more time somewhere else.
Now, it's important to understand that just because your spouse displays signs that they could be cheating on you, this does not mean that they are.
Furthermore, even if your gut is telling you that they are involved in some form of extramarital activity, this does not necessarily make it so. People go through changes, people have bad attitudes, and sometimes life just throws you a curve ball and when mixed with other factors in your life, you might behave in an unexpected manner. In other words, it's probably not a good idea to confront your spouse about cheating unless you have actual proof that they are, in fact, involved with somebody else.
If you think that your spouse is cheating on you, listen to your gut, and pay attention. If you still can't shake the feeling that something isn't right, hire a private investigator or use some kind of forensics services to dig into the situation a little bit deeper. While the feelings associated with thinking that your spouse may be cheating on you are terrible, to put it lightly, potentially ruining your relationship because you failed to get actual proof of infidelity before confronting your spouse is not something that you want to endure.

Trust your gut instinct In many cases, your gut instinct should be trusted. Maybe you don't see any signs that may indicate that your spouse is cheating on you, but if, deep down inside, you have this sick feeling in the pit of your stomach, this is something that you should listen to. It could be the air about them, the way they carry themselves, subtle changes in their attitude, or just a sense that they are different somehow. Do not ignore your internal instincts as studies suggest that they are right the majority of the time. Pay attention to their behavior.
Behavioral changes are one of the most prevalent signs displayed when somebody starts an extramarital relationship. Maybe they'll become moody, indifferent, overly-affectionate, sarcastic, or critical. Because people react differently in different scenarios, there isn't one single behavioral characteristic that signifies that your spouse is cheating on you. However, what is common is that your spouse's behavior will change one way or another. If they haven't been acting like themselves recently, especially if other signs of cheating are present, this is something you definitely want to look out for.
Pay attention to their activities If your spouse is cheating on you, it's likely that their activities or schedule has changed. For instance, maybe they'll take a sudden interest in physical fitness, maybe they'll start running errands at all hours of the day or night, or maybe they'll start putting in extra hours on the job. Whatever the case may be, the end result is usually the same -- they spend less time with you and more time somewhere else.

Times have certainly changed. In the past, women were concerned about their husbands having an affair with somebody at his work place, somebody he met at a bar, or worse yet -- him meeting up with a prostitute.
However, today there is a new avenue for men who wish to pursue relationships outside of their marital vows -- married and cheating websites. As if suspicious wives didn't have enough to contend with, now the internet flagrantly promotes websites that are specifically created to help married men, and women, cheat on their spouses. Married and cheating websites are part of the growing trend of adult-themed websites that cater exclusively to men and women who want to sneak around on their partner.
Unfortunately, the internet is as liberal as the people are who use it, and there are no taboos online -- you are free to do whatever you want, with whomever you want, with relative anonymity. Well, at least at least those with shameful secrets would like to think that their online escapades are anonymous. The good news here, though, for suspicious wives is that your husbands, if they are using married and cheating websites, are not quite as anonymous as they think they are.
See, a cheater who uses the internet to engage in extramarital activity probably knows how to cover their tracks on their own computer. The probably know how to delete cookies, clear their web browser history, and maybe they even know how to permanently erase files so that they cannot be retrieved with readily available data recovery software.
However, what most cheating husbands do not realize is that there are ways to monitor, and identify, their activity on third-party websites -- specifically websites that cater to married but cheating husbands and wives.Online investigation services are exceptionally adept at not only being able to locate the online profiles of a cheating spouse, but to piece together a composite of activity that a cheating spouse has committed on the internet. Even if your husband is what you would consider a computer expert, unless he is very lucky, or he understands the nuances of online infidelity investigations and how they compile their information, there is a good chance that you will be able to catch your husband, especially if he is using a married and cheating website.
If you are like most women, probably the only thing more gut wrenching than knowing that your husband is talking to, or seeing, another woman romantically is suspecting that he is cheating on you, but not really knowing for sure. For your own peace of mind and sanity, if you suspect that your husband may be using married but cheating websites, hire an online investigator so that you can finally put your suspicions to rest for good.
