It does work ! <| sep |> Pro tip if you have to keep coming back to a fixed residence and aren ' t planning on fleeing the country , in many ways it ' s best if you don ' t even bother looking for it for your own peace of mind . What are you going to do , scream for help because you thought somebody looked at you funny ? How are you going to shake them when even the crappiest PI knows exactly where you work and live ? Nobody on God ' s green Earth is going to believe you if you start getting hysterical about I think a group of people are following me ! ! and you ' ll end up letting your own imagination drive you clean out of your own skull . Being aware of your surroundings is essential to anyone in a sensitive position , but it ' s important not to get hypervigilant about something you absolutely can ' t control . If a professional surveillance team wants to follow you , they ' re going to follow you . The main thing is to make sure you ' re never in a position to get shoved in an open car or the back of a van .
