How to Detect Hidden Camera in Trial Room?

In front of the trial room take your mobile and make sure that mobile can make calls. Then enter into the trail room, take your mobile and make a call. If u can't make a call, there is a hidden camera.
This is due to the interference of fiber optic cable during the signal transfer.


HOW TO DETECT A 2-WAY MIRROR?

When we visit toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc., How many of you know for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wall is a real mirror, or actually a 2-way mirror I.e., they can see you, but you can't see them. There have been many cases of people installing 2-way mirrors in female changing rooms or bathroom or bedrooms.

It is very difficult to positively identify the surface by just looking at it. So, how do we determine with any amount of certainty what type of Mirror we are looking at?

CONDUCT THIS SIMPLE TEST:

Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is a GENUINE mirror.

However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then BEWARE, IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR! (There may be someone seeing you from the other side). So remember, every time you see a mirror, do the "fingernail test." It doesn't cost you anything. It is simple to do.

This is a really good thing to do. The reason there is a gap on a real mirror, is because the silver is on the back of the mirror UNDER the glass.

Whereas with a two-way mirror, the silver is on the surface. Keep it in mind! Make sure and check every time you enter in hotel rooms.

Share this with your sisters, wife, daughters, friends, colleagues, etc.

Ur effort 2 educate us (especially the ladies) is really commendable but i guess this is just incase the ladies find themselves  places other than Qatar, for the probability of having a hidden camera or a two way mirrow in public places in qatar is zero... good job all the same

Why the hell would anyone make two way mirrors here in any public place? This is Qatar for heavens sake..  Maybe these kind of things happen in places like Phillipines, Thailand etc but not here..
