One picture from your home posted on social media every bad-guy can get your home address.
Whether you like it or not, social media is very much entrenched in our daily lives and it’s not just for entertainment. It has become a vital tool for individuals to beef up their professional life and businesses use them as an indispensable marketing tool.
An anonymous phone is where no one will have your number and you will never make or receive a call from that number. Want one?
Most celebrities and high-profile clients already have a home phone number and a cell phone number, but in today’s day and age, it might be to their advantage to get an anonymous phone.
An anonymous phone can have many benefits and advantages that their other personal numbers do not have. It’s easy to get an anonymous phone and if they don’t already have one and there’s no better time to get one than now.
In the digital age, anyone can find almost any information on a person. After all, the phrase “Facebook stalking” is very common. It means finding information about someone using their Facebook. While this information can be harmless, like finding out if they have a pet, it can be used to find their address or phone number.
High net worth individuals and celebrities need to think twice about having their address on the internet.
Rich people tend to spare no expense when it comes to keeping their lives private and secure. However, all the money in the world, expensive panic rooms, and bodyguards cannot give them the privacy and confidentiality they need to live their regular lives.
Privacy and safety are linked to one another. For example, if you’re a celebrity, you don’t want vicious “fans” finding where you live and coming to your home to exact any type of physical or emotional harm.
When traveling abroad, it’s important for everyone to plan ahead. However, this is especially true for Chinese billionaires. If you’re a Chinese billionaire, businessman, or another high-net-worth individual, you’ll need to do some pre-planning, which includes retaining high-level protection.
Many clients make the same mistake: contacting us for executive protection after a threat has already been made. Those with celebrity status or high-net-worth individuals should always consider their privacy and confidentiality to prevent threats from being made in the first place.
Just this month, Tushar Atre, a California-based tech executive, was fatally shot after he was abducted from his home. According to MSN, Atre, the founder and CEO of AtreNet Inc, was kidnapped during a crime that took place at his home on October 1st. The police previously suspected that the motive was robbery, although there have been no updates on the case since.
Unfortunately, billionaires and celebrities are always at risk for kidnappings. Their family members are also frequent targets used for criminals to get ransom money. Here’s how we can prevent these kidnappings. We highly recommend to our clients to have kidnapping and ransom insurance especially if they travel to high kidnapping countries.
Protecting your privacy is a necessary task when you are traveling in the US. Chinese billionaires may hire a security firm to guard them while they are on business. However, these bodyguards don’t have the knowledge or the skills to protect their client’s privacy.
As a Chinese Billionaire, you may be at risk when traveling in the US. Letting the public know where you are at all times may be a bad idea. Consider someone who normally wouldn’t bother going through the effort of tracking you down. If you happen to post your whereabouts online, you can trigger their desire to come and pay you a visit.
When it comes to protecting a Chinese billionaire, protection agents are often tasked with also protecting their family members. Young people, such as the billionaire’s children have a naiveness and enjoy flaunting their wealth. What many clients don’t realize is that it’s often necessary to have protection agents with their children, especially when they are in a new country.

When we at WPG protect our clients, we first built trust. This is true, especially for those from another country. There will always be cultural differences and trust issues. Right now, the US is in a trade war with China, so there’s already a lack of trust that Chinese billionaires have when visiting the states.
Trust doesn’t always come easy. It builds over a while if done right. When we start interacting and working with high-net-worth individuals from China, building trust is the most critical part of our initial stages of protection. They have to trust us, and everything that we’re doing is for their best interest in protecting their privacy, confidentiality, and of course, their physical wellbeing.
