How do you know if you have been bugged? i.e. house, car, phone?
My friend thinks an ex is either following her or having her followed. Is there a way to know if your car has a GPS tracking device? What about scanning your house? Who can do that? Is there a way to check your phone?

Unless the suspect has access to her car, it is not going to be easy to place a GPS tracker. You could check anyplace that a magnet might be able to be attached. There are GPS trackers that attach via a magnet, and can be retrieved to download the data. It would have to be in a place that can get a pretty decent view of the sky to get any acurate information. Realtime GPS tracking is not cheap, and I suspect out of the cost range of your typical stalker.
As far a bugging the house, check out spyville.com, they have several bug/tap detectors, but I don’t know how effective they really are. I think the cheap ones really just look for an off the hook extension, and many cordless phones do this. (They check for a voltage change, the same way that your answering machine does when you pick up an extension.) I’m sure there are professional security people that can come in and scan your house, but I bet they are really expensive.
Check out Spyville.com. They have a good selection of bugs, and bug dectectors. If you look at the bugs, you will have an idea what to look for to do a manual inspection.
