(No identifiers are listed. If you recognize yourself here, correct the situation for the future. Courtesy of Polygraph Examiners Of America, www.peoa.US )

Complaint 1. Polygraph took client's money, gave opposite results that other examiners gave on same questions, then refused to give a written report. Then examinee admitted things to client that would not have allowed  examinee to 'pass' if she had been tested using Client's questions.
APA member: YES
Recent past complaints: YES
Examiner gender: F

Summary per Client: Client's spouse failed tests issued by two examiners. Client and Examinee went to a third examiner. Client returned, when asked how his spouse did, Examiner 'shared a knowing look' with Examinee then said "She passed".

A written report was asked for, was told no, yet Examiner does issue written reports.

Follow-up per Client : Examinee admitted to Client things that would not have allowed examinee to 'pass' if she had been legitimately tested using Client's questions.

Increase in calls looking for a 'guaranteed pass' exam

Perhaps it is the hot weather, but there is a noticeable increase in calls looking for a 'guaranteed pass' exam. Almost always it is for  a cheating or relationship exam.

Recent area codes include 213, 310, 323, 404, 805, 909, and 917. One claimed to already have an agreed-in-advance pass from one examiner-- but he was looking for an examiner that would take a lower bribe!

Secret list revealing which type of callers are least likely to actually hire a polygraph examiner!

All calls from potential clients are taken seriously. But busy Examiners can value the following statistical data.

PEOA's 200 websites typically receive dozens of calls per day for examiners nationwide. Approximately 70% of all callers actually have an exam conducted within 30 days of their call. Careful records for many years are maintained as to details of the each intake call and to its follow-up. A lengthy detailed list of which type of callers actually hired vs those that were just time-wasters is sent each year to PEOA members; here is just a few pieces from the list. All callers are important, but which are least-likely to actually become a client that month?

Partial list of caller-types of which less than 10% actually have an exam conducted that month:
1. Callers from blocked numbers.
2. Callers who ask 'Is there a charge for the exam?"
3. Callers where the caller is crying.
4. Requestors who send a lengthy e-mail about their situation instead.
5. Callers where a baby can be heard crying in the background.
6. Callers that introduce themselves as 'Mister' _____ .
7. Callers who say that they are calling for a friend.
8. Callers that call-back several times the same day.
9. Callers that call from one phone number but ask you to call them at another phone number.
10. Very-late-night callers.
11. Callers who say "Price is no object" (usually just trying to scare nearby girlfriend)
12-23. (On list available to participating PEOA members only)

Of even more value is the list of caller-types of which 80% or better actually had an exam conducted that month. This allows that more phone time could actually be spent on these proven usually more-likely serious clients. That list is only available to participating PEOA members.
