Youssef Maggot aka Michael Joseph aka MJ is the only person who runs and works at Blue Systems International so I will use his name and the name of his company interchangeably throughout this review. This may seem a bit personal, but for all intents and purposes, Youssef Maggot and Blue Systems International are one and the same. In my dealings with Blue Systems International, I dealt only with Youssef Maggot and no one else. I hired Youssef Maggot for a simple background on a person. He got me to pay him in advance. Once he collected my payment, he immediately stopped answering my phone calls and emails. Before his disappearance, he described himself as an "honest muslim" but also claimed that he still had not deposited my check even though I could see online that it had already cleared my bank account. Not too good of a lie for a PI. After about two weeks without being able to get in touch with him, I contacted the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services, the licensing agency for private investigators in California. As soon as he found out about that, he called me immediately and told me that because I complained, he won't give me the report he supposedly had already prepared for me. According to him, if I had waited a bit longer and hadn't filed a complaint on him, he would've sent it to me no problem. He also submitted a bogus invoice to the regulator for made up consultations and for the background report in question that he claimed to have sent to me. I will upload a copy of that invoice with this review. About eight months after he conducted that scam, he filed a response to my report on him to the BBB. In his response, he claimed that my request for the background report for which I hired him was "illegal", so he didn't have to do any work (and according to his logic, I guess, could just keep the money). He also claimed to have reported me to the FBI for having made that request and said "you are more than welcome to verify [it]". To which I say, yes, I'd like to verify that, what is the name and phone number of the FBI agent that he spoke with? Anyway, the guy is a crook and I advise anyone who might even consider hiring him not to do it. Also, please take a look at the images I uploaded with this review. read more

I just needed to run a simple background check, but it ended up with complete investigation :) I didn't want to spend too much money for this type of service honestly, because I didnt know that to expect, but after consultation with PI I have realized that I can loose much more, and I will not able to fix the situation in future. Just wanted to advice everybody - be afraid of internet scams, never send money anyone who you don't know, don't believe that they saying. Its always better to check first, then to be sorry later. I would like to thank leader detective MJ again, - thank you that didn't let me be fooled again. read more

A totally professional company, I have been very pleased with the level of communication, both during the initial information gathering phase with me and during the ongoing investigation phase in the field. Mr Joseph keeps you in the decision making loop, letting you adjust the operation to meet your needs as things develop. He helps you stay withing the letter and spirit of the law as well as helping you stay on budget by offering comprehensive discussions of the pros and cons of various approaches and services. read more

Fraud!!!! Fraud!!!!! Fraud!!!! This man took advantage of my father who is elderly, mentally and physically ill. After we confronted him and told him he was not well he continued to ask him for money. He took almost $20k from my dying father. Money he worked so hard for. He lied to him and gave false accusations just to get more money. He's a horrible and disgusting human being. We have already contacted our attorneys and the police department. Please don't be another one of his victims. read more
