A private investigator has spilled details on how she discovered an unfaithful man was having a secret affair through Flybuys.
Cassie Crofts, who runs a licensed private investigation service called Venus Investigations, was hired to uncover the truth after the man’s wife grew suspicious of his frequent trips, which he claimed were to visit his ‘family’.
The couple lived in Queensland but the wife knew something wasn’t right when her husband regularly travelled to NSW.
The only detail she noticed in their joint bank account was his random trips to Coles and Bunnings, but she had no other information to prove he was a cheater.
However, the penny dropped when the wife began scouring their Flybuys transaction history and realised where her husband had been all along.
Each transaction showed the exact suburb where he had been shopping.
The suburb turned out to be the same area where the husband’s ex-girlfriend lived.
‘This case was wild,’ Cassie said in her video, with the caption: ‘$10 off your shop, but a very expensive divorce.’

The private investigator explained how she was working with her client, the wife, to work out how her husband was cheating.
‘We were pretty sure he was doing it,’ Cassie explained.
‘They lived in Queensland and he was going on these trips to see his family in NSW, pretty regularly which he never used to do.
‘So she checked their joint bank account, there were stuff on there like Coles and Bunnings but we don’t know where that was happening. We don’t have any details of who was there so it didn’t really help us.’
So, Cassie suggested the wife check their joint rewards accounts for any clues.
‘I said to her was, ‘Got any joint rewards accounts like Everyday Rewards or Flybuys, that kind of thing?’ And they had Flybuys,’ she said.
‘So we opened the app, and right there were all the transactions – Coles, Kmart, Bunnings – showing the suburb where he had been shopping.
‘It just so happened that the suburb was in Queensland, where his ex-girlfriend lives.’

By looking at the tiny details in the transaction history, they realised the husband was never in NSW, but was actually visiting his ex-girlfriend, who lived in the same state as them.
‘Bro gave it up for a few extra rewards,’ Cassie said.
She added: ‘For a lot of people, they find it hard to trust their instincts without proof even when all the signs are there.
‘A little evidence gives them the push to take action.’
The detail was enough to confirm the wife’s suspicions were right all along.
Her video has been viewed more than 63,000 times, with one sharing they used the same method to discover their partner’s affair: ‘Nailed it! I caught mine the same way.’
One man said his e-tag tolling account uncovered his partner’s unfaithful act.
‘My Linkt account caught my ex cheating,’ he said.
One person joked: ‘Hope she kept the points.’
‘I am this level of petty,’ another added.
Meanwhile, many said they wished they’d known about the trick.
‘I needed you years ago, approximately eight years ago. I wish on my heart I knew about private investigators. I wish I knew,’ one said, along with a crying emoji.
