What methods are recommended for establishing a cover story?

What will be an ideal response?


The officer’s appearance and mannerisms should also fit the cover story. If the officer claims to be an oil field worker, for example, it might be out of character for the officer to be seen by the suspect in an expensive business suit. On the other hand, if the officer’s cover story is that of financier for a big money deal, then expensive clothing might be more appropriate.
