Being caught in an act?


What would be the proper way to phrase such an action, particularly in a
casual way? Say, the phrase “Oh, I guess you caught me.” How might a native
speaker say this? I know in a criminal context of someone being caught in an
act, a sentence like “被疑者を現行犯で逮捕した。” but I need a less specific way to put it.




Perhaps バレる is the word you're looking for?

"Oh, I guess you caught me." -> 「あぁ、 **バレて** しまったな」
