Digital Forensics & Fraud Investigations

Caught in an online scam, or suspect one? We turn confusion into a clear, evidence-based forensic report. What happened, who is behind it, where the money went, and exactly what to do, in a document your bank and the police will take seriously.

Not a recovery service. We never charge to get your money back.

Who it's for

When the truth is the thing you need most.

Whether you have already lost money or you are one click away from it, an independent investigation gives you facts you can act on instead of fear you can't.

If you were scammed

Crypto investment and "pig butchering," task scams, romance scams, fake exchanges, marketplace and rental fraud, impersonation. We document what happened so you can report it and protect yourself from the next hit.

Before you invest or partner

Considering a platform, an "opportunity," or a new business partner? We tear it apart first so you do not learn the hard way. Due diligence that pays for itself many times over.

For small businesses

Business-email-compromise, vendor-impersonation, brand abuse, employee-targeted scams. We investigate the incident and help you shut down the exposure.

How it works

A repeatable investigation, done the same careful way every time.

We work entirely from public records and the materials you give us. We never log into the scammer, attack anything, or tip off the people behind it. Everything in your report can be traced back to a source.

  1. You tell us what happened

    A short intake: the links, screenshots, chats, any "contracts," and how money moved. It takes about fifteen minutes. We also note whether the scam is still active, because that changes how fast we move.

  2. We lock down the evidence

    Every screenshot and document is preserved and fingerprinted on arrival, so nothing can be questioned later. Your originals are never altered. This is the chain of custody that makes a report hold up.

  3. We dig into the platform and the people

    We examine the website, when it was really created, where it is hosted, and how the scheme is built. A team of specialists runs in parallel: reputation checks, scam-pattern matching, fake-exchange analysis, document review, and tracing the people and payment trail.

  4. We separate fact from guess

    Every finding is labeled clearly: confirmed, a strong inference, or unknown. Where the trail goes cold, we say so honestly and tell you what it would take to go further. No decoration, no false certainty.

  5. You get the report

    A branded forensic report, delivered with a plain-language walkthrough so you understand every part of it. Built to be handed straight to your bank, your lawyer, or law enforcement.

  6. We point you to the right people

    We hand you the exact places to report it for your situation, the federal and consumer agencies, your bank or payment provider, and the platforms involved, with what to file where. You are never left wondering what to do next.

The deliverable

A bank-and-police-ready forensic report.

Not a vague summary. A structured, branded document built to stand up to scrutiny, written so you can read it and so the professionals you hand it to can act on it.

  • Executive summary, in plain language, with any time-critical actions flagged
  • Every indicator and piece of evidence, fingerprinted with a clear chain of custody

Our promise

We are not a recovery service.

We will never promise to get your money back, and we will never charge a fee to "recover funds." Up-front recovery fees are themselves a scam, and people who have just been hit are routinely targeted a second time by someone wearing that costume. If anyone asks you to pay to get your money back, walk away.

Our value is the truth, documented, and pointing you at the right official channels. That honesty is the whole point. It is what separates us from the recovery scams that prey on victims.
