Common Digital & Online Investigations We Handle
Catfishing Investigations
What is catfishing?
Catfishing is when someone creates a false identity online to deceive, manipulate, or exploit another person. These schemes can be emotionally damaging and financially devastating. One of our clients lost over $100,000 to a criminal using catfishing techniques. In other cases, victims aren’t asked for money at all. Instead, they unknowingly share sensitive personal information with someone who has completely misrepresented who they are. What starts as harmless conversations often escalate into deep emotional entanglement, financial exploitation, or the sharing of sensitive personal information.
What Our Catfishing Investigations Do
If you suspect you are being catfished, we can help. Our team analyzes digital behavior, reviews online profiles, traces suspicious activity, and gathers evidence to identify who you’ve really been communicating with online. The goal is to provide clarity, protect you from further harm, and give you the information you need to move forward safely. Whether you need the truth for personal closure, to prevent financial loss, or to report the individual to law enforcement, we guide you through the process with professionalism and compassion.
Social Media Harassment & Cyberbullying
What is it?
Social media harassment and cyberbullying involve repeated damaging or threatening behavior through online platforms. Harassers often hide behind anonymous accounts to target their victims with threats, insults, impersonation, doxxing, abusive messages, public shaming, and harassment campaigns. These situations can escalate quickly, impacting mental health, personal safety, and even employment. The harassment can become sustained campaigns of intimidation, humiliation, and psychological harm. For teenagers and adults alike, the anxiety, fear, and emotional toll can be overwhelming. In the worst cases, online harassment can often lead to self-harm, isolation, or suicidal thoughts.
How we can help
If you are facing cyberbullying or social media harassment, we can help. Our investigators identify the source of the threatening behavior and document harmful activity. We gather evidence of harassment, identify the individuals behind anonymous profiles, and document online behavior in a way that can be used for reporting to platforms, employers, or law enforcement. Our goal is to stop the harassment, uncover the source, ensure your safety, and support you in taking the next appropriate steps to protect yourself.
Identity Theft
What Is Identity Theft?
Identity theft occurs when someone steals your personal or financial information, often resulting in impersonation, unauthorized accounts, fraudulent transactions, criminal activity, or serious damage to your credit or personal reputation. Once a criminal gains access to your data, they can leverage your identity for a wide array of unlawful, illegal, or criminal activity. Identity Theft can have serious, complex, and long-term consequences, often leaving victims with financial loss, legal complications, and significant administrative burdens.
How We Help
Our investigators work to identify how your information was obtained, trace where and how it is being used, and determine who is responsible. We analyze digital activity, verify fraudulent accounts, examine communication patterns, and gather evidence that can be used for reporting to banks, credit bureaus, or law enforcement. Our goal is to bring clarity to a complex situation, provide a clear picture of the scope of the fraud, and help you take the necessary steps to secure your identity and prevent further misuse - all with professionalism, discretion, and a structured investigative approach.
Online Blackmail & Sextortion
What Is Online Blackmail & Sextortion?
Online blackmail and sextortion occur when someone obtains sensitive information, such as private messages, intimate images, or personal details, and uses it to pressure or coerce the victim. These cases are often deliberate, calculated, and highly manipulative. Offenders may threaten to release the information publicly, contact employers or family members, and demand money, further images, or compliance with specific actions. Perpetrators frequently hide behind anonymous accounts or false identities, and victims are left dealing with fear, urgency, and concerns for personal consequences. Unfortunately, financial sextortion is on the rise in the US, with dozens of victims tragically turning to suicide.
How We Help
If you are in this situation, you’re not alone and we can help. We work to identify the individual or group behind the threats, verify the authenticity and intent of the communication, and document all relevant digital activity in a format suitable for law enforcement, legal counsel, or platform reporting. Our goal is to provide clarity, reduce risk, and guide you through the safest and most effective steps for resolving the situation. We help you regain control by exposing the source of the extortion, preventing further misuse of your information, and supporting you as you take the appropriate legal or protective actions.
What Law Enforcement Can and Cannot Do
Law enforcement can investigate clear criminal offenses, but online cases often move slowly due to heavy caseloads, strict jurisdiction, and procedural red tape. They cannot trace anonymous accounts, follow activity across multiple platforms, or access digital evidence without lengthy and complex formal legal process. Unlike law enforcement, private investigators like us are not limited by procedural delays or legal proceedings. We can act quickly and gather evidence that helps move your case forward. We trace online behavior and gather structured evidence that police often don’t have the capacity or authority to collect. We uncover information law enforcement can’t access on their own and build the clear, organized case file they need to take effective action.
