Digital Forensics: How a Cybersecurity Company Investigates a Loss

Digital forensics is the work of turning a payment, a chat and a website into a file a bank, a card scheme or the police can read. We investigate losses as a cybersecurity company — we do not replace the bank, the card scheme, or the police.

What the file holds

What digital forensics actually looks at

  • The date you paid, and whether it was a card, a bank transfer or crypto.
  • The exact URL, wallet or account you used — not the brand name on the advert.
  • The name or handle of the person who told you to pay.
  • A screenshot of the dashboard, the chat or the receipt.
  • The public record already written on the review page for that name.
The job

Investigation is not a substitute for the bank or the police

We investigate losses as a cybersecurity company — we do not replace the bank, the card scheme, or the police. A forensic file tells those channels what happened. It does not close an account, confirm a balance or phone you as the firm.

That is why the first look at the file is free. We place what you send next to the record. Then we tell you what belongs with the bank, the card scheme or the police.

How the work runs

Digital forensics versus a recovery pitch

  • A forensic file names sources.A recovery pitch names a percentage.
  • A forensic file asks for the date and how you paid.A recovery pitch asks for a fee to start.
  • A forensic file sits next to a public record.A recovery pitch asks you to stay off the record.

What to send for a digital forensics look

One record opens the file

Send the date and how you paid. The first look at the file is free.

Keep the original

Do not overwrite chats or delete the app. A screenshot is enough to open the file; the original is what the bank or the police may later ask for.

Read the review first

If the name is already in our broker reviews, the notices are written once in that block. Send only what that page cannot see.
