Fraud Investigation FAQs
What types of fraud do you investigate?
We investigate a wide range of fraud cases including insurance fraud (auto, property, disability, workers compensation), identity theft and impersonation, financial fraud and embezzlement, vendor and contractor fraud, check and credit card fraud, online scams and cybercrime, romance and dating scams, investment fraud schemes, and consumer fraud. Our investigators have backgrounds in financial crimes and use advanced techniques to trace fraudulent activity, identify perpetrators, and gather evidence for criminal prosecution or civil recovery.
How do you prove fraud?
Proving fraud requires establishing several elements: a false statement or representation was made, the person making it knew it was false, it was made with intent to deceive, the victim reasonably relied on it, and damages resulted. We gather evidence through surveillance (documenting actual activities vs. claimed limitations), financial analysis (tracing money flows and identifying discrepancies), digital forensics (recovering communications and documents), witness interviews, database searches, and expert analysis. Our reports present evidence in a clear format suitable for insurance claims, law enforcement, or litigation.
Can fraud investigation evidence lead to criminal charges?
Yes. Evidence from private investigations can be used by law enforcement to support criminal fraud charges. We frequently work with police departments, district attorneys, and federal agencies on fraud cases. Our investigations are conducted to meet criminal evidence standards. If your case involves significant fraud, we can help prepare a comprehensive package for law enforcement referral. Many of our fraud investigations result in criminal prosecution, restitution orders, and civil judgments against perpetrators.
How much does a fraud investigation cost?
Fraud investigation costs vary based on case complexity, required surveillance hours, financial analysis depth, and digital forensics needs. Basic investigations start around $2,000-5,000. Complex cases involving extensive financial tracing or multiple subjects may cost $10,000-25,000 or more. Many insurance companies and businesses factor investigation costs into fraud recovery efforts. We provide detailed proposals outlining expected costs and can structure payment plans for qualifying clients. ROI is often significant when fraud is proven and recovery is pursued.
How long do fraud investigations take?
Timeline depends on fraud type and complexity. Workers compensation fraud surveillance typically runs 2-4 weeks to document activity patterns. Financial fraud investigations involving transaction analysis may take 4-8 weeks. Complex cases with multiple defendants or jurisdictions can extend several months. We provide timeline estimates during consultation and can expedite investigations when time-sensitive factors exist (statute of limitations, ongoing financial harm). Regular progress updates keep you informed throughout the process.
