Cyber fraud investigation services we provide

We investigate online fraud schemes including investment scams, romance fraud, and authorised push payment fraud; corporate cybercrime including business email compromise, insider data exfiltration, and ransomware-related payment tracing; impersonation and brand-abuse cases; intellectual property theft; and digital harassment matters where attribution is required for civil or criminal action.

Each engagement combines passive OSINT collection, structured social-media intelligence, technical attribution work, and — where authorised — covert HUMINT engagement designed to surface admissible evidence without compromising the underlying investigation.

Digital forensics investigation and evidence handling

Our digital forensics investigation team handles device acquisition, cloud-account preservation, log analysis, and on-chain analytics under strict chain-of-custody controls. We work to the standards expected by courts in the US, UK, EU, and APAC, and we structure our forensic output so it can be relied on by counsel without re-validation by an additional expert.

Where matters involve digital assets, our online fraud tracing follows funds across major platforms and identifies off-ramp pathways used to convert stolen value back to fiat. Reports include visual flow diagrams suitable for court bundles and a written narrative accessible to non-technical decision makers.

Who instructs FCIB for cyber investigations

Law firms instruct FCIB when their clients have been targeted by sophisticated online fraud and need attribution evidence to pursue civil recovery. Corporate security and legal teams engage us when internal incidents require independent investigation. Regulators use our cyber capability to support enforcement actions against unlicensed financial platforms and cross-border fraud networks.

Why specialised cyber investigators matter

General-purpose investigators often miss the technical signals that decide the outcome of a cyber matter — log artefacts, blockchain heuristics, social-media metadata, and attribution patterns that require dedicated tooling and training. FCIB invests in tooling and continuous certification so our investigators stay ahead of evolving threat-actor tradecraft.

Frequently asked questions

Can FCIB trace funds sent through a digital-asset exchange?

Yes. We perform on-chain analytics across major platforms and document the off-ramp points where funds were converted back to fiat. This evidence is frequently used to support freezing orders and recovery negotiations with platforms.

Do you handle business email compromise cases?

Yes. BEC is one of our most frequent engagement types. We preserve email and cloud-account evidence, attribute the threat actor, and trace stolen funds to the point of recovery or off-ramp.

How quickly can FCIB respond to an active incident?

We can typically deploy investigative resource within 24 hours of instruction for active incidents. Evidence preservation begins immediately to minimise the risk of spoliation.
