Help with an online scam?

If you are a victim of internet scams or other forms of online fraud, such as phishing, sextortion, boiler room fraud, Ponzi fraud, online intimidation and cryptocurrency fraud, you can contact Intercross Investigation Services. We specialize in open source intelligence and are familiar with the tactics cybercriminals use to defraud or harass victims.

In many cases, the cause of online fraud lies in a privacy leak. For example, if your phone number appears in a known Facebook data breach from several years ago, cybercriminals could use this information to impersonate someone else over the phone. Your personal information may have been leaked through similar databases. The same goes for email addresses, usernames and passwords. 

A first step is to cut off access to your digital life to prevent further damage. In addition, we recommend:

• Change your passwords and use unique passwords for each online account.
• Enable two-step verification where possible to add additional layers of security.
• Perform regular updates to software and operating systems to close security holes.
• Installing antivirus/malware software
• Set up alerts for suspicious activity on your accounts.
• Do not share personal information with unknown or suspicious people online.
  

After this measure has been taken, we as a criminal investigation agency can collect evidence to recover your damages. 

At Intercross, we are ready to help you identify perpetrators and recover damages, while also providing you with strategies to minimize future risks.
