A well-established South Florida law firm reached out to Incognitus Private Investigators on behalf of a client who owned a mid-sized logistics company. The client had growing concerns about unexplained financial discrepancies and suspected that someone on the inside was manipulating vendor accounts for personal gain. With limited internal resources and a strong desire to handle the matter discreetly, the client turned to a trusted legal team, who then recommended bringing in a professional private investigator.
From the outset, Incognitus Private Investigators approached the case with precision and confidentiality. An initial consultation was scheduled to gather basic information, including the nature of the suspicious activity, internal access logs, and an overview of key personnel. The assigned private investigator began by reviewing vendor account data, payment records, and authorization trails. Almost immediately, irregularities were found in purchase orders and payment schedules. These anomalies suggested that someone with administrative access was falsifying vendor accounts to siphon company funds.
Over the following days, the private investigator conducted discreet interviews with several employees, focusing on those with access to the accounting and procurement systems. These conversations were carefully structured to avoid raising suspicion, while still uncovering critical behavioral and procedural inconsistencies. Parallel to the interview process, our private investigator set up a discreet surveillance protocol to monitor key employees' activities within the office and outside during work hours.
During surveillance, the private investigator documented unusual interactions between one employee and an unknown third party who frequently visited the office under vague pretexts. This led to the discovery of an off-the-books relationship with a non-existent vendor account, created and controlled by the same employee. The scheme had been operating quietly for nearly two years, with the employee funneling payments to a shell company under a friend’s name, then splitting the money.
Upon confirming these findings, Incognitus Private Investigators compiled a comprehensive report detailing all evidence, timelines, digital trails, and photographs captured during surveillance. The private investigator's report was formatted in a way that could be used for both internal HR proceedings and legal action, should the client wish to pursue prosecution. The law firm representing the client praised the clarity and admissibility of the report, noting that the private investigator’s documentation met every evidentiary requirement for a civil claim.
What set Incognitus apart in this case was not only the ability to uncover fraud, but also the manner in which the investigation was conducted. The entire operation was handled with absolute discretion, protecting the company’s reputation and avoiding internal panic. The client was able to terminate the employee quietly and begin recovery procedures with their legal team without the matter becoming public knowledge.
The private investigator remained available for follow-up questions and even provided in-person testimony during a confidential mediation between the parties. This level of ongoing support is one of the reasons law firms and business owners alike continue to choose Incognitus Private Investigators for complex corporate matters. The law firm later referred another client to Incognitus based on the outcome and professionalism of the work provided.
