Fighting Cyber Harassment and Online Extortion

Are you being harassed or blackmailed online? We can help you fight back.

Individuals, small businesses and large corporations are open to all sorts of online attacks:

• People set up fake social media or email accounts, pretending to be you, to spread lies or doctored photos and videos in order to embarrass you, spoil your reputation or hurt your business.
• Someone pretends to be a friend to prompt you to share private, personal information or photos, then threatens to share them with the world unless you pay a ransom.
• Someone harasses you online so much you block them, only to see them create a new account and resume the harassment all over again.

In such cases, the perpetrators hide their identities, attacking from a position of secrecy. We can expose them.

Our experts know how to follow the digital footprints to track down IP addresses, cell phone numbers, email addresses, social media accounts and even specific devices used in these crimes. We can identify online harassers or extortionists with a high degree of success, arming you with the evidence you need to confront the harasser, seek a restraining order or possibly even press charges.

How We Help Identify Perpetrators

Criminals who harass, bully or blackmail their victims operate in the internet shadows to hide their identities. They use anonymous social media accounts, fake email addresses, false identities. But they always leave digital footprints, and our expert examiners know how to follow them. In many cases, our analysts can work with you to track down the domains and IP addresses used to commit harassment or extortion, determining the source of the crime. If you think you know who is harassing you, our experts can cross-reference IP addresses to find out for sure. All that evidence can be documented for use in a police investigation or court case, and our legal counsel can help guide you through those steps.
