We take a smart approach to asset recovery
Cybertrace takes a smart approach to investigations and asset recovery by quoting recovery only after we have investigated and know if a recovery is possible. Many other carriers will charge a blind fee up front for asset recovery, however from our experience we know this is not only unrealistic but also misleading. No two asset recovery operations are alike and there is wide variation, including the location of the offender, the cooperation of local law enforcement (if any), the motivation and cooperation of identified offenders, and whether the offender can be identified and located. For this reason, we cannot quote asset recovery until we have investigated the scam and identified the offender.
We leave no stone unturned
