Artus Group investigators have significant experience conducting Internet investigations. The following areas of expertise are just some of the areas in which we specialize:

Stolen and Counterfeit Goods
The presumed anonymity of Internet auction sites offer the perfect marketplace for stolen and counterfeit goods, or so the sellers think. Extensive experience and in depth knowledge of internet procedures, language, auction sites, user groups and market portals allows Artus Group investigators to effectively investigate the source of stolen and counterfeit goods.

We have developed the ability to effectively conduct undercover communication with sellers on the internet and to ultimately make counterfeit product purchases with the backstops necessary to ensure anonymity for our clients.

Product purchases are followed by in-depth internet and conventional investigative methodology to confirm the source. We adhere to strict chain of evidence procedures to ensure your case can be prosecuted cleanly and without complication.

Prescription Drugs on the Internet
We have extensive experience investigating the availability of sensitive products on the Internet. Artus Group investigators handled a major initiative for a prominent pharmaceutical company to investigate the unauthorized availability of their prescription drug products online.

Although widely advertised for sale, the investigation revealed that the drugs were almost impossible to buy online. In every case where the drug was offered for sale, it was proved to be a hoax or a scam to buy a list or a link. The investigation revealed truths in stark contrast to facts widely touted by pressure groups and public figures.

The results enabled the client to diffuse criticism of the availability of its product and the report was commended by a government agency also conducting its own investigation into the matter. This is an indication of the level of investigative work conducted by Artus Group investigators and exhibits the effectiveness of a well managed investigation.

We also track the postings and activity of individuals and groups presumed to pose a corporate or public relations threat to our clients, which can be critical in evaluating risk and public stance.

Competitive Intelligence and Sensitive Inquiries
Using the described anonymous backstop resources described above, Artus Group investigators conduct competitive intelligence and other sensitive inquiries online.

We “test the waters” for new ideas and products through user groups, bulletin boards and blog sites. We use these resources for many purposes and to evaluate the extent and popularity of corporate rumors and mergers & acquisitions.

Location Services
Internet search skills honed over thousands of hours online have enables Artus Group investigators to find the most sensitive items requested by our clients.

These include people, products, counterfeit products, illegitimate software, resources, intelligence information, documents, services, competitive intelligence and rare, collectible items and exotic goods. It takes skill and patience and we have both to help you find what or who you are looking for.
