Types of Scams We Handle

At VG Solutions, we are committed to providing comprehensive investigative services that address a wide range of fraudulent activities. Our expertise spans multiple sectors, ensuring that we can assist victims in recovering their losses and taking legal action against perpetrators. Below is an in-depth look at the types of scams we handle:

Securities Fraud
Securities fraud is a deceptive practice in the financial markets that often involves manipulating or misrepresenting information to investors, leading to significant financial losses. This type of fraud can manifest in various forms, such as insider trading, where individuals use non-public information to gain an unfair advantage in the stock market, or market manipulation, where perpetrators artificially inflate or deflate the price of a security to benefit from the resulting price movement. Additionally, deceitful practices such as Ponzi schemes, where returns are paid to earlier investors using the capital of newer investors rather than profit earned, are prevalent in the securities market. Our team of experts specializes in investigating these complex cases, employing advanced techniques to trace fraudulent activities, gather evidence, and work diligently to recover the lost assets. We collaborate with financial institutions and regulatory bodies to ensure that those responsible for such deceitful practices are brought to justice, providing our clients with the resolution and closure they deserve.

Cryptocurrency Scams
As the popularity of cryptocurrencies has surged, so too has the number of scams targeting unsuspecting investors. Cryptocurrency scams can take many forms, from fraudulent initial coin offerings (ICOs) that promise high returns but deliver nothing, to phishing attacks where scammers trick victims into divulging their private keys or credentials, leading to the theft of their digital assets. Other common schemes include Ponzi schemes, where returns are paid from new investments rather than legitimate profit, and pump-and-dump schemes, where the price of a cryptocurrency is artificially inflated before the scammer sells off their holdings at a profit, leaving other investors with worthless assets. Our team specializes in the intricate process of tracing and recovering stolen or lost cryptocurrencies. Using blockchain analysis tools and techniques, we can follow the flow of funds through various wallets and exchanges, identify the perpetrators, and work with legal authorities to recover your assets. We understand the complexities of the digital currency landscape and are equipped to handle even the most sophisticated scams.

Sports Betting Fraud
The world of sports betting is not immune to fraudulent activities. Scammers often exploit the enthusiasm and optimism of bettors by manipulating odds or making false guarantees of success, leading to significant financial losses for the victims. These fraudulent operations may involve rigged games, where the outcome is predetermined, or deceptive betting platforms that promise high returns but disappear with the users’ funds. Additionally, insider betting, where individuals with access to non-public information place bets to gain an unfair advantage, is another form of fraud that can undermine the integrity of sports. Our investigative team is well-versed in the nuances of sports betting fraud. We conduct thorough investigations to uncover the deceptive practices at play, whether they involve illegal gambling rings, fraudulent betting platforms, or collusion between insiders and bettors. Our goal is to help victims recover their losses and take legal action against those responsible, while also working to prevent future occurrences of such scams by raising awareness and providing strategic advice to our clients.

Pyramid Schemes
Pyramid schemes are fraudulent investment strategies that lure participants with promises of high returns based on recruiting others into the scheme rather than genuine profit from legitimate business activities. These schemes are unsustainable and often collapse when the pool of new recruits dries up, leaving the majority of participants with significant financial losses. Pyramid schemes often disguise themselves as legitimate businesses or investment opportunities, making it difficult for individuals to recognize the scam until it is too late. Our team is dedicated to investigating and dismantling these illegal operations. We work to trace the flow of funds, identify the key players involved, and recover assets for those who have been misled. By combining forensic accounting with legal expertise, we aim to bring justice to the victims and hold the perpetrators accountable. Additionally, we provide guidance on how to recognize and avoid such schemes, helping our clients protect themselves from future fraud.

Online Purchase Scams
The rise of e-commerce has unfortunately led to an increase in online purchase scams, where customers are defrauded by fake sellers or misled about the products they receive. These scams can range from counterfeit goods, where the product is not as described or of inferior quality, to non-delivery scams, where the buyer pays for an item that never arrives. Other forms include bait-and-switch tactics, where a customer is lured by a seemingly attractive deal, only to be pressured into purchasing a more expensive or different product. Our team is equipped to address these online purchase scams by investigating the fraudulent sellers and their operations. We work to reclaim your money, whether through chargebacks, refunds, or legal action, and hold these fraudulent sellers accountable for their actions. We also provide advice on how to shop safely online, including tips on identifying red flags and verifying the legitimacy of sellers, ensuring that our clients can continue to enjoy the convenience of online shopping without falling victim to scams.

Investment Scams
Investment scams are pervasive and often involve fraudulent offers that promise high returns with little risk, preying on individuals’ hopes of financial gain. These scams can take many forms, including Ponzi schemes, where returns are paid from new investors’ funds rather than from profit earned, and high-yield investment programs (HYIPs), which promise extraordinarily high returns but are typically unsustainable and collapse, leaving investors with losses. Other common tactics include offshore investment frauds, where investors are enticed to invest in foreign markets or companies that do not exist, and advance-fee fraud, where victims are required to pay upfront fees for investment opportunities that never materialize. Our team of experts investigates these deceptive practices, employing advanced techniques to uncover the truth behind the scam. We work closely with legal authorities and financial institutions to recover the funds and take legal action against the fraudsters. Our goal is to help victims navigate the complex process of recovery and provide them with the support they need to regain their financial footing. We also educate our clients on how to spot and avoid investment scams, empowering them to make informed decisions in the future.

By addressing these various types of scams, we strive to protect our clients from financial harm and ensure that justice is served. Our comprehensive approach to investigation and recovery reflects our commitment to upholding integrity and transparency in all our dealings, providing you with the confidence and security you need in an increasingly complex financial landscape.
