The FTC recently released data that consumers reported $201 million lost in online dating scams in 2019, up nearly 40% since 2018.

“Your mother or father may be newly divorced or widowed and susceptible to ‘romance fraud.’ The victim will be convinced they are having an online relationship with the perpetrator (under a fake social account) as they email back and forth multiple times daily. I have seen this countless times and any fraud involving the elderly infuriates me personally."

A broken heart and a hole in your wallet is a painful combination indeed. If you’re looking for love online, this could be you. The FTC recently released data that consumers reported $201 million lost

"We’ve all been there: your coworker, sibling, or partner is in the other room, and you can’t help but notice the constant buzz of their unattended phone.

You could easily disregard the distraction... or you could just as easily take a quick glance at the screen—and risk spiraling into a wormhole of phone snooping. So, do you look?"

When it feels like there’s something you don’t know, it’s incredibly tempting to take just a tiny peek.

Divorce is not only heartbreaking, it’s expensive. Paying for it is more stress at a time when stress is off the charts. What if you don’t have the cash? The answer for some is divorce funding. Didn’t

I'm Darrin Giglio, the chief investigator, and president of North American Investigations. I have been conducting investigations for almost 30 years now.

I served the United States Marine Corps in a surveillance unit. I worked with the Secret Service and I graduated Cum Laude from Saint John's University with a degree of criminal justice.

My core principles are trust, integrity, perseverance, clear communication and I approach all of our investigations with professionalism and diligence. When you hire us, I am personally involved in your investigation.

During my career, I have been fortunate enough to have worked thousands of various types of investigations with a high rate of success. My team and I are commonly asked to investigate domestic issues, which include infidelity, cheating and child custody issues. Missing persons and locating people. Criminal cases, insurance fraud cases, and background checks.

We’re a surveillance intensive organization, and we're out in the field every single day.

When I'm consulting with a client, it always involves a particular problem they're having or questions that they want to be answered.
🔹 Can you prove my partner is cheating?
🔹 Can you help me with a custody battle?
🔹 Can you help find my missing family member?
🔹 I want to locate my old friend.
🔹 I'm a victim of insurance fraud. Can you help me?
🔹 I'm a victim of a crime. Can you help investigate that?
🔹 Or I've been accused of a crime and I'm innocent.

After I’m posed a particular question, I then have to strategize. How am I going to solve this particular problem? You could have worked the same kind of investigation 1000 times. But every single case differs. Every situation is unique.

At the end of the day, clients want peace of mind, facts, and evidence. That's why having a consultation with a client and interviewing them properly gives us much more information so we can have a successful outcome for them.

I'm very proud of my team. I have handpicked them personally. My team is comprised of very credentialed former police detectives, former federal agents and experienced expert investigators.

We match up each client's investigation to the specific skill set of each investigator so we can maximize results for their investigation. Having a team of this caliber ensures the highest rate of success for your case. I offer a free consultation. We're here to help. Please give us a call to discuss the matter.
