Private Investigator Ken Gamble's IFW

HISTORY
Internet Fraud Watchdog was founded in 2007 by Australian private investigator, Ken Gamble. Since then, IFW has been instrumental in exposing some of the world’s largest Internet scams.
Ken Gamble is an experienced investigator who has worked in more than 30 countries since 1988. He has an international reputation for tracking down and exposing Internet scammers and fraudsters. He formed a partnership with the current directors of IFW and the concept of a privately-owned Internet fraud protection business for the corporate sector was born.
Over the ensuing years Internet Fraud Watchdog has grown and has uncovered numerous ticketing scams, been involved in uncovering satellite piracy over the Internet, and has worked with many corporations to protect their intellectual property and brand reputation.
Internet Fraud Watchdog detects and prevents Internet fraud and related online scams worldwide. IFW is privately owned and focuses on working with the corporate sector to reduce exposure to online fraud.
All organisations today face unprecedented risks from cyber criminals who exploit and damage their reputations for financial or personal gain.
Fraudsters steal information, abuse intellectual property rights, sell non-existent products or services under popular brand names, create bad publicity, damage the credibility of major sporting and entertainment events and ultimately destroy consumer confidence in brands, products and services.
What does Internet Fraud Looks Like?
Internet fraud has many and varied faces. Some of the more obvious can include counterfeit goods, phishing emails, auction and retail schemes, business opportunities, ‘work-at-home’ schemes, identity theft and fraud, website cloning, investment schemes, credit card fraud, fake tickets, lotteries, Nigerian 419s, etc.
The Challenge
The challenge with most Internet fraud is that the scams are sometimes hard to identify.
The Internet has allowed companies to get closer to their customers in a timely and cost effective way. Unfortunately, offering a level of anonymity, the Internet also harbours cyber criminals who want to abuse those relationships either for personal or financial gain.
Internet Fraud Watchdog
The aim of Internet Fraud Watchdog is to protect you as a client and your business, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, from becoming the victim of possible lawsuits, bad publicity, loss of consumer confidence and loss of revenue.
