#1 David Tanner's Story

I'm David Tanner, a 68-year-old retired high school teacher. One day, I received an urgent call from someone claiming to be an AT&T Security representative.

The person convinced me that my computer was infected with dangerous malware and instructed me to download security software. Trusting the supposed expert, I complied, but this “security software” was a tool for the scammer to gain remote access to my computer.

Within hours, my bank accounts were drained, my retirement savings wiped out, and even my emergency fund was stolen. In total, I lost over $75,000. My financial security, built over decades, was gone in a click. I felt helpless and abused, wondering how I could have fallen for such a scam.

After researching multiple options, I reached out to DataForensics. The first question they asked was, "Have you informed your family or close friends?" They emphasized the importance of support.

From the moment I contacted them, I was met with professionalism and empathy. They explained how the scammer deceived me and outlined the recovery process, detailing my chances of success and the way forward.

They discovered that the scammer was part of a larger network targeting retirees, and we were able to build a comprehensive profile of his operations. Learning who the scammer was made me feel like we were on even ground again. This brought immense feelings of empowerment and vindication—I was no longer helpless.

In the following 30 days, DataForensics conducted a thorough investigation, meticulously tracking the flow of my stolen funds across numerous digital wallets and various cryptocurrencies. The extensive report they provided detailed every transaction, which was instrumental in building a case against the scammer and acted as valid evidence in US courts. With this information, law enforcement could act, and the scammer now faces legal consequences for his actions. Even if the funds couldn’t be reimbursed, knowing that I got back at him provided a sense of justice.
