Corporate Theft and Property Crime

Corporate theft from stock, inventory, warehouses and building sites can result in significant losses for companies.

It is a property crime, which is the general term for crimes that involve money, property, and assets. These are the most common types of crime and they occur when one person is enriched at the expense of another person or legal entity, such as a company or organisation.

The common types of property crime involve

• Theft
• Burglary
• Motor vehicle theft

To set up a successful investigative strategy our experienced team, with corporate, police, and military backgrounds, provide you with strong resources to analyse available information, patterns of activity, and evidence. All investigations are customised to meet the individual circumstances of your case. Our goal is to identify the perpetrator/s, stop the crime, and provide the evidence you need.

Property crimes are often repeated in a pattern and intensify over time. This can lead to a considerable loss for companies, organizations, and individuals. As private investigators, we are often presented with circumstantial evidence, such as inventory shrinkage, employees living beyond their means, rumours in the workplace, or reports from whistleblowers or other companies. We help you identify and investigate your suspicions and provide hard evidence from a well-proven set of methods.
