Expose Corporate Fraud.
Offload the 25 Hours of Evidence Prep.
For Certified Fraud Examiners (CFE), forensic accountants, corporate risk investigators, and white-collar defense consultants, your billable value is delivered during depositions, courtroom testimony, asset recovery negotiations, and C-suite briefings. But when you are trapped manually Bates-stamping 800 pages of bank statements, transcribing 14 muffled witness interviews, pulling corporate filings across 15 state portals, and cross-matching shell company vendor lists, you waste up to 25+ billable hours every single week. Hire a dedicated, data-secure Business Fraud Investigation Virtual Assistant to scrub financial workbooks, organize evidence dockets, and conduct public-records background sweeps with zero micromanagement.
Proficient in industry-standard forensic accounting, OSINT, document indexing & investigation tools
Lead investigators should be interrogating fraud schemes, not manual-formatting PDF bank records until midnight.
Every hour a Certified Fraud Examiner or forensic accountant spends OCR-scanning blurry bank PDF exports, matching invoice line items in Excel, or cross-referencing Secretary of State registered agent records is an hour taken away from high-stakes witness interviews, fraud pattern analysis, and expert witness deposition prep. In forensic investigation practices, administrative backlogs introduce severe risk: subpoena deadlines crunch review teams, crucial timeline discrepancies get buried in disorganized folders, and realization rates drop drastically.
Hiring unvetted freelancers from general gig platforms is an unacceptable risk for fraud investigations. Generalist assistants don't understand chain of custody rules, confuse ACH transfers with wire settlements, cannot detect Benford's Law distribution anomalies, fail to keep confidential case files air-gapped, and lack the professional discretion required when investigating internal corporate embezzlement or employee kickback rings. Sagedoer provides specialized, commercially trained Business Fraud Investigation Virtual Assistants who serve as your remote forensic research and docket support desk. Supervised by an experienced Investigation Operations Project Manager, your VA cleans financial trial balances, tracks ultimate beneficial ownership (UBO) structures, indexes litigation exhibit binders, transcribes recorded witness statements, and maintains chronological case timelines with zero babysitting.
Forensic Ledger Hygiene & Bank Statement Scrubbing
We extract raw bank statements, credit card ledgers, and accounts payable exports via OCR and Power Query, reconciling unrecorded withdrawals, suspicious round-dollar vendor payments, and duplicate invoices into standardized audit tables.
Public Records, Corporate Registry & UBO Mapping
We systematically pull articles of incorporation, annual reports, UCC lien filings, property deed transfers, and litigation dockets from Secretary of State and county clerk portals, mapping hidden corporate affiliations and conflict-of-interest relationships.
Fraud Investigation Operations Comparison
| Financial Data Hygiene | Scattered PDFs with unverified formulas & missing lines. | Standardized Power Query ledgers, reconciled & cross-referenced. |
| Evidence Docketing | Disorganized folder dumps with broken filenames. | Bates-stamped, bookmarked, court-ready PDF exhibit binders. |
| Public Records Sweeps | Surface Google searches; questionable corporate attribution. | Rigorous SOS filings, UCC searches, SEC 10-Ks & county deeds. |

Full-Spectrum Fraud Investigation Support
From initial whistleblower allegation intake to final courtroom-ready exhibit dossiers, our VAs keep your investigative casework rigorous and structured.
Bank Ledger OCR & Discrepancy Scrubbing
Digitizing paper and PDF bank statements into clean Excel tables using Power Query. Flagging unrecorded transfers, abnormal transaction timing, round-sum withdrawals, and recurring vendor payments outside normal billing cadences.
Public Records Sweeps & UBO Mapping
Performing structured OSINT on suspect entities and officers: searching OpenCorporates, state corporate registries, business license databases, property deed transfers, and court dockets to document hidden ownership trees.
Timeline Chronologies & Event Sequencing
Organizing emails, accounting entries, wire confirmations, phone call records, and meeting minutes into minute-by-minute case chronologies. Visualizing sequence gaps and correlation points for partner and client presentations.
Witness & Subject Interview Coding
Transcribing audio and video discovery sessions via Descript or Otter.ai. Cleaning phonetic errors, indexing timestamps, tagging subject contradictions, and compiling direct verbatim quote banks for formal forensic reports.
Courtroom Exhibit Binders & Bates Stamping
Applying sequential Bates numbering, OCR text recognition, and hyperlinked tables of contents to evidentiary PDF dossiers in Adobe Acrobat Pro, ensuring litigation and deposition readiness with zero page misalignment.
Vendor Screening & Conflict-of-Interest Checks
Cross-referencing vendor tax IDs, registered business addresses, and banking routing numbers against internal employee personnel registries to uncover ghost vendor schemes, duplicate billing accounts, and executive kickbacks.
