Investigations
Case 1. Tremac Investigations carried out an investigation into suspected fraudulent invoice payments. The false invoices were being constructed and falsely authorised with forged company signatures by an internal employee. The extent of the frauds exceeded one million dollars.
Tremac Investigations coordinated the collection of all evidence, interviewed all relevant witnesses and commenced a surveillance operation on the suspect employee. At the same time Tremac Investigations worked with the legal team of the client to commence a civil restitution process against the employee but maintaining some covert aspects of the criminal investigation.
The investigators met and briefed Criminal Investigation Detectives in Sydney and provided them with an extensive brief of evidence including bank statements, copies of the fraudulent invoices, and statements from relevant witnesses. The police were able to commence actions and place alerts on the suspect who was detected trying to leave the country and was arrested.
The suspect employee later appeared in NSW criminal courts and was sentenced to a term of imprisonment. The company successfully recovered up to 90 % of their losses, in excess of one million dollars. The costs of the investigation were met by the company’s insurance.
Case 2. Tremac Investigators were tasked with obtaining evidence of a breach of proprietary information. A crucial employee of one company was suspected of setting up a change or employers and to facilitate the move the employee began sharing confidential tender documents obtained from his present employer with his prospective new employer.
Tremac Investigators established the link between the employer and second company, obtained crucial evidence of the transference of confidential information and worked with the legal team to pursue damages and prevent the loss of valuable tender documentation details.
Case 3. Tremac Investigators assisted a client with the theft of gift vouchers that had been issued to staff as a Christmas bonus. The vouchers were valued at $2000.

Tremac Investigators then identified the person transacting the stolen gift vouchers as an employee of the client company. He was interview and admitted the offences and the matter was pursued by the police.
