Frequently Asked Questions
What types of fraud does Virtual Auditor investigate?
We investigate financial statement fraud, asset misappropriation, vendor/employee fraud, related party transaction abuse, revenue diversion, and digital fraud. CA V. Viswanathan holds the CFE credential from ACFE, USA — the global standard for fraud examination.
Can the forensic report be used as evidence in court?
Yes. Our forensic reports are prepared with evidentiary standards in mind — proper chain of custody, documented methodology, and conclusions supported by evidence. Reports have been used in NCLT proceedings, arbitrations, and criminal complaints.
How long does a forensic investigation take?
Typically 4-8 weeks depending on scope, data volume, and complexity. Preliminary findings can be shared within 2-3 weeks for urgent matters. Contact us at +91 99622 60333 to discuss your situation confidentially.
I suspect fraud. How can the issue be assessed confidentially and evidence preserved?
Keep the circle small: involve only the people who must know, and bring in legal counsel early. Do not confront the suspected person before evidence is secure. Preserve evidence first: take copies of the accounting system and emails, keep devices and logs, and record a chain of custody, so the evidence can be relied on later. A Certified Fraud Examiner then scopes the allegation, tests transactions with data analysis and document review, interviews in the right order, and reports facts, not conclusions of guilt. Statutory duties may apply, such as the auditor’s duty to report fraud under section 143(12) of the Companies Act. We start with a confidential scoping discussion and an engagement letter that sets the access we need.
