Cybercrime help, done the way you'd want it done if it happened to you.
Most cybercrime victims hit a wall. The platforms shrug, law enforcement is overwhelmed, and most of the places offering help are recovery scams going after people who already got scammed once. GCCI exists in that gap.
Lisa — Founder & Lead Investigator
I'm a cybercrime investigator who specializes in OSINT (open-source intelligence) attribution — figuring out who is really behind an anonymous account, a fake profile, a catfish, or a scam. It's work I've done hands-on for years, and I'm genuinely good at it. My rule is simple: trust, but verify. I confirm what I find before I ever share it, because in this work a careless answer can do real harm. I started GCCI so everyday people could get real, private investigative help without the cost and the wait of a big firm — every case worked by me personally, with no call center, no handoffs, and no judgment.
What we do
GCCI (Gus & Co. Cyber Investigations) runs two things:
- A free resource hub for cybercrime victims: practical guides, evidence preservation steps, routing to the correct reporting channels, and scam alerts. No signup, no tracking, no follow-up emails. You can leave at any time, no trace left behind.
- Flat-fee small-case investigation help for situations where the free guidance isn't enough: catfisher attribution, fake-account tracing, basic OSINT lookups, and case triage. Three tiers, transparent prices, detailed written report whether or not we crack the case.
Why "small-case"
Because the big-case work already exists. Rexxfield Technologies has been doing court-grade cybercrime attribution for over two decades, including expert testimony, civil litigation support, and large-scale financial fraud recovery. That work is excellent. It's also expensive and slow, by necessity.
Meanwhile most victims have a smaller, simpler question. Who is this person? What do I do next? Is there any way to get my photos taken down? Those questions deserve a real answer at a price someone in distress can actually afford. That's what GCCI is built for.
How we work with Rexxfield
GCCI is an independent initiative that works alongside Rexxfield. We share methodology and standards but operate separately. When a case that comes to GCCI needs court-grade attribution, expert testimony, or specialized recovery work, we route it to Rexxfield with the client's consent. When a case at Rexxfield is too small to justify their billing, they sometimes send it our way.
Our approach
- Privacy-first. No third-party trackers, no analytics pixels, no saved chat history. We don't run remarketing, share client lists, or publish identifying case studies.
- Trauma-informed. Cybercrime victims are often dealing with shame, fear, and second-guessing on top of the practical problem. We try to write and respond accordingly: calm, non-judgmental, direct.
- OSINT only. We work strictly within legal boundaries. Open-source intelligence and the evidence you provide. No pretexting, no hacking, nothing that puts either of us in legal jeopardy.
- Honest about limits. We don't promise outcomes we can't guarantee. We tell you up front when a case is outside what we can do, and we point you somewhere it can.
How you know we're real
The hardest part of reaching out after a scam is not knowing whether the person offering help is just another scammer. That's a fair worry — so here's how to check us:
- We're a registered, licensed West Virginia business. GCCI operates under a West Virginia business registration and license, with a federal tax ID on file. You can confirm our registration yourself through the State of West Virginia's public business search — we want you to check.
- We never charge to “recover” your money. Anyone who promises to get stolen funds back for an upfront fee is running the exact scam we warn people about. That is not what we do.
- Our fees are flat and posted on the site. No surprise charges, no “pay again to unlock your report.”
- We share methodology and standards with Rexxfield Technologies, a court-grade cybercrime attribution firm with more than twenty years in the field.
