A Hidden Vendetta Unearthed: How RiskMind Exposed a Negative Campaign Investigation Against a Businessman

At RiskMind, we were recently approached by a European businessman who suspected that a negative campaign was being waged against him. He had noticed two articles mentioning him negatively within his industry and received sensitive information from an anonymous source. Our mission was to start a negative campaign investigation an uncover the truth - providing the client with the necessary evidence to take appropriate action.

In the preliminary research phase, we aimed to disprove the client's claim to ensure we were not pursuing a baseless case. Our investigation revealed a serious information leak, both in his business and private matters. This increased the probability of an orchestrated negative campaign against our client.

After a series of guiding questions, we identified a possible suspect - one of the client's major suppliers. This supplier had been involved in a business dispute with the client in the past, which had ended in arbitration in favor of the client. Our suspicion was that the supplier might have access to the client's inside information and could be behind the negative campaign.

We dispatched a field operative posing as an investor interested in the supplier's industry. After establishing a trust-building meeting, we arranged another meeting to gather more information. This time, the supplier admitted to being a predator in his field and shared how he had "handled" a client who had quarreled with him in the past.

Our field operative skillfully steered the conversation towards a more gossip-oriented tone, allowing the supplier to divulge more details. We discovered that these details aligned with the negative campaign against our client. The meeting was recorded, and the evidence was forwarded to the client and his legal team.

Shocked by the supplier's actions, our client believed the conflict was behind them since they had continued working together. Armed with the evidence, the client initiated legal proceedings against the supplier.

At RiskMind, we understand that uncovering hidden agendas and resolving disputes requires diligence and discretion. Our team of skilled investigators is committed to providing clients with the information they need to make informed decisions and protect their interests.
