Mostly fraud, scamming, identity theft, credit theft, etc. Her employer’s industry can be a breeding ground for it, so she goes hunting for them. It protects them and the government relies on the collaboration.
But there’s big responsibility. Unfortunately it seems a lot of people drag their family and friends into things by lying or scamming them too, trying to set them up as a scapegoat if they are discovered. So a big part of it is making that side of the story evident too before handing things over to the fed. Mother’s and siblings are the most frequent and hey’ll do all these fraudulent things they’re not aware of because their trusted family member with their “legitimate” business said it’s fine, so they don’t question it.

That’s really interesting. How do they get paid if they are doing all the work and then handing their research to the police?
