From personal loss to protecting Australian businesses from illegal phoenix activity.
In 2021, I worked for a company that appeared successful – offices, staff, and big promises. But behind the scenes, they were running a well‑rehearsed cycle of fraud.
Every 4 to 5 years, they would cancel their business name, enter liquidation, and walk away from millions in ATO, WorkCover, and employee debts. Months earlier, they had already pre‑registered a new business name – sometimes the same name – and were advertising new jobs, ready to start the cycle again.
I was owed thousands of dollars in unpaid overtime, tax, superannuation, and sometimes a whole week's pay simply vanished. I wasn't alone – dozens of employees and subcontractors were left with nothing.
When I finally pieced together what was happening, I realised that the system was designed to protect the perpetrators, not the victims. That's when I made a decision: I would learn everything I could about corporate fraud, illegal phoenix activity, and investigative due diligence – so I could stop it from happening to others.
Today, I'm a licensed financial investigator. I don't just look at ABNs and ASIC extracts – I join the dots between directors, liquidations, asset transfers, and hidden debts. I find the patterns that free tools miss.
