E-Investigations ?Digital Forensic Experts?
E-Investigations, a Houston, Texas based digital forensics firm, used special computer forensic techniques to decode separate parts of the same email to prove that a forged email was produced as the original in a recent case. The MSG file produced in the discovery phase of litigation did not find evidence of forgery; however, using specialized computer forensics software, and the knowledge of computer forensic investigators, E-Investigations was able to find multiple copies of the original text in the MSG file.E-Investigations a digital forensics firm in Houston, Texas, provided proof through computer forensics that a forged email in a potential case involving a large energy provider. An individual claimed an energy salesperson provided a special pricing rate and forged an original email as ?proof? of the claim. The salesperson from the energy company maintained that they did not offer the special rate, but the emails had already been purged from the energy company?s server. This rate combined with the volume of usage amounted to several hundred thousand dollars. Using the latest in computer forensics techniques, E-Investigations was able to decode separate parts of email to find the same email encoded several different ways.
In this case, E-Investigations was provided only the MSG file. An MSG file extension is a message created or saved within Microsoft Outlook which contains multiple e-mail fields, including the date, sender, recipient, subject, and message body. The MSG file produced in the in discovery phase of the potential litigation did not find evidence of forgery; however, using specialized computer forensics software, and the knowledge of computer forensic examiners, E-Investigations was able to find multiple copies of the original text encoded in this MSG file. When viewing this MSG file in the default Microsoft outlook program, the email produced by opposing counsel only produced the special rate claimed by the user. E-Investigations was able to find multiple copies of this text proving that the email had been forged.
