Carrie Kerskie

President, Kerskie Group LLC

Carrie Kerskie is the president of Kerskie Group LLC, founded in 2001 in Naples, Florida. Although she originally started her business as a private investigator, a growing number of clients she worked with as a PI experienced various forms of identity theft and had no one to turn to for help. With little to no resources available on how to recover from a cyber-attack, Carrie worked towards discovering the best methods of identity theft restoration and prevention.

For more than 15 years Carrie and her team have helped thousands of victims. These cases have enabled the Kerskie Group team to view identity theft, fraud, and cyber threats from all angles. Unlike other identity theft restoration services that only focus on the issue at hand, Kerskie Group digs deeper to identify other areas of risk and implement solutions to minimize or eliminate the threat at hand and limiting any future attacks by providing risk management services to affluent individuals and families.
