Process

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Initial enquiry from victim, legal team, or counsel

    Contact us directly or have your legal team reach out with a brief outline of the matter. We'll respond within 24 hours. Everything is strictly confidential from the first conversation.

  2. Step 2

    Scoping call to understand the matter and intelligence sought

    We speak with you or your instructing counsel to understand the matter, what is known, and what intelligence is being sought. No obligation.

  3. Step 3

    Engagement and NDA signed before any work begins

    We agree scope, timeline, and fees. A full NDA is signed before any work begins. All engagements are strictly confidential.

  4. Step 4

    OSINT investigation across platforms, records, and on-chain data

    We conduct OSINT investigation across identified platforms, public records, and on-chain data - documenting findings at every stage.

  5. Step 5

    Structured intelligence report delivered

    We deliver a structured intelligence report - integrated with blockchain forensic findings where applicable - for police, legal, or regulatory use.

Overview

What is OSINT

  • What OSINT means

    Open-source intelligence is the collection and analysis of publicly available information from legal sources - social media, public records, domain registrations, forums, and other data that does not require hacking or unauthorised access.

  • What it can establish

    Identity correlation, account linkage, geographic indicators, organizational connections, and online behavior patterns - building a picture of who may be behind wallet activity or a scam operation.

  • What it cannot do

    OSINT operates within legal boundaries. It does not involve hacking, unauthorised access, surveillance, or obtaining private data without lawful authority. We document sources and limitations clearly.

  • How it works alongside blockchain forensics

    On-chain tracing identifies wallet activity and fund flows. OSINT identifies the person or organization behind the wallet - together they produce a complete investigation picture.

  • Admissibility

    OSINT findings are documented to a standard suitable for use in the US legal proceedings and police complaints - with clear source attribution, methodology, and limitations recorded throughout.
