Extortion and harassment

Sextortion, ransom demands and sustained online harassment are handled as investigations, not as negotiations. The immediate priority is containment and evidence preservation; the objective is attribution and a route to enforcement.

What the work involves

  1. 01

    Preserve evidence in a defensible form before accounts are deleted, which is usually within days.

  2. 02

    Trace any payments already made and identify where they were consolidated.

  3. 03

    Attribute the accounts and infrastructure involved through open-source intelligence.

  4. 04

    Prepare removal and preservation requests to platforms, which respond to correctly formed requests far more often than to individual complaints.

  5. 05

    Produce a package that a police cybercrime unit can act on rather than file.

What this cannot do

Paying an extortionist funds the next demand and rarely ends the first. We will say so. If you have already paid, that is not a reason to avoid us; it is information, and it is traceable.
