What clients say

Real results, from real clients — before you decide which plan fits.

"Daniel with GhostTrace LLC advised me that someone had cloned my Facebook page. I had previously been advised by a friend that they were receiving friend requests but were already my friend on Facebook. Daniel gathered the necessary information and within a hour had identified the problem and provided guidance and appropriate documentation to remedy the problem. Very quick and effective response from Daniel and his company. I would highly recommend Daniel and GhostTrace LLC to assist with this type of problem."

Verified Google review
Our first client review

"After losing money to a scammer, I felt embarrassed and didn't know where to turn. From the moment I contacted GhostTrace, their team was supportive and fast. They helped me understand what happened and walked me through next steps right away. I felt like I actually had someone on my side instead of facing it alone. I'm so grateful for how quickly and compassionately they responded."

If we haven't started, you haven't paid for anything

One-time services are fully refundable before work begins — no questions, no retention offer. Once an analyst starts, refunds are prorated for whatever wasn't delivered. Still not sure a paid engagement is even what you need? Book the free 15-minute intake call first — no credit card, no pressure, and we'll tell you honestly if you can handle it yourself. Full terms in our Terms of Service.

How much depth does each plan get you?

Every plan includes ongoing protection — the difference is how often we review your exposure and how deep that review goes.

One-time services below follow the same principle — a Consulting Session is a focused assessment, while Entity & Domain Due Diligence or Incident Documentation involve deeper, multi-source research and a full evidence-backed report.

Why pay for this instead of doing it yourself?

Fair question — a lot of this information is technically "free" if you know where to look and how much time you have. Here's what you're actually paying for.

Doing it yourselfGhostTrace
TimeHours of scattered searching across tools you've never used beforeHandled by an analyst who does this daily
Legal exposureEasy to cross into pretexting or unauthorized access without realizing itLawful-only methodology, documented at every step
Evidence qualityScreenshots saved wherever, unencrypted, with no record of who touched themTimestamped, sourced findings kept in encrypted, access-logged storage you can hand to a platform, employer, or lawyer
ObjectivityHard to stay objective about your own situationA trained second set of eyes with no emotional stake
SupportYou're on your own after the first searchDirect access to your analyst until it's resolved

We're a small firm, not the biggest name in the space — that's on purpose. It means your request doesn't disappear into a queue, and every finding is traceable back to a real person who's accountable for it.

Direct access, not a ticket queue

You message the analyst who's actually working your request, in a request thread — not a rotating support inbox.

Lawful by design

We only use publicly available information. No unauthorized access, no pretexting. Every finding is sourced and timestamped.

Nothing to take on faith
