You've been scammed. I help you document what happened — clearly, lawfully, quickly.
If someone tricked you out of money, personal information, or trust online, the next 72 hours matter. You bring me what you have — messages, transaction records, usernames, wallet addresses — and I organize it into a professional, timestamped record so you can dispute the charge, report the platform, or bring it to law enforcement.
In one sentence: Scam response and documentation support is a service where you supply the records from your own scam experience, and I organize, preserve, timestamp, and format them into a report you can act on.
If a scam has turned into threats, blackmail, sextortion, or you fear for your physical safety, contact local law enforcement or call 911 first — this service documents what happened, it isn't a substitute for a police response. If a minor is involved, also report it to the NCMEC CyberTipline (report.cybertip.org).
What this service is
Scam response and documentation support is a structured engagement built entirely from material you supply about your own situation: your messages, transaction records, usernames, wallet addresses, and screenshots. I organize that material by pattern (romance scams, pig-butchering / crypto investment scams, fake support, invoice/BEC fraud, marketplace fraud), preserve it with timestamps and hashes, and format it the way banks, platforms, and law enforcement expect.
I'm not law enforcement and I do not identify, locate, or profile the other party — I work only from what you provide about your own experience and your own accounts. I cannot arrest, subpoena, or recover funds directly. What I can do is turn a chaotic incident into a clean, defensible record that helps make your chargeback, takedown, or police report easier to understand and act on.
Who this is for
- You've sent money to someone you met online (romance / relationship scam).
- You were persuaded into a 'crypto trading' or 'investment' platform (pig-butchering).
- You paid an invoice or wire that turned out to be fraudulent (BEC / invoice fraud).
- You bought something on a marketplace or Facebook/Instagram shop that never arrived.
- A fake 'support agent' from a bank, Apple, Microsoft, or IRS convinced you to transfer funds.
How it works
Intake call or written brief
You walk me through the timeline and share the contact records, transaction data, usernames, wallet addresses, and screenshots you have. Under 30 minutes for most requests.
Organize and preserve
I organize, timestamp, and hash everything you provided so it holds together as a coherent record. I do not add new identifying research of my own — no locating or profiling the other party.
Documented report
You receive a plain-language report: executive summary, evidence appendix, and next-step guidance for your bank, platform, and — where appropriate — law enforcement (FTC, IC3).
Follow-up support
30 days of follow-up support for questions, clarifications, and updates as banks or platforms respond.
What's included
- Timeline of the scam (dates, channels, key events) built from what you provide.
- Organized record of the usernames, wallet addresses, and contact details you supply.
- Formatting of any public transaction data (block explorers) you point me to, if crypto is involved.
- Recommended report package for your bank, the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov), the FBI IC3 (ic3.gov), and the platforms involved.
- Guidance on securing your own accounts and identity to reduce repeat targeting.
- PDF report + preserved records bundle stored in your client portal.
Frequently asked
Can you find out who scammed me?
No. I don't identify, locate, or profile the person or group behind a scam — that's outside what a documentation service can lawfully do, and outside my scope. I work only from what you provide about your own experience. Identifying a scammer is a law-enforcement function; my report is built to make your police report or FTC/IC3 filing stronger, not to replace it.
Can GhostTrace get my money back?
No one can guarantee recovery. Money movement is controlled by banks, payment processors, and crypto exchanges. What I do is help you organize the strongest possible record to dispute the charge, request a reversal, and file with authorities — which supports a more complete dispute or report.
How much does this cost?
Standard engagements start at $299 (one-time) and cover a typical single-incident scam. Complex, multi-victim or international situations are quoted individually after a free 15-minute intake call.
Is what you do legal?
Yes. I work only from records you provide and publicly available information about your own situation — I never access accounts, systems, or private data without authorization, and I don't research the other party.
How fast do you deliver?
Most standard engagements are delivered within 5 business days. Urgent situations (active harm, ongoing loss) are prioritized and can be turned around in 48–72 hours for an additional rush fee.
Do I need to file a police report first?
No, but I strongly recommend it in parallel — police reports create the paper trail your bank and card issuer need to process a fraud chargeback. My report is designed to be attached to a police report or FTC filing. If the scam has escalated into threats or you're in danger, contact law enforcement first.
What if I don't have much to give you?
Bring whatever you have. Even a single username, phone number, or wallet address is often enough to build a useful record. Do NOT delete anything — including embarrassing messages — before we speak.
