RENSOMWARE-STYLE SEXTORTION CASE TRACED TO EXCHANGE ACCOUNT
CASE OVERVIEW
A cyber criminal broke into a personal email account of a female business owner. The attacker was able to acquire her personal information and her private photos.
SITUATION
The stolen material was used in a sextortion attack against the owner of the email account. The attacker demanded payment in crypto in exchange for not misusing or publishing the material.
OUR WORK
The victim contacted us and we discussed several possible options on how to proceed. As part of the strategy, we made an extremely small payment to the attacker’s crypto address — nowhere near the amount demanded.
OUTCOME
Several months later, the funds started moving. We traced the transaction flow to an individual account at a known crypto exchange. The exchange cooperated with the process, and the case resulted in a criminal charge filed by the victim’s local law enforcement agency.

OUR WORK
We conducted a forensic investigation into the accountant’s crypto activity. This included tracing the relevant transactions, reviewing the on-chain movements, and identifying the flow of funds across the assets involved.

We prepared a forensic report containing the relevant on-chain evidence. The report was then used in criminal and civil proceedings against the accountant.
