Romance Scam Investigation — Find Out Who Is Really Behind the Profile
Someone you met online says they live in Thailand. The relationship feels real, but there have been requests for money, reasons you can never visit, and a video call that never quite happens. We verify the identity behind the profile and whether the person and the story exist on the ground, using open sources and field visits, so you can decide on facts.
Signs clients report
No single sign proves anything; clients usually contact us when several appear together.
- Requests for money for a medical bill, a customs fee, a visa, a family emergency or a business opportunity
- Excuses that prevent video calls or meeting in person
- A profile whose photos appear elsewhere under another name
- A story that shifts: job, city, family details
- Pressure to move the conversation to a private app quickly
What we can establish
- Whether the photos and profile belong to a real person, or are taken from someone else
- Whether a person of that name and description lives and works where claimed, confirmed by visiting
- Whether the destination accounts for your transfers appear in public scam reports
- Whether a claimed business, hospital stay or customs problem is consistent with public facts
- If the person is real: their actual circumstances, as far as can be observed lawfully in public
If you have already sent money
Contact your bank at once to attempt to stop onward transfers, keep every slip, chat and profile, and report to the police in your country and, where Thai accounts are involved, to Thailand's anti-online-scam hotline 1441. Recovery is run by banks and authorities; our role is evidence and tracing that gives those processes weight. We cannot promise recovery and will tell you plainly when the chances are low.
What we never do
We do not contact the person, do not access their accounts or phone, do not pay anyone for data and do not pose as you. Everything comes from open sources and lawful observation.

Frequently asked questions
Can you tell me quickly whether it is a scam?
Often an initial open-source check within a few days gives a strong indication. Field confirmation in Thailand follows if needed.
I'm embarrassed. Is this confidential?
Completely. Many of our clients are in the same situation. Your identity and the findings stay between you and us.
Can you find the scammer and get my money back?
We can often trace accounts, numbers and public data far enough to help a police report, but recovery is run by banks and the authorities and we cannot promise it.
What if the person turns out to be real?
Then you learn their actual circumstances and can decide with facts. We report honestly either way.
