How ChainPatrol handles it

How ChainPatrol handles it

One service covers every step, so your team reviews results instead of working a queue.

One service covers every step, so your team reviews results instead of working a queue.

01

01

Find

We monitor for impersonation of your league, teams and people across websites, newly registered domains, Instagram, TikTok, X, Facebook, YouTube, Telegram, search ads and app stores.

02

02

Block

Once we confirm a phishing or malicious website, we block it across security integrations within minutes. Major browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Edge and Firefox typically block it within 1–2 hours through Google Safe Browsing, so fans see a warning while the takedown runs. Blocking applies to web domains and URLs. Fake accounts and profiles are removed through platform takedowns.

03

03

File

We file takedowns with platforms, hosts and registrars on your behalf, with the evidence each one requires.

04

04

Follow up

We follow up with platforms until we’ve confirmed each case has been removed, and escalate and re-file whenever a provider stalls or rejects.

05

Ongoing reporting and visibility

You can follow every case in the ChainPatrol app, with a timestamped history of each step, and export case data as CSV or through the API.
