How ChainPatrol handles it

How ChainPatrol handles it

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

01

01

Find

We monitor for impersonation of your brand across websites, social platforms, messaging apps such as Telegram and Discord, app stores and ads.

02

02

Block

Once a malicious website or phishing link is confirmed, it’s flagged in wallets and security integrations within minutes and in browsers typically within 1–2 hours, so customers see a warning while the takedown runs. Blocking applies to web domains and URLs. Fake social profiles and chat accounts 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 as it moves. Each month you also get a report of what’s been removed, what’s blocked with a takedown in progress, what’s still live and why, and what’s waiting on your approval.

Applied to your policy

Detection and takedown rules are set around your legal standard. Assets that use your name, logo or claim official affiliation are pursued. Commentary, community discussion and fan accounts that don’t claim to be you are left alone, so your team isn’t policing your own community. Automation handles high-volume threats at scale. Cases that need judgment, such as fan accounts, staff profiles and cases a provider is stalling on, go to our operations team. Decisions that need you come back to you for a quick approval.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Partners are tracked by name and profile as part of employee and executive protection.

They can, through a reporting link or bot you share, and reports go into the same review and takedown process.

Fake investor outreach is a recurring pattern we see, and your name carries weight with founders, which is why it's borrowed.
