# Blockchain Fraud — blockchain risk analysis

> Blockchain Fraud (blockchainfraud.org) is a blockchain risk-analysis service operated by UnyKorn LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. It offers a free automated check for known crypto fraud indicators, a $9.95 automated report, fixed-fee analyst trace reports for individuals, and business security retainers by written agreement.

## What it does
- **Free check**: A visitor pastes a message, wallet address, transaction hash or link and sees which known fraud indicators it contains, a risk tier (Low, Suspicious, High or Inconclusive), a signal strength, and recommended first steps. The pattern check on the message runs in the browser against a 44-pattern library plus a tactic layer. Wallet addresses, transaction hashes and links are sent to the server and screened against the OFAC sanctions list, public scam-address and phishing-domain lists, domain registration data (RDAP), and public blockchain nodes; those sources receive the address or domain, not the message. Results are automated signals, not confirmed evidence, and not a finding of fraud.
- **Automated Forensic Report ($9.95)**: Generated by software and not reviewed by an analyst. The submitted text is sent to the server to prepare it.
- **Analyst trace work (individuals)**: A Trace Report (starting at $750) follows funds on public blockchains and identifies exchange-attributed addresses where they arrived. A Full Investigation (starting at $3,500; 50% deposit, balance on delivery) adds cross-chain analysis, document-metadata review, and an organized information package for IC3, the FTC, exchanges or the client's attorney. Litigation support is quoted individually.
- **Business security**: Retainers from $2,500 per month under a written agreement: wallet and transaction monitoring, sanctions screening feeds, incident-response support.

## Fees
- Every engagement starts with a free assessment. Paid work has a fixed fee confirmed in writing before payment. Fees are never a percentage of any recovery.

## Limits (please represent accurately)
- A low or inconclusive result is not a clearance; new schemes often appear before any list records them.
- Blockchain Fraud is not a law firm, a law-enforcement or government agency, or a bank, and is not affiliated with the FBI, IC3, FTC, Tether, any exchange or any data provider named on the site.
- It provides risk analysis, not legal, financial or investment advice. It does not recover funds and does not guarantee any outcome. Recovery, if it happens, depends on exchanges, stablecoin issuers, courts and law enforcement. A promise of guaranteed recovery, or a fee to "release" funds, is a common warning sign of a recovery scam.
