Why you need this course

Please read this before enrolling.

Tinder isn’t just a dating app it’s a hunting ground for romance scammers, organized fraud groups, drug sellers, extortionists, and other bad actors who weaponize trust and disappear before they’re caught.

In this course, you’ll follow Tony Lisek’s real-world investigative approach, learning how to turn a single Tinder profile into actionable intelligence by layering multiple OSINT techniques and uncovering the digital footprint behind the persona.

This is not a tool-by-tool walkthrough.

Instead, you’ll go on a true investigative journey the same way real investigators work cases. You’ll see how small data points evolve into leads, how pivots are made, and how multiple sources are combined to build attribution.

Using real-world workflows from corporate fraud, law enforcement, and insider-threat investigations, this course teaches you how to think like an investigator not just use tools.
