These tools didn't start in a lab. They started with a scam.
In 2026, I was defrauded through a Facebook Marketplace listing. The seller was sophisticated — fake shipping companies, a convincing website, stolen payment. When I tried to report it, I ran into a wall: no tools built for people like me, no easy way to document the infrastructure, no way to connect my case to the dozens of others being run by the same operation.
"So I built the tools myself. Not because I'm a developer — but because I'm an IT engineer who got angry enough to learn."
What started as personal investigation tools became SBN Command — a full eight-module investigation platform tested on real cases, against real scammers, with real results reported to federal agencies.
The face-matching system has already linked stolen identities across multiple scam operations. The evidence packaging has been submitted to the FTC, FBI IC3, and local law enforcement. The file carving module has recovered deleted evidence from compromised devices. Every module is built for the way investigations actually work — not the way developers imagine they do.
Most OSINT tools are built by developers who've never investigated a fraud case. SBN Command is built by an investigator who built it because he needed it. That's the difference.
