The HAPI decentralized security protocol team has released a beta version of the Scamfari OSINT platform to collect information about cryptocurrency wallets associated with fraud, sanctions violations, terrorist financing and other crimes.
The https://t.co/uzlIrv2hzY platform was created by @hapi_labs Software Development Department to detect crypto wallets associated with terrorist and sanctioned activities. We are pleased that @CyberpoliceUA is our partner in this important initiative! https://t.co/gEbjJyI3UN

The project was supported by the cyber police of Ukraine, which will work on blocking such addresses.
Users are registered through a Telegram bot, after which they fill out a form and send a wallet to analysts with confirmation of its use for criminal purposes.
HAPI employees manually verify this data. If the information is confirmed, the whistleblowers are rewarded in the project’s native tokens. In the future, the distribution of rewards is planned to be automated using smart contracts. The possibility of switching from a HAPI token to a stablecoin is also being discussed.
Since the launch of Scamfari OSINT, they have received more than 15,000 addresses, according to team analysts, including donation wallets in support of Russian mercenaries fighting in Ukraine.
In the future, HAPI has not ruled out the use of AI to automate report validation.
“Now we are loading the received reports into GPT-4 – at the moment it looks very raw, but promising. In the near future, this may be useful, ”said the project team in a comment to CoinDesk.
Recall that in the summer of 2022, HAPI Labs analysts, with the participation of the Ukrainian cyber police, managed to block dozens of cryptocurrency accounts for helping to foment Russian military aggression.
