Check out this piece my colleagues and I worked on: Cambridge Analytica's cycle of scamming voters to getting scammed, their website got over-taken by ads - and for the techy-investigators, learn about how to discover what - and who - is behind a website
🚨Cambridge Analytica's website resurfaced in 2023, but something was off. Using #OSINT tools, we found that a Japanese company reused it to redirect traffic to their page. ➡️Explore this case study & learn tools to investigate compromised websites.🕵️♂️
