Uncovering the Truth Behind the Number
Voice over IP (VOIP) services like Google Voice, TextNow, Pinger, and WhatsApp are commonly used by individuals attempting to mask their identities or avoid traditional call tracing. At Covert Results, we specialize in uncovering the digital breadcrumbs left behind by VOIP communication—transforming technical data into courtroom-ready evidence.
Real-World Use Cases
✔ Criminal Defense: Demonstrating that a client did not control a specific VOIP number
✔ Civil Litigation: Linking harassing calls or texts to a party in a family or business dispute
✔ Human Trafficking Investigations: Uncovering communication between recruiters and victims
✔ Fraud Detection: Exposing fake business accounts or online scams
What Is VOIP Forensics?
VOIP forensics involves identifying, analyzing, and documenting communication through cloud-based platforms that don’t rely on traditional phone carriers. These services often create layers of anonymity—but they also leave behind traceable digital records, including:
✔ IP addresses
✔ Email addresses used to register accounts
✔ Device identifiers and geolocation metadata
✔ Call and message logs
✔ Account creation and usage history
✔ Google or Apple device tokens
