Chainalysis lists all of our current available openings on our careers website. Our talent team will not reach out with unsolicited offers of work via SMS /WhatsApp /Telegram messages etc. They will only contact you through our official chainalysis.com email domain and/or verified LinkedIn profiles. Scammers have created multiple look-alike domains and even impersonated the names of real team members in support of their scams.

What to do if you have been the victim of a scam

If you fall victim to an online scam, whether involving someone pretending to be from Chainalysis or not, it is best practice to immediately report this to your local law enforcement agency. Chainalysis is unable to provide individual assistance with recovering funds or resolving fraud cases.

In the United States, you can find more information about reporting scams on the FBI’s website or at the FTC’s fraud center.
