Locating A Telegram Account By A Mobile Number
If you have a subjects mobile number, then it can be easily searched on a site such as OSINT Industries, or any of the others shown on the Mobile Phone page of our website to locate any Telegram account linked to it. Or if you are using a burner phone, simply by putting the number into the contacts of your phone and then opening the Telegram app, selecting the Contacts or New Message functions, and anyone on Telegram from your contacts will be shown, which is done without them being notified.
Be aware that whilst the account holders name is displayed as it was put it on your contacts, under their profile image and mobile number on Telegram is their Telegram username, which may open up a new area to research.
By locating an account for a user, you will now know some additional information using this method, including;
- The account holders profile photo or avatar, which can then be checked using a reverse image search or used to
match against other online accounts
- The account holders welcome phrase, which can then be searched or used to match against other online accounts
- The date and time an account holder was last active on Telegram
