What tools do you usually use for OSINT?
Right now, I use some like Sherlock or Blackbird to look up usernames, etc.
Installing them is easy; they have a GitHub page that walks you through the process step by step and provides the installation commands.

I also use some tools on Telegram that are connected to a TrueCaller API to verify names and details associated with a phone number.
In addition, I've noticed that social media leaves plenty of clues to follow in your search for information; data leaks—even if they don't include passwords—may include email addresses, which you can use to find out more about someone
