If you do a bit of intelligence (OSINT) and all you have is a nickname or username, I have a python tool that will please you.

It's called Nexfil and it allows you to flush out user profiles from a whole bunch of services, based on a name or a list of names. In less than 20 seconds, more than 350 sites are reviewed and the results are automatically saved in a text file.

The purpose of this tool is to establish a list of sites where the person you are looking for has been able to create an account with his or her nickname, but you can also use it for yourself in order to secure certain sites where you have forgotten to reserve your nickname.

To install Nexfil, open a terminal and clone the following repository:

git clone

And install the necessary dependencies to run the python script.

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Then to perform a search, use the -u parameter like this:

python3 nexfil.py -u PutUsername

Then go to the nexfil directory:

cd nexfil


And here is the trick
