Expert guides to help you understand cryptocurrency recovery, recognize scams, and take immediate action.
Learn to identify the scams: Investment fraud, romance scams, pig butchering, phishing attacks, rug pulls, fake recovery services, and more. Understanding how scammers operate is the first step to protection and recovery. We break down each scam type, explain warning signs, and show exactly how scammers take your money. Knowledge is power—knowing what happened to you helps us recover it.
Learn about Investment Scams →Follow the permanent record: Every cryptocurrency transaction is recorded permanently on the blockchain. This immutable ledger is your roadmap to recovery. We explain UTXO analysis, wallet clustering, exchange tracing, and how we use these forensic techniques to locate your stolen assets. The blockchain never forgets—and neither do we. This transparency that makes crypto amazing also makes recovery possible.
Explore Blockchain Forensics →What to expect step by step: Free assessment (24 hours) → Blockchain investigation (days to weeks) → Exchange coordination (weeks to months) → Fund recovery. We set realistic expectations based on your specific situation. Some cases move quickly; others require patience and persistence. Understanding the timeline helps you make informed decisions about your recovery.
Understand Recovery Timelines →Act fast—timing matters: Stop communication with scammer. Document everything. Gather evidence. Secure your other accounts. Report to authorities. Contact a recovery specialist. The first 24-48 hours are critical. Funds are most recoverable before they're withdrawn from exchanges. We guide you through each action to maximize your recovery chances.
Immediate Action Steps →Prevent future losses: Self-custody wallets, hardware security, private key protection, phishing awareness, smart contract approvals, and exchange security best practices. After recovery, protection is paramount. We share the security strategies that protect real cryptocurrency holders—because your restored funds deserve better protection than they had before.
Asset Security Guide →Know your options: Civil litigation, regulatory complaints, law enforcement coordination, international legal cooperation, and civil remedies.

Answers to the questions we hear most from cryptocurrency fraud victims.
No. Cryptocurrency doesn't expire on the blockchain. Funds are traceable indefinitely. However, the longer ago the scam occurred, the more movement the funds may have undergone. We assess each case individually. Even "old" cases can result in recovery if funds haven't been completely cashed out and dispersed.
You're not alone. Many victims lose twice—first to the original scammer, then to fake recovery services. We can investigate these secondary scams too. Unlike the scammers, we charge nothing upfront. We only charge when we actually recover your funds and they're in your bank account.
All major cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), USDT, USDC, BNB, Solana (SOL), XRP, and more. We trace assets across all major blockchains: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Polygon, Binance Smart Chain, Solana, and others. Multi-chain recovery is possible when funds have been swapped across networks.
Verify our registration: Hong Kong Company CR 2894261, incorporated November 19, 2019. We operate under Hong Kong law with full regulatory transparency. We have no upfront fees—that's how you know we're confident. Scammers ask for money upfront. We only charge when you get your money back.
It depends on your situation. Initial assessment: 24 hours. Blockchain forensics: days to weeks. Exchange coordination: weeks to months. Legal proceedings: potentially longer. Some recoveries happen quickly; others require patience. We always give you honest timelines based on your specific case.
Your recovered funds are transferred to your bank account. We recommend moving crypto to a self-custody wallet (like Trust Wallet) for maximum security going forward. We provide security guidance to ensure your recovered funds stay recovered. Your financial restoration is just the beginning of your crypto security journey.
