Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about cryptocurrency recovery and our services

Can cryptocurrency really be traced and recovered?

+

Yes. While cryptocurrency is often thought to be anonymous, blockchain technology creates a permanent record of all transactions. Using Chainalysis and other forensic tools, we can trace cryptocurrency through complex transaction paths, identify where it ends up, and take legal action to freeze and recover the funds. We've successfully recovered over £50 million for our clients.

How long does the recovery process take?

+

The timeline varies depending on the complexity of your case. Simple cases where funds remain on exchanges may be resolved in 2-4 months. More complex cases involving multiple jurisdictions or sophisticated money laundering may take 6-12 months. We begin investigating immediately and keep you updated throughout the process.

What is Chainalysis and how does it help my case?

+

Chainalysis is the world's leading blockchain intelligence platform, trusted by law enforcement agencies, regulators, and financial institutions globally. It allows us to trace cryptocurrency transactions across multiple blockchains, identify connections to known entities, and generate court-admissible evidence. This technology has helped recover over $34 billion in illicit funds worldwide.

What are your fees and payment terms?

+

We offer a free initial consultation to assess your case. Our fee structure is typically based on a combination of fixed fees for investigation work and success-based fees for recovered amounts. We discuss all fees transparently before you engage our services, and we never charge upfront fees before conducting a thorough case assessment.

What types of scams do you handle?

+

We handle all types of cryptocurrency and financial fraud including: fake crypto exchanges, investment scams, Ponzi schemes, romance/pig butchering scams, fake brokers, NFT scams, DeFi exploits, business email compromise, wire fraud, and unauthorized banking transactions. If you've lost money to online fraud, we can help.

Do you work internationally?

+

Yes. As part of ETL Global with presence in 60+ countries, we can pursue cases internationally. Cryptocurrency fraud often crosses borders, and our international network enables us to work with legal authorities, exchanges, and financial institutions worldwide to maximize recovery chances.

What information do you need to start my case?

+

To begin, we need: details of how you were scammed, transaction records (bank statements, cryptocurrency transaction IDs, wallet addresses), any communications with the fraudsters, and documentation of your investments. Don't worry if you don't have everything - we can help you gather necessary evidence during our investigation.

Is my case confidential?

+

Absolutely. As SRA-regulated solicitors, we are bound by strict professional duties of confidentiality. All information you share with us is protected by legal privilege and will not be disclosed without your consent, except where required by law or necessary to pursue your recovery case.

Common Questions About Recovering Money from Scams

Honest answers from our fraud recovery specialists

Can I recover money lost in a crypto scam? +

Yes, in many cases funds can be traced and partially or fully recovered through blockchain forensics, legal action, and regulatory complaints. Recovery success depends on how quickly you act, the payment method, and which exchanges received the funds. We offer a free case review to give you an honest assessment.

Can I get my money back from a pig-butchering scam? +

Pig-butchering scams involve funds sent to cryptocurrency wallets. Our investigators trace the funds through the blockchain to the exchange account where they landed. We then submit a legal freeze request to that exchange backed by a forensic report. The sooner you act after the scam, the higher the recovery chances.

I sent money by bank transfer to a scammer can I get it back? +

Yes. Bank transfers to scammers may be recoverable through Authorised Push Payment (APP) fraud claims. Under UK PSR 2024 rules, banks must reimburse eligible APP fraud victims up to £85,000. We prepare and submit the full fraud complaint on your behalf. Recall requests are most effective in the first 72 hours; contact us immediately.

Is it too late to get my money back if it happened months ago? +

Not necessarily. Chargeback time limits are typically 120 days from the transaction date. Blockchain forensic investigations and legal recovery actions can be pursued for years. APP fraud claims can also be filed retrospectively. Contact us for a free review even if time has passed, there are often still viable options.

Do I have to pay upfront for fraud recovery services? +

No. We work on a no win, no fee basis the initial case review is completely free, and you only pay a success fee of 10-15% if funds are actually recovered. There is no upfront payment. Warning: any company demanding thousands upfront before doing any work is almost certainly a scam.

Can I report a crypto scam if I don't know who the scammer is? +

Yes. You only need the wallet address you sent funds to. Our forensics process traces the transaction trail to identify exchange accounts, which hold identity data. We then pursue the account holder's identity through legal channels and report to Action Fraud (UK), FBI IC3 (US), and Europol as appropriate.
