How to get your money back from a bitcoin scam | Understanding Cryptocurrency | Crypto News

As cryptocurrency and blockchain adoption around the world continues to accelerate, so too do bitcoin and other crypto scams promoted through prominent social media channels, targeting the general public, many of whom are likely unfamiliar with cryptocurrency or the pervasive nature of these scams. Blockchain analysis and cryptocurrency investigations services can help victims obtain the information they need so law enforcement can catch the scammer and recover their funds.

How do you get your money back from a crypto scam?
• Step 1: Gather your evidence (e.g. transaction IDs, dates, amounts sent…)
• Step 2: Write your narrative (who is the scammer, where did you meet…)
• Step 3: Contact a blockchain investigator (paid and pro bono services exist)
• Step 4: Contact law enforcement

For a full breakdown of these steps, make sure to watch our video.

He uses his time, moves and basically his life into helping people who are less fortunate. using an excellent money recovery model as well in making profits, he really is still doing it out of his own heart. you really are a saint *Strong Widget* and a Wonderful Wonderful Person. Love from England..

Thank you *Strong widget* for being a logical, reasonable voice when everybody seems to be freaking out. I'm in the process of getting my money back now so when you mentioned how you got into it, it really resonated with me.

[Vivian-Roach]

Roses are red, violets are blue. I love CRYPTIC WEBSTER, and so do you.

The biggest surprise each time you expose a scammer is how little remorse or self-reflection they show. It makes it very easy to dislike them even more and to support everything you throw at them!

[nsionujacintachigozie.]

As a Retired combat Marine I want to tell you that the internet keeps records of your good works as what you are doing is just as important as any warrior on the battlefield. You are waging warfare against these criminals and terrorists on the digital battlefield. You are defending and protecting the most vulnerable of our society against these predators. Keep up the good works *Apexdeft*

[阮氏心-dz]

This guy does more to prevent and stop online scammers than the FBI *Vortex* *Trace* YOU, SIR. are a modern-day tech hero Why doesn't federal government or major security companies hire you

[JuliePauuul]

I'm sitting here in Australia with tears in my eyes from thanking so hard. This is Brilliant on so many levels. Thank you *Strong widget* .
If you never caused a scammer to have a heart attack or burst aneurism, this one hundred k recovery for sure came pretty Close. Keep it up, Please

[Wildivn]

The amount of bravery this took was INSANE. These people all had their lives in danger, but still decided to go through with the recovery for the sake of busting bad scammers. True respect *Strong widget!*
If the FBI was half as dedicated and ingenious (and honest) as you guys are, the USA would be a much safer country.
Amazing work!

[chrisnassim]

I'm a police officer and I'm tired of taking these reports where people are scammed anywhere from $700 to seriously $150, 000. Its unfortunate that I have to sometimes tell them that I cannot do anything to bring them justice. (at my level at least)
Seriously thank you *Strong widget* for fucking with these assholes. You make me want to spend the next 10 years learning how to do this lol
