Common Cryptocurrency Scams We Help Investigate
Our cryptocurrency scam investigations cover several types of schemes involving digital assets, wallets, trading platforms, and blocked withdrawals. We review the available evidence and trace relevant transactions where the information supports further investigation.
Fake Cryptocurrency Wallets
Fake cryptocurrency wallets can imitate legitimate apps or websites while collecting private keys, seed phrases, or login details. We review wallet activity, transaction records, communications, and evidence to understand how assets were accessed and transferred.
Crypto Withdrawal Scams
Crypto withdrawal scams occur when platforms demand additional payments, fees, taxes, or deposits before allowing users to access funds. We review platform communications, payment records, wallet addresses, and transactions to establish circumstances surrounding blocked withdrawals.
Frozen Wallet Scams
Frozen wallet scams involve claims that cryptocurrency has been locked because of security checks, compliance issues, taxes, or account restrictions. We examine wallet activity, platform communications, transaction history, and payment requests to determine what happened.
Unregulated Broker Scams
Unregulated broker scams can involve platforms presenting themselves as legitimate trading services while accepting cryptocurrency deposits and restricting withdrawals. We review account records, communications, payment details, platform information, and blockchain transactions connected to reported losses.
DeFi Scams
DeFi scams can involve fraudulent platforms, malicious smart contracts, misleading investment opportunities, or unauthorized wallet approvals. We examine contract interactions, wallet activity, transaction records, and platform information to understand how digital assets moved during incidents.
Crypto Tax Scams
Crypto tax scams often appear after an investment platform shows profits and demands additional tax payments before withdrawals. We examine payment requests, platform records, communications, wallet addresses, and transaction history to identify activity surrounding losses.
Stay Safe – Verify any cryptocurrency scam with official agencies and never share sensitive information with unknown sources.
