The Double Scam

David lost $98,000 worth of Ethereum to an investment scam. Desperate to recover his funds, he contacted what appeared to be a legitimate crypto recovery service. Unfortunately, this "recovery service" was also a scam.

Key Takeaways

How to Identify Fake Recovery Services

• No Upfront Fees: Legitimate recovery services typically work on a contingency basis (only charge if successful)
• No Guarantees: Be wary of services that guarantee 100% recovery before any investigation
• Check Credentials: Verify the company has real certifications and credentials (not just fake badges)
• Research Thoroughly: Search for reviews and check with consumer protection agencies
• No Pressure Tactics: Legitimate services don't use high-pressure sales tactics or create false urgency
• Realistic Timelines: Recovery takes time; be suspicious of services promising instant recovery
• Transparent Process: Legitimate services explain their process and methods clearly

• Ask for upfront fees before any work is done
• Guarantee 100% success rates
• Pressure victims to act immediately
• Lack proper credentials or certifications
• Use high-pressure sales tactics
