Understand before you act
Educational resources on cryptocurrency scams, preserving evidence, reporting, tracing limitations, and recovery-scam prevention.
Recognizing Cryptocurrency Scams
Common patterns in cryptocurrency fraud — impersonation, guaranteed returns, pressure tactics, and fake platforms — and how to spot them before funds move.
Preserving Blockchain Evidence
What to capture immediately after a suspected incident: transaction hashes, wallet addresses, correspondence, and timestamps, and why early preservation matters.
Reporting Suspected Fraud
How and where to report suspected cryptocurrency fraud, what information recipients typically need, and realistic expectations about response.
The Limitations of Transaction Tracing
What tracing can and cannot establish, the role of mixing services and privacy chains, and why tracing is not the same as recovery.
Exchange Reporting Processes
How exchanges and custodians typically handle reports of suspected fraud, what evidence they expect, and why outcomes vary.
Recovery Scam Prevention
How secondary recovery scams work, the warning signs, and how to protect yourself after a loss from those who promise what cannot be promised.
Wallet Security Fundamentals
Practical wallet security practices — custody models, multi-signature setups, hardware keys, and operational hygiene for remaining assets.
An Evidence Documentation Primer
How to document digital evidence with source references and integrity, so that findings can be relied upon and independently reviewed.
Understanding Jurisdiction in Crypto Cases
Why jurisdiction matters in cross-border cryptocurrency incidents, and how it shapes realistic recovery pathways and reporting options.
Education is part of protection.
Understanding how scams work — and how recovery scams target people who have already lost — is one of the strongest defenses available.
