Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have been the victim of crypto fraud?

Common red flags include unsolicited investment offers, requests to pay in crypto only, promises of guaranteed profits, and pressure to act quickly.

Can crypto assets be frozen or recovered through the courts?

Yes. UK courts recognise cryptoassets as property and have granted freezing and disclosure orders in crypto fraud cases.

What if the scammer is based abroad?

Many crypto frauds involve offshore jurisdictions. We regularly coordinate with foreign counsel and apply for international relief to pursue global enforcement.

Victims of crypto fraud may be entitled to civil or criminal remedies. It is critical to act quickly if you have suffered a loss. Digital assets can be rapidly dissipated or mixed across chains. We understand the value of swift and early legal intervention to increase your chances of asset recovery.
