Types of Cryptocurrency Fraud We Investigate

Cryptocurrency fraud comes in many forms. Our fraud investigators have experience across a wide range of cases, including both simple scams and complex financial deception schemes.

Fake ICOs and Investment Schemes

Fraudsters launch fake initial coin offerings (ICOs) to attract investors and disappear with funds. We investigate these scams, uncover their operators, and trace stolen assets.

Pump-and-Dump Schemes in Crypto Markets

Pump-and-dump schemes in cryptocurrency markets manipulate prices by inflating coins before selling them off. Our investigations reveal patterns of manipulation and highlight those responsible.

Crypto Phishing and Social Engineering Attacks

Crypto phishing and social engineering attacks trick victims into sharing private keys or login credentials. We identify security breaches, document digital trails, and uncover the source of the fraud.

Pig Butchering and Romance Scams

Pig butchering scams in crypto relationships or investments use emotional manipulation to convince victims to invest. We gather communication logs, financial evidence, and blockchain trails to build cases.

Crypto Romance Scams and Online Abuse

We investigate crypto romance scams where victims are lured into fraudulent investment opportunities. Our work exposes the networks behind these operations.
