A Case Study in Persistence, Expertise, and Blockchain Innovation
Introduction
In the volatile world of cryptocurrency, scams are rampant—but recovery is possible with the right tools and guidance. This case study explores how Scam Help, a trusted resource for digital fraud victims, empowered a client to reclaim €50,000 lost to a crypto investment scam. By focusing on meticulous documentation, blockchain analysis, and collaboration with key platforms, Scam Help transformed confusion into action and loss into resolution.
The Victim’s Story: A Costly Lesson in Trust
Meet Anna, a 34-year-old marketing consultant from Berlin. In early 2025, Anna responded to a social media ad for Crypto Wealth Pro, a platform promising “guaranteed 300% returns on Ethereum investments.” After investing €10,000, her account dashboard showed “profits” ballooning to €50,000.
When Anna tried to withdraw, the platform demanded a €5,000 “verification fee.” She paid, only to face endless delays—and eventual radio silence. The website disappeared, leaving Anna heartbroken and financially stranded.
How Scam Help Empowered Recovery
Step 1: Evidence Gathering & Strategy
Anna contacted Scam Help, who guided her to compile:
- Screenshots of transactions, communications, and the scam platform’s interface.
- Blockchain transaction IDs and wallet addresses.
- A timeline of events, including payment receipts and false promises.
Scam Help identified critical red flags: Crypto Wealth Pro had no verifiable team, plagiarized website content, and used privacy-focused domains to hide its operators.
Step 2: Blockchain Forensics & Documentation
Using advanced tracing tools, Scam Help mapped Anna’s Ethereum transactions across multiple wallets. Their analysis revealed:
- Funds were funneled to a Binance exchange account linked to a fake identity.
- The scammer used decentralized exchanges (DEXs) to obscure the trail, but key transaction patterns remained visible.
Scam Help compiled a detailed Recovery Dossier, including:
- A step-by-step breakdown of the fund flow.
- Wallet addresses and exchange identifiers.
- A professional summary of the scam’s mechanics.
Step 3: Platform Collaboration & Victim Advocacy
Scam Help coached Anna on submitting her dossier to Binance’s fraud team, emphasizing urgency and clarity. Within days, Binance froze the scammer’s account and initiated an internal review. Leveraging Scam Help’s evidence, Anna successfully reclaimed her €50,000.
