A company called 'Global Financial Recovery' wants an 'anti-terrorism financing check' fee. Is this another scam?
Hey everyone, I'm kinda desperate here. I got absolutely wiped out by a crypto investment scam about six months ago – lost pretty much all my savings, a low five-figure sum. I reported it to the local police here in Strasbourg, but honestly, nothing really happened. Then a few weeks ago, I was contacted by 'Global Financial Recovery'. They said they had tracked my funds and could get them back, even knew a bunch of details about my initial scam, which felt legit at first. They've been super persistent. Now they're saying the funds are ready to be released but I need to pay an 'anti-terrorism financing check' fee, supposedly to clear the transfer through some international compliance thing. It's like 2,000 euros. I'm so scared this is just another layer of the same nightmare. Is this for real, or am I about to get scammed again?
