Lost my crypto savings after a fake "yield farming" offer on a DeFi platform (DexoSwap) – can I get it back?
Hey everyone, feeling completely devastated. I was trying to get into DeFi and saw an offer for some really high APY yield farming on a platform called DexoSwap. Looked legit, had a sleek interface, and even linked to what seemed like a genuine Telegram group. I connected my MetaMask wallet (which had most of my crypto, like 10k EUR mostly in ETH and USDT) and approved a transaction for 'staking'.
Next thing I know, my entire wallet is empty. All my ETH, all my USDT, gone. This happened a few days ago, late evening here in Paris. I tried to revoke permissions on MetaMask but it was too late. I've reported it to MetaMask and my local police, but they just kinda shrugged. I'm desperate. Is there any way to trace these funds or get them back? Has anyone had success with something like this?
