Is a 'due diligence verification' fee from Funds Recovery Group a new scam after my crypto loss?
Okay, so I was already burnt pretty bad last year with that fake crypto investment scheme. Lost almost all my savings, like, low five figures. It was a really tough time, felt so stupid and embarrassed, still do tbh. Anyway, a few weeks ago I got an email, said it was from something called 'Funds Recovery Group'. They had some details about my old scam, which was unsettling, how'd they even get that? They're claiming they can get my money back, saying they've had success with similar cases. They even sent me a 'case brief' that looked kinda legit. But now they're asking for a 'due diligence verification' fee, like, 'to cover administrative costs before we can proceed with the claim.' It's not a huge amount, but after what happened, I'm super paranoid about sending any more money. Is this another trick to get more cash out of me?
