A company called 'Claim Solutions Ltd' wants an 'escrow processing fee' – is this a recovery scam?
Hi everyone, I'm really at my wit's end here. Back in November, I lost about £4,500 to a fake crypto investment platform. It was devastating, I know I should have been more careful. I reported it to my bank and the FCA, but haven't heard much back. Yesterday, I got an email from a company called 'Claim Solutions Ltd'. They said they found my case through a 'public database' and that they can recover my funds. They've been quite professional so far, sent me some documents, and even showed me a screenshot of what looks like my lost funds in an 'escrow' account. But now they're asking for a £350 'escrow processing fee' to release the money. They say it's fully refundable once the funds are transferred. Is this legit? Or am I about to be scammed again? I'm so paranoid now, I just want my money back.
