Is a 'regulatory compliance fee' from 'Funds Recovery Group' just another scam after I lost my crypto?
Hey everyone, I'm honestly at my wit's end. About six months ago, I fell for a crypto investment scam, lost nearly 10k EUR. It was awful, I was so embarrassed. I reported it to the police here in Belfast, but haven't heard much back. Then, out of the blue, I got an email and then a call from a company called Funds Recovery Group. They said they'd seen my report (which freaked me out a bit, how did they know?) and claimed they could get my money back. They sounded really professional, had all these fancy legal terms. They even sent me a 'case brief'. Now, after a few weeks of back and forth, they're asking for a 'regulatory compliance fee' of 1,500 EUR before they can 'initiate the fund transfer'. They say it's to satisfy international financial regulations. My gut is screaming scam, especially after what happened before, but part of me is desperate to believe them. Is this a common thing? Or am I about to be scammed again?
Is a 'blockchain forensic analysis fee' from 'Funds Recovery Group' just another scam for my lost crypto?
Ugh, so, after losing a pretty significant chunk of crypto to a fake investment platform back in March (still kicking myself, honestly), I got an email last week. It's from 'Funds Recovery Group' and they say they've identified my lost funds and can help me get them back. They sound super official, like they've really tracked everything. But they're asking for a 'blockchain forensic analysis fee' upfront, about $1,500. They said it's to cover the specialized tools and expertise needed to actually unlock and trace the transactions. My partner thinks it's definitely a scam, but a tiny part of me is desperate. I just don't want to lose *more* money. Has anyone dealt with these guys or heard of this fee before? Is this legit or am I about to get scammed again?
Is 'Funds Recovery Group' asking for a 'digital asset protection fee' legit for my lost crypto?
Hi everyone, I'm feeling really desperate. Last year, I lost a significant amount, like, low five figures, in a crypto investment scam. It totally messed me up. I reported it to the local police here in Dusseldorf, but they basically said it's almost impossible to trace. Recently, I got an email out of the blue from a company called 'Funds Recovery Group'. They claimed they saw my case filed somewhere (which sounded a bit vague, tbh) and said they could help me get my money back. We've exchanged a few emails, and now they're asking for a 'digital asset protection fee' before they can 'release' my funds. It's a few thousand Euros. They say it's for legal compliance and to secure the transfer. It sounds official, but after being scammed once, I'm super paranoid. My gut says no, but a part of me really wants to believe it. Has anyone dealt with these guys, or heard of this fee?
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?
Lost my crypto after 'investment' on Funds Recovery Group – is it all gone?
Ok, so i feel like a complete idiot. A few months ago, i fell for a pig butchering scam, lost about 15k USDT. I was absolutely devastated and desperate to get it back. While searching online for help, i stumbled upon a company called 'Funds Recovery Group'. Their website looked professional, talked about blockchain forensics and tracing, and they even had some testimonials. Ngl, i was pretty vulnerable. They convinced me they could help, but said i needed to 'invest' more crypto with them to cover recovery fees and 'liquidity' in case the scammer tried to move funds again. So i sent them another 5k USDT. Now they've stopped replying. Their website is still up, but my emails go unanswered. Have i just been scammed twice? Is there ANY hope for my total 20k USDT?
