My MetaMask wallet was drained after clicking a link, can ChainAbuse actually help or is it just another scam?
I'm feeling so desperate right now. Last week, I received a phishing email that looked *exactly* like a notification from Kraken. Without thinking, I clicked on a link in it, confirmed a transaction (I thought it was just enabling something minor), and within minutes, my entire MetaMask wallet was completely drained. Everything. My ETH, some NFTs, even my small amount of AVAX. I reported it to the FBI IC3 because I'm in Germany, and saw their international reporting option, but haven't heard anything back. I also submitted a report to ChainAbuse, but honestly, I'm just so wary now. After getting scammed once, every 'recovery' service or helpful-looking website triggers my alarm bells. Has anyone actually had success using ChainAbuse after a wallet drain? Or is it just a database for stolen funds, not an active recovery tool? I'm trying to figure out if there's any real hope here or if I should just accept it as a very expensive lesson.
