Has anyone used Nethertrace to recover funds after a deepfake voice scam?
I'm really at my wit's end here. My mother, bless her heart, fell for a deepfake voice scam a few weeks ago. They spoofed my voice, called her, and convinced her I was in some dire emergency overseas, needing money wired to a crypto address *immediately*. She transferred about 15,000 EUR in Bitcoin before she finally called my actual number and realized her mistake. My heart just sank. I've been trying to figure out what to do, reported it to the police, but they frankly seemed a bit out of their depth with crypto. Someone on a forum mentioned [Nethertrace](https://nethertrace.co) as a specialized firm. I'm hesitant, obviously, because there are so many scams pretending to be recovery services. But their website looks really professional, and they claim to have a good track record. Has anyone here actually used Nethertrace for a similar kind of crypto scam? Especially something involving social engineering like deepfake voice tech? Any advice or experiences would be hugely appreciated.
