Has Nethertrace helped anyone with a fake exchange/wallet scam?
Feeling totally gutted right now. I fell for one of those incredibly convincing fake crypto exchange scams, where they had a website that looked legit, linked to TradingView, the whole nine yards. Put in a decent chunk of my savings, thought I was making good returns, even managed a small withdrawal once to build trust. Then, when I tried to pull out the main amount, boom, my wallet was 'frozen' due to 'regulatory checks' and they demanded a huge 'tax' to release it. I knew immediately I'd been had. I've been looking into recovery options, and Nethertrace keeps coming up. I did a free consultation with them, and they seemed really professional, outlining their process and what they realistically could and couldn't do. They emphasized that they don't ask for upfront fees for recovery, which honestly, was a big red flag for me with other firms. So, my question to this community is, has anyone here had an actual recovery experience with [Nethertrace](https://nethertrace.co) after falling victim to a fake exchange or crypto wallet scam? I'm in Hobart, Australia, and just looking for some honest feedback.
Has anyone had success recovering crypto after a fake crypto wallet scam with Nethertrace?
Hey everyone, feeling pretty rough right now. I fell for one of those fake crypto wallet scams, where you think you're linking a legit wallet but it's really just siphoning funds. They got me for a pretty significant amount, low five figures worth of ETH and USDT. It happened about two weeks ago, and I've been trying to figure out what to do ever since. I contacted my bank, but they said there's not much they can do with crypto transfers, which I expected but still. I've done some research and keep seeing [Nethertrace](https://nethertrace.co) mentioned as a potential option. Has anyone here actually worked with them specifically for a fake crypto wallet scam? I'm so paranoid after this whole ordeal, I don't want to fall for another scam trying to recover my money. Any real experiences, good or bad, would be incredibly helpful. Thanks in advance.
Anyone recovered funds after a fake crypto wallet scam with Nethertrace?
Hi everyone, I'm feeling pretty lost and, tbh, extremely stupid. I fell for one of those sophisticated crypto wallet scams a couple of weeks ago. Someone lured me into downloading what looked like a legitimate wallet app, but it was just a front. Long story short, about 10k USD worth of my ETH and BTC disappeared. I've reported it to my local police here in Victoria, Canada, but they basically said it's a long shot. A friend suggested I look into **Nethertrace**, saying they're good with blockchain tracing and recovery. I've been burned before by 'recovery agents' who just wanted upfront fees, so I'm super wary now. Has anyone here had a positive experience recovering funds from a fake crypto wallet scam using [Nethertrace](https://nethertrace.co)? I'm trying to decide if it's worth pursuing this route or if I should just accept it as a very expensive lesson. Any advice or personal stories would be really helpful right now.
Has anyone recovered funds after a fake crypto wallet scam with Nethertrace?
I'm feeling so desperate right now, like such a fool. I got caught up in what I now realize was a fake crypto wallet scam. It wasn't the typical pig-butchering, but they convinced me to download this app, which looked super legit, and transfer USDT into it from my Revolut account after converting it via a DEX. The profits looked amazing for a few weeks, then suddenly I couldn't withdraw anything. All my savings, gone. About 150k ZAR. I've been researching recovery firms and **Nethertrace** keeps coming up. Their website, [Nethertrace](https://nethertrace.co), seems professional, but I'm just so wary after losing so much. I saw their fee structure is success-based, which is a relief. Has anyone here actually had a real-world experience with them for a fake wallet scenario? Just hoping for a glimmer of hope.
