About the Scam

What is a Recovery Scam?

  • Recovery scams target people who have already been defrauded. Fake "blockchain analysts," "recovery specialists," or fraudulent attorneys reach out after an initial loss, offering to retrieve stolen crypto.
  • They typically require an upfront fee paid in cryptocurrency, or ask victims to send more crypto to "unlock" or "verify" their original funds.
  • Scammers find victims through social media, crypto forums, complaint boards, and even paid search ads targeting people searching for recovery help after a loss.
  • Once the fee is paid, the "recovery agent" disappears, taking even more money from someone who is already a victim.
  • CyberJustice Law Group is a licensed U.S. law firm. We do not cold-call victims, and we never require cryptocurrency as a condition of representation.

Our Approach

How We Help

Sue the Scammers

We trace your crypto through every wallet and exchange, then file civil lawsuits and seek emergency freezing orders to lock down whatever remains from both the original fraud and the recovery scam.

Seek Victim Remission

If your losses connect to assets the government has already seized, you may be entitled to file a remission petition and recover from those funds.

Work with Law Enforcement

We serve as your law enforcement liaison, with established contacts at FBI and Secret Service offices nationwide, opening freeze mechanisms a civil attorney alone cannot access.

Sue the Facilitators

When the scammers are beyond reach, the exchanges, platforms, and launderers that enabled them often aren't. We evaluate every case for third-party liability.

Common Questions

FAQs

Can I recover money lost to a fake crypto recovery service?
It depends, and we want to be upfront about this one. Pursuing the recovery scammer specifically is often difficult: these operators vanish once they have your money. However, the original fraud that led you there may still present recovery options through civil litigation, law enforcement coordination, or government restitution programs. In some cases, both losses can be addressed together.
What is a crypto recovery scam?
A recovery scam targets people who have already been defrauded. Fake "blockchain analysts," "recovery specialists," or fraudulent attorneys promise to retrieve your stolen cryptocurrency, often for an upfront fee or by asking you to send more crypto to unlock your funds. They are a second wave of fraud targeting victims at their most vulnerable.
How can I tell if a crypto recovery service is legitimate?
Legitimate law firms do not cold-call scam victims, require upfront cryptocurrency payments, or guarantee specific recovery percentages before reviewing your case. If someone found you through social media or a forum after your loss and offered to recover your funds for a fee paid in crypto, you are likely being targeted by a recovery scam.
Is CyberJustice Law Group a legitimate law firm?
Yes. CyberJustice Law Group is a licensed U.S. law firm, not a recovery agent or third-party service. Our attorneys are bar-admitted and verifiable. We have specialized in representing cryptocurrency fraud victims since 2022 and do not cold-call victims or require upfront cryptocurrency payments of any kind.
What should I do if I have already paid a fake recovery agent?
Stop all contact and payments immediately. Document everything: communications, transaction IDs, wallet addresses, and any names or contact information provided. Do not send any additional funds. When you are ready, a cryptocurrency fraud attorney can help you assess what happened and what legal options may exist for both your original loss and the recovery scam.
How much does it cost to hire CyberJustice Law Group?
Your initial video consultation with CyberJustice Law Group is free. We review your situation, assess what happened, and explain your legal options before you commit to anything. Fee arrangements vary by case, and we will be straightforward about costs and realistic about outcomes from the very first conversation.
