“Six Days. That’s All It Took to Get the Bank Claim Moving”

Client Testimonial
I checked the regulator’s register before I sent a penny — the firm was right there. It turned out to be a clone using a real company’s name. Six days later Seamus had my bank claim moving and the crypto trail mapped. I got back £61,000 I was sure I had lost.
— Margaret, Edinburgh, UKRecovered £61,000 of £73,000 · cloned regulated firm

Margaret did everything right and was still caught by a clone of a regulated broker. Because she came to me within a week, both the bank reimbursement route and the on-chain trace were wide open. A clone is one of the few scams where careful checks can still trap you — and one where speed afterwards genuinely pays.

No Recovery Guarantees

Outcomes depend on blockchain finality, jurisdiction, and third-party cooperation. Anyone promising instant, guaranteed recovery up-front, in crypto, without written terms — should be treated as a follow-up scam.
