Case Study: How First Funds Recovery Helped Sarah Gain Back Her Lost Funds

Sarah Adams, a digital marketing professional and Ethereum investor, has enjoyed some good returns from her crypto investments, and encouraged by her past success, Sarah was looking for an opportunity that can increase her investments. One day she received an email from a supposed investing firm promoting an Ethereum trading program with guaranteed profits up to 60% in just two weeks. The firm appeared legitimate and had an attractive website and glowing client reviews. 

After having a thorough conversation with a representative, Sarah decided to invest 10 ETH, up to $25,000. At first, she received day-by-day data on her investment balance growth.  Two weeks passed and Sarah was quite impressed by the growth and decided to withdraw her funds. The firm demanded an additional $3000 as a “verification fee.”  Growing suspicious, Sarah refused to pay. Soon the firm went silent, and its website disappeared. Sarah realized that she had fallen victim to a scam.

Desperate to recover her funds, Sarah turned to First Funds Recovery, a firm that specializes in assisting people who have lost funds to cryptocurrency scams. She submitted a detailed complaint about her case.

How  First Funds Recovery  Helps

First Funds Recovery examined Sarah’s case and used blockchain tracing tools to track her Ethereum transactions. They identified the wallet address linked to the scammers and traced the funds to an offshore exchange. By working with cryptocurrency exchanges, law enforcement, and other cybersecurity professionals, they were able to track the scammer’s location and activities.

The team swiftly acted to freeze the scammer’s account on the exchange, preventing the lost Ethereum from being sold. After weeks of legal proceedings, they successfully recovered 8 ETH (approximately $20,000). Sarah was overjoyed to recover a large portion of her investment.  First Funds Recovery provided her with expert advice on how to better secure her crypto assets in the future.

Protect Yourself from Crypto Scams
