In the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency, scams can quickly drain victims’ accounts, leaving them with little recourse. Our company specializes in tracing stolen funds, providing a lifeline in the fight against crypto crime. Recently, we tackled a complex case involving a victim who lost a significant amount of Bitcoin.

The Case of a Deceived Investor

The victim in this case was tricked into sending 0.66081062 BTC (approximately $46,000) to a scammer posing as customer support. The stolen Bitcoin was then moved through a complex network of wallets and exchanges, including MEXC, Gate.io, KuCoin, ChangeNow, and Binance. Our team meticulously tracked these transactions, following the money trail across multiple platforms.

Tracing the Funds

We identified several key suspect wallets and exchange wallets used in the scam, mapping out the flow of funds to understand the perpetrators’ methods. This involved analyzing transaction dates, times, and amounts, and pinpointing the exchanges where the Bitcoin was ultimately deposited.

Aiding in Recovery

Our investigation culminated in a detailed report outlining the transaction path and identifying the wallets and exchanges involved. This information was then turned over to law enforcement, along with a request for subpoenas to obtain further details from the exchanges. We are hopeful that this evidence will assist in identifying the perpetrators and recovering the stolen Bitcoin.
