Blockchain & tracing
Can blockchain transactions be traced?
Many cryptocurrency transfers are visible on public ledgers. A transaction hash and public wallet address may help map movements, but do not necessarily reveal a person’s identity.
Can AI identify the person behind a wallet?
AI can assist with organising public evidence and recognising patterns. Identity attribution generally requires independent, verifiable records and may depend on exchanges or competent authorities.
Can transactions be reversed?
Most confirmed cryptocurrency transfers cannot simply be reversed by an unrelated tracing provider. Potential remedies depend on the specific platform, payment route and legal process.
Fraud response
What should I do after suspected investment fraud?
Stop further transfers, secure your accounts, preserve transaction records and communications, contact your bank or exchange through verified channels, and consider filing a report with competent authorities.
Should I pay a release fee to unlock recovered funds?
Be extremely cautious. Unexpected taxes, AML deposits, insurance margins or activation payments demanded to release alleged recovered money are common warning signs of follow-on scams.
Can any service guarantee a refund?
No legitimate provider can promise a particular outcome, and case facts should be carefully verified before any professional engagement.
Working with a provider
How should I verify a tracing or consulting company?
Check the actual legal entity, independently verifiable address, relevant professional authorisations, contract, fees, references and realistic scope. Never rely exclusively on documents shared by the provider itself.
Does this site collect case submissions?
Not at present. A dedicated intake process should only be activated when the website operator’s contact details, applicable privacy information and form handling have been completed.
Where can I report suspected fraud?
Consult your bank or exchange, the competent police or cybercrime body and relevant financial regulator. Useful starting points are Italian Police, CONSOB and FBI IC3.
