We've been alerted to a rising number of fraudulent claims where individuals are posing as representatives of @Cryptosec or Crypto Investigators (@CryptoExaminers). We urge you to exercise caution and conduct thorough due diligence.
Please note: We never proactively contact individual scam victims, especially not via social media. Our services are tailored for organizations and law firms; we don't engage directly with individual victims.
If you've fallen prey to a crypto scam and someone claiming to be from our team contacts you, it's likely that you're being targeted by crypto recovery scammers.
