Digital currency fraud takes many forms: counterfeit tokens that mimic legitimate coins, fake Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), NFT "rug pulls" where developers abandon a project after minting, and phishing airdrops that steal wallet private keys. Each of these leaves a forensic trail — and each is recoverable through legal action.

The technical complexity of blockchain technology is frequently weaponised against investors who don't know the details. Here are the primary categories our team investigates.
A project raises millions through a token presale with promises of revolutionary technology and return-generating tokenomics. After the sale closes, developers — holding all raised ETH or BTC — liquidate and disappear in what's known as an "exit scam."
NFT collections are launched with professional art, influencer hype, and a compelling "roadmap." After mint sellout, the anonymous founding team takes the ETH proceeds and deletes all community channels, leaving holders with worthless JPEGs.
Victims receive an unexpected "free token" airdrop or are invited to claim bonus tokens on a fake platform. Clicking "Approve" on the transaction grants the scammer unlimited access to drain your entire wallet — ETH, USDT, and all ERC-20 tokens.
Scammers create tokens with identical or very similar names to legitimate projects (e.g. "USDT2," "WrappedBTC," "EthereumPro") and list them on decentralised exchanges. Unsuspecting buyers purchase worthless counterfeit tokens at inflated prices.
Coordinated groups artificially inflate a token's price through fake volume and hype on Telegram channels, then dump their holdings at the peak — leaving retail buyers holding bags of worthless tokens at a fraction of their purchase price.
Malicious smart contract code contains hidden functions that allow the developer to pause all transfers, mint unlimited tokens, or drain the liquidity pool at any time — leaving investors unable to sell their holdings.
