Dutch Civil Law: Asset Freezing via
Conservatoir Beslag
The Netherlands has a unique legal mechanism called "provisional attachment" which allows us to
freeze crypto assets even before a trial begins. This is a critical advantage in crypto
recovery, as it prevents scammers from moving the funds while the legal process is underway. Our
Dutch legal partners are experts in navigating the Amsterdam District Court for these emergency
orders.
The FIOD and Crypto Forensic Excellence
The Dutch Tax Intelligence and Investigation Service (FIOD) is world-renowned for its crypto
investigation capabilities. By working with our team, you ensure that your recovery case meets
the high standards required for FIOD cooperation, significantly boosting your chances of asset
repatriation.
The State of Crypto Fraud in Netherlands
The Netherlands has experienced significant crypto fraud through fake investment platforms and ICO
scams. The AFM regularly publishes warnings about unregistered crypto platforms targeting Dutch
consumers.
Official Oversight: DNB (De Nederlandsche Bank) and AFM (Authority for the
Financial Markets)
The Netherlands was an early adopter of crypto
regulation, requiring all crypto service providers to register with DNB since 2020. Dutch courts
have successfully ordered the seizure of crypto assets in fraud cases, and the FIOD (Fiscal
Intelligence and Investigation Service) maintains a dedicated crypto forensic unit.
Common Scam Scenarios in Netherlands
Our analysts have identified specific patterns of crypto fraud targeting residents in
Netherlands. The most devastating is the "Pig Butchering" (Sha Zhu Pan) scam.
Fraudsters build emotional trust over weeks via social media before introducing victims to a
fake, manipulated trading platform. Once victims deposit their life savings, the platform locks
the funds, demanding extortionate "tax" or "verification" fees to process withdrawals.
DeFi & Smart Contract
Draining
Another prevalent threat involves fake decentralized finance (DeFi) liquidity pools. Netherlands
investors are lured into connecting their non-custodial wallets (like MetaMask) to malicious
Web3 sites. The victim unknowingly signs a 'SetApprovalForAll' malicious smart contract, which
instantly drains their USDT and ETH balances into the scammer’s wallet. Our forensics team
specializes in decoding these specific smart contract exploits.
Local Legal Recourse & Law
Dutch civil law allows for provisional attachment (conservatoir beslag) of crypto assets. Courts in
Amsterdam have granted emergency orders to freeze exchange accounts, and the Dutch system supports
rapid cross-border enforcement through EU mutual assistance treaties.
