Resources for Victims

If you have just realized you've been scammed, you are not alone. The emotional shock can be overwhelming, but your actions in the first 48 hours are critical. Follow this immediate action plan to maximize the chance of recovery.

1. Stop All Communication

Do not confront the scammer or reveal that you suspect fraud. They may attempt to cover their tracks, delete evidence, or disappear. Remain calm and avoid any further transfers.

2. Secure Your Accounts

Change passwords for your email, crypto exchange, and bank accounts. Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) everywhere. If you granted remote access to your computer (e.g., via AnyDesk or TeamViewer), immediately disconnect and scan for malware.

3. Document Everything

Take screenshots of all conversations, transaction IDs, wallet addresses, profiles, and any other relevant information. Save emails as PDFs. Do not delete anything. This evidence will be essential for investigators.

4. Report to Authorities

File a report with your local police and national cybercrime agency. In the United States, submit a complaint to the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). In Europe, contact Europol. Many agencies have dedicated cryptocurrency fraud departments.
