Scam Warning: Impersonation of Wealth Recovery Solicitors Limited
Please be highly alert to fraudulent communications that misuse the name and official details of Wealth Recovery Solicitors Limited.
Fraudsters engaged in “cloning” scams may impersonate our firm and personnel in email and online frauds, specifically concerning the alleged recovery of cryptocurrency funds. They will misuse the genuine firm’s SRA number (8000728) and head office address (Floor 6, 3 Hardman Street, Manchester, M3 3HF) alongside fake names (e.g., ‘Emma Johanson’, ‘Nina Bloom’) and non-genuine email addresses (such as emma.johanson3300@gmail.com or support@getbackfunds.com). Their goal is to persuade the recipient to pay fees or provide confidential information.
This is also a known scam by the SRA, you can read more on their website.
