Cryptocurrency Scams FAQs
-
Can a crypto scammer be traced?
Yes, a crypto scam can be traced most of the time. However, there are things that can make it more difficult, such as:
- Not tracing the funds early enough
- The funds were moved into a rogue exchange
- You cashed out quickly in an account linked to an offshore location
- The scammer has used a mixer to make it more difficult to trace – a tactic used in highly sophisticated scams
No matter the reason, our specialist solicitors can trace your crypto funds to build a credible case for recovery. Get in touch today to see how we can recover your money.

How can you avoid a crypto pump and dump scheme?
Pump and dump schemes are one of the most common forms of crypto fraud. These scams artificially inflate the price of a coin to attract investors, before the scammers sell off their holdings, leaving victims with worthless assets.
Here’s how to protect yourself:
- Do your research: Before investing in any crypto coin, investigate the company’s background, roadmap, market capitalisation, and trade volume. Look for reliable news coverage or credible information about the coin or platform.
- Check for unusual price movements: Sudden spikes in price and volume, followed by sharp drops, are a major red flag.
- Don’t invest based on hype: If you’re only investing because others are, pause and re-evaluate. Fear of missing out (FOMO) is a common trap. Always base your decisions on research, not rumours.
- Stay informed: Monitoring market trends and news regularly will help you spot scam patterns early and avoid making impulsive decisions.
