Trace and
recover.
Lost funds to a crypto, trading, forex or romance-investment scam? We combine blockchain forensics, regulator filings and licensed legal partners to give your case a realistic path to recovery — with an honest assessment before any commitment.
How much did you deposit?
Honest numbers — including partial recoveries.
Full recovery is rare in this industry. We measure success by what actually lands back in client accounts — and report the full picture, not cherry-picked wins.
A documentation-led path to recovery.
No guaranteed outcomes. No upfront fees. Four focused steps built on blockchain forensics, regulator cooperation and licensed legal work.
Free case review
Share what happened. Within 24 hours we tell you whether recovery is realistic — and if it isn't, we say so. No sales pressure.
Evidence & blockchain tracing
We compile transaction records, communications and KYC evidence. For crypto losses we run blockchain forensics to map where funds went.
Filings & legal partners
We file with the relevant regulator (FCA, BaFin, ASIC, CNMV, Europol) and coordinate with licensed solicitors or counsel in the recovery jurisdiction.
Recovery & payout
Recovered funds are returned through your bank or regulated exchange. Our fee is taken only from what you actually get back.
Built for modern financial fraud.
Crypto-investment fraud alone accounted for $7.2B in reported US losses in 2025 (FBI IC3). We work the six categories below. Minimum qualifying loss is $10,000 — smaller cases are better served directly by your bank or local cybercrime unit.
Cryptocurrency fraud
Fake exchanges, wallet drainers and rug pulls. We trace USDT/ETH flows through mixers and bridges to identify off-ramp exchanges.
Trading platforms
Manipulated balances and blocked withdrawals. We file with the operating jurisdiction's regulator and pursue chargebacks where applicable.
Forex brokers
Unregulated offshore brokers, artificial margin calls. Recovery via regulator complaint, insolvency proceedings or chargeback.
Investment funds
Ponzi structures and shell-company operators. Documented through transaction forensics and creditor-process filings.
Pig-butchering / romance
Long-form grooming routed into fake investment platforms — the fastest-growing category worldwide. Hybrid bank + blockchain recovery path.
Task-commission scams
Fake employers requiring deposits for "tasks" or "commissions." Often linked to scam-compound operations in Southeast Asia.
The opposite of a recovery-room scam.
Regulators worldwide — FCA, CFTC, FBI IC3, NASAA — warn about fake recovery firms that charge upfront “retainers” and disappear. Asset Recovery Canada was built on the inverse of every red flag in those advisories: no upfront fees, no cold outreach, no guarantees. If a case isn't recoverable, we say so and point you to the right public agency.
Zero upfront fees
The single biggest red flag for recovery-room scams is any upfront payment. We only charge a percentage of what you actually recover.
Blockchain forensics
For crypto cases we trace transactions across chains, mixers and bridges using the same tooling used by law enforcement.
Licensed legal partners
Cases are run with SRA-registered solicitors in the UK and licensed counsel across the EU, Australia and Canada.
Honest decline rate
About 40% of cases we review are unrecoverable. We say so clearly and point you to IC3, FCA or your national cybercrime unit.
Real outcomes — partial and full.
Every review below shows the recovered amount alongside the original loss. We publish the ratio because full recovery is the exception, not the rule — and because anyone promising otherwise should be treated with suspicion.
Lost £74k to a platform called “Evermarkets Pro” after three months of ‘guided trading’. Asset Recovery Canada pulled together my wire records, filed with Action Fraud and ran a chargeback dispute with Lloyds. £38.5k returned over about seven months. They were clear from week one that full recovery wasn’t likely — I appreciated the honesty.
€48k sent as USDT to a platform called BitQuantum AI. The blockchain tracing report they produced was the turning point — funds were consolidated on Binance and flagged through Europol cooperation. Part of it came back 9 months later. Not everything, but more than the police told me was possible.

The broker was registered in St Vincent — basically unregulated. Asset Recovery Canada filed with ASIC and worked alongside the liquidator appointed when the operator collapsed. Took 14 months to work through the creditor process. Straight talk from day one about what was realistic.
I was groomed for four months before the ‘investment’ was introduced. Mix of SEPA and crypto payments. The SEPA portion was recalled by my bank within six weeks thanks to their filing work. The crypto portion was traced but landed in a non-cooperative exchange — they told me honestly that part was unrecoverable.

Platform was called ‘Greenwich Capital’ — looked professional, had fake FCA badges. Asset Recovery Canada coordinated a CNMV complaint and the Spanish cybercrime unit. Operator was eventually shut down and partial funds seized. Eleven months in total. They kept updates short and weekly, which I preferred.
Their Swiss legal partner prepared a civil claim against the operator’s local shell entity. First tranche of CHF 58k paid out; remainder still in litigation. What I valued most was that they declined to over-promise — when I asked for a timeline they gave me a range, not a date.

Answers before you ask.
Never. We work on a contingency basis — a percentage (typically 15–25%) of funds actually returned to your account, agreed in writing before we file anything. If nothing is recovered, you pay nothing. Any recovery service asking for an upfront retainer is a red flag regulators (FCA, CFTC, FBI IC3) warn about explicitly.
Cryptocurrency fraud (fake exchanges, wallet drainers, rug pulls), unregulated trading and forex platforms, Ponzi-style investment funds, pig-butchering / romance-investment schemes, and task-commission scams. Minimum qualifying loss is $10,000 — smaller cases are usually better served directly by your bank or national cybercrime unit.
No. Nobody legitimate can. Roughly 40% of cases we review are unrecoverable and we decline them — when that's the outcome, we tell you in plain language and point you to IC3, FCA, Action Fraud or your local equivalent. Of the cases we do take, our average return is 38% of the original loss, including partial recoveries.
For crypto losses we run blockchain forensics — the same category of tooling used by law enforcement (Chainalysis, TRM) — to trace funds across mixers, bridges and chain hops. Most stolen crypto consolidates at centralized exchanges, where legal requests and regulator cooperation can lead to freezing and return. We have no authority to seize crypto directly; recovery is always through regulated intermediaries.
Realistic ranges by case type: bank chargebacks 4–10 weeks; regulator-led cases 6–14 months; civil litigation or insolvency proceedings 12–24 months. After your free review we give you a specific range for your case, not a marketing number.
Transaction records (bank statements, wire confirmations, crypto tx hashes), all communications with the counterparty, any contracts or terms, KYC documents you submitted to them, and a timeline of events. If material is missing, we help you reconstruct it.
