Crypto Investigation Process

How Does Crypto Fraud Investigation Work?

There is a recovery process for a victim of a bitcoin scam or other types of crypto scams. Crypto fraud investigation works because bitcoin is traceable, even though there are no names and addresses associated with bitcoin wallets. It isn’t 100% anonymous, but “pseudo-anonymous” since wallets and bitcoin transactions have identifying codes.

However, specialized tools and advanced expertise are required to investigate those codes and trace them to actual people and locations before any bitcoin recovery can take place.
