Is Crypto Recovery Actually Possible?
If you’ve been scammed, you’ve probably heard:
- “Crypto is anonymous — it’s gone forever”
- “No one can recover stolen Bitcoin”
- “You should just accept the loss”
Wrong. Recovery IS possible. We’ve done it hundreds of times.
Here are real cases showing exactly how Bit Remit Ltd recovers stolen cryptocurrency — and what you can learn from each one.
Case Study 1: The $340K Romance Scam
The Victim
Sarah, 54, widow from Manchester. Met “James” on Facebook Dating. Six months of daily calls, love letters, and promises of a future together.
The Scam
“James” convinced Sarah to invest in his “crypto trading platform.” Over 4 months, she deposited:
- Initial investment: £50,000
- “Tax clearance”: £40,000
- “Account upgrade”: £85,000
- “Emergency loan” to James: £45,000
- Final “processing fee”: £25,000
Total lost: £245,000 (~$340,000 USD)
The Recovery
- Blockchain analysis: Traced Bitcoin through 23 wallets
- Exchange identification: Found final destination at major exchange
- Legal coordination: Filed reports with UK and international authorities
- Exchange cooperation: Provided evidence, requested account freeze
The Result
Recovered: £168,000 (~$230,000 USD) — 68% of losses
Timeline: 8 months
“I thought my life was over. Bit Remit treated me with dignity and fought for me when I had no fight left. Getting most of my money back gave me a second chance.” — Sarah M.
Case Study 2: The Fake Trading Platform
The Victim
David, 38, software engineer from London. Saw Instagram ad for “TradeCrypto Pro” with “guaranteed 15% weekly returns.”
The Scam
Platform looked professional:
- Live trading dashboard showing profits
- “Account manager” available 24/7
- Fake withdrawal confirmations
- Other “users” posting success stories
David deposited £75,000 over 3 months. When he tried to withdraw £125,000 “profit,” they demanded £15,000 “verification fee.” He paid. They disappeared.
The Recovery
- Forensic tracing: Followed Ethereum through DeFi protocols
- Smart contract analysis: Identified automated laundering
- Exchange tracing: Found off-ramp to fiat currency
- Regulatory pressure: Worked with FCA and international regulators
The Result
Recovered: £52,000 — 69% of losses
Timeline: 5 months
“I felt so stupid falling for it. Bit Remit didn’t judge me — they just got to work. The forensic report they provided was incredible. These people know blockchain inside out.” — David T.
Case Study 3: The Business Email Compromise
The Victim
Tech startup in Manchester. CFO received email seemingly from CEO requesting urgent Bitcoin transfer for “acquisition.”
The Scam
- Email spoofed CEO’s address perfectly
- Urgent language: “Need this in 30 minutes”
- €180,000 in Bitcoin sent to “acquisition lawyer”
- Realized 2 hours later — CEO never sent email
The Recovery
- Emergency response: Analyzed transaction within 4 hours
- Rapid tracing: Bitcoin still at intermediate wallet
- Exchange notification: Alerted receiving exchange immediately
- Legal freeze: Obtained emergency court order
The Result
Recovered: €165,000 — 92% of losses
Timeline: 3 weeks
“Speed mattered. Bit Remit answered at 9 PM on a Sunday and started working immediately. Their fast action saved us from financial disaster.” — CFO, Manchester Tech Ltd
Case Study 4: The Pig Butchering Network
The Victim
Five victims from across the UK — all conned by the same organized crime network using fake identities.
The Scam
Sophisticated operation:
- Fake LinkedIn profiles with stolen photos
- Months-long “relationship” building
- Custom-built fake trading platform
- Professional call center for “support”
Total losses: £1.2 million across 5 victims
The Recovery
- Network analysis: Connected separate cases to same group
- Collaborative investigation: Combined evidence from all victims
- International coordination: Worked with police in 3 countries
- Exchange cooperation: Traced funds through 40+ wallets
The Result
Recovered: £780,000 — 65% of total losses
Timeline: 14 months
Bonus: Intelligence led to arrest of 3 scammers
“We were just numbers to them. Bit Remit treated us like humans. They coordinated everything and kept us informed for over a year. Justice matters as much as the money.” — Group representative
