First of all, I want to say - I fully admit that I am a loser and it was my fault. Trusted scam.
As result, 10 ETH were sent to scam address.

1. I have a suspicions that after, all ETH by piecemeal were transferred to different addresses through some ether-mixer. Is there any chance, to trace their path?

2. One of the addresses, has a transaction marked as "Bittrex". So, there is a suspicion that scammer had some transactions on this exchange. In other addresses, part of the transactions marked as Shapeshift.


Question: Is it possible to send some request to some department of international cyberpolicy (interpol)? In case if they will have my official request, they could ask Bittrex to check that address. There is a possibility that scammer who stole my ETH,  passed verification on Bittrex and they have a copy of his documents.


I understand that this sounds hopeless, but before completely forget about my 10 ETH, I would like to get answers to these stupid questions ...

Thank you!

*Sorry for my poor english.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but as far as I know there is no enforcement agency that is interested in assisting in this sort of situation. You can hire people that would be independent investigators, involved in computer forensics or security that might be able to assist you. Where there is a will there is a way, so they say; you can in theory track down these coins, but even if you are able to what do you plan to do then?

The glories of these coins if also their downfall when you are in need of 3rd party assistance. I would not expect help from any sanctioned agencies, but there is some hope in hiring people independently.

You can find it but  you can never bring it back to your account.  And its so hard to trace the real identity of the hacker even if you ask for the assistance of any agency
