Hello
10 days ago I transferred 3.17 ETH to a new ICO (CoinTrips).
The money never arrived except part of it (0.498 ETH) which is also strange.
The deposit address on my CoinTrips account also changed I am 100% sure of this and there is still activity on that deposit address when looking with etherscan although none of it it is me doin and my balance is also zero.
There is a lot of evidence.
Where can I find lawyers to help me with this?
There must be or at least there must be a demand for lawyers specialised in these things. They don't have to be "real" lawyers just people that can help and know these blockchain stuff and how to find out which account is which.
In the end I want to put pressure on CoinTrips so they send it back.
By the way: CoinTrips seems legit it's just that they don't answer me anymore.They are not a fake ICO.
This section is about bitcoin technical support, not altcoin for people that spent money on ICO's... and certainly not your legal advisors.
Anyway since it will get moved to the alt coin section I will answer anyway:
Your problem is that you say "They don't have to be "real" lawyers", but if you want to do something, you need real lawyers, otherwise, CoinTrips will not feel any pressure, they could scam you and get away with it.
If you want to create pressure, you should create something like a Reddit post or something that gets exposure to a lot of people. You have to assume that brands in general, and specially ICOs which are scams mostly, don't care about you, they care about damage being inflicted into the brand as a whole. The only way you can achieve that is
1) Class action lawsuit
2) Public shamming (having a ton of followers and exposing their scam, or exposing in a way that reaches a lot of people, like a really upvoted reddit post for instance)
Good luck.
