Hello,
We're a marketing agency and recently we got scammed by someone with a very big amount over 100k USD / BTC and ETH paid.
I have read that there are groups or people who can recover payments in crypto for a certain fee.

Please recommend if you know someone.

Much appreciated.


What happened::
In order to make this case transparent and easy to follow, I will give and attach all important details.  

1. We're a PR agency and back in 2019, E H, applied on a job that we had on PPH - about media coverage on specific magazines. He delivered 2 media but when we escalated to more complex media he failed to deliver the work and he had a pending amount to refund of 5300USD.

2. On August 28, H E has intro me to "S M" - Internal Communications_ at _Forbes. I am using " " because we couldn't identify from what infos we have if Susan is real or not.  

3. We bought in total 2 normal contributor accounts and 7 senior contributor accounts on Forbes. Paying in crypto an amount of 39,600 USD. You can find attached a check as guarantee from Susan, which was a fake check.   https://accountsreceivable.com confirmed that the check is fake.  

4. Once we continued the project, they started to ask extra fees, for not adding in time content for different accounts.  
Total extra fees is 47,000 USD paid in crypto.

5. Clients also created content for their accounts for 2 months, valued at 8 - 10,000 USD each account. All senior accounts added around 60 articles each. A simple math makes it 63,000 just for senior accounts, at a cost of 150USD per article. All articles had to be 2000 Words.  

6. 2 Accounts were closed during this campaign, because the content was not added in time. Clients are still upset and came after our agency, while we were convinced weeks ago that everything was legit.

7. All left accounts received a suspension because the content of the 2 closed accounts was not added in time. It was a suspension of 45 working days. During this time, all 7 accounts continued to add content, on a daily basis.  

8. Last days, everything changed dramatically when one of our clients (with the account closed), contacted us again, with some accusations regarding how those contracts were sent, how each text and email was done. Again we thought it was just his imagination and that we're are falsely accused.  

8.1 When we contacted Susan on skype and said that this client is going to contact Interpol against us, by sending a print with the amount sent to us, she got "upset" and she asked us more money. Another 20,000 USD. Pretending that we sold this to over 250,000 USD and her fee is too low compared to ours. We could not play anymore her game and stopped all this circus.

9. Monday, H, has left the group.

We can still talk on skype with him but not in the group. One of our lawyers from USA, thinks that he is involved more than he said on the group, all being organized crime level. By leaving the group, says a lot - that all was very well planned by him and his associates. Total damage is above 150,000 USD.  


We want to make justice! This is not just organized crime and also violation of crypto law in India, but also gave a very bad taste and bad image for Indian people.  

You can find more pictures with him attached.

Note that all cryptocurrency transactions are irreversible. The scammer is the only one who is able to give back your fund.
Cryptocurrencies transactions are also anonymous. So no one knows the person who scammed you.

For more details, I recommend you to read the following topic.
Don't be a victim of second scam.

Would you mind telling us the whole issue here? by following the scam report format

And for the recovery of the funds from a scammer, there's no assurance that someone can do that even the people from the authority, not unless the scammers give it back which I highly doubt.

We have ID of one of the person involved, and tracked him (India).

Long story short.
He sold us PR services - he delivered first time and second time we escalated for Forbes accounts - he got the money and delayed as much as he could. It's a group created as we were talking with more persons (one susposed to be actually from Forbes).
Everyone got some texts, access to some WP accounts, with Forbes logo, but I've heard that it can be faked too, contracts with names from Forbes Staff - also faked, and in time, they made it so well, that no one was able to meet month quote and got either penalties or they were asking me more money not to delete the accounts.

As the people above said, no one can get you money back if you make a payment with cryptocurrences, unless the scammers want to do it. Most people who say they can get their money back for a fee are also scammers. As for other currencies, only a few of them are likely to reverse the transaction, so I think you have to accept it in vain. It's a pity when you trust the wrong people, be more careful from now,  especially for those who "can get your money back".

Don't believe at any recommendations you will receive. No individual, groups or certain body can recover what you have paid in crypto. That might result in another scam.

If you really want to undergo serious actions, providing that you think you have those things that might help with the case, seek help from authorities, specifically the cybercrime group in your country. Provide them all the information. At least, that's the best thing to do instead of seeking a recovery service here.

Although, let's face it. You have a slim chance to recover the money even with a serious approach. Good luck tracking that cockroach.

We never tried to work with a company who can recover money, yet. We just asked since I read online about groups who "can".

Crypto transactions are irreversible ! If anyone says you that he can do the same DONT TRUST.

The only way you can recover your funds is by tracking that individual, you already know he lives in India and can you can get more info about him from the social media accounts you linked. With this you could just take a legal action as cryptos are a bit forbidden in India. Don't make your taste bad for the whole country because of one individual.

Please advise.

I hadn't heard anything about this person. I just googled it and now the only thing I know about him is that he has claimed that he had hacked a credit card website in Israel. [Ref]
Seems that the claim hasn't been proved. Even if he is the one who has hacked that website, I don't think such a hacker reveals his real identity. So, I doubt the person you are contacting is the person he/she claims to be.

Even if that person is really a hacker, my advice to you is to avoid him. It's not the first time a person is offering such a service. So if you don't want to get scammed once again, avoid that person.
