That's gonna be difficult to achieve with just a bitcoin address and virtual number...but where did you meet this person? Does he have his own site? Did you use a P2P platform to deal with him?

Sorry for your lost money.
Even though there have been instances where people have been able to recover their scammed money, those are exceptional cases and not the norm and the quatity of the stolen money must high enough to justify the attempt to track down the scammers (which can take months/years and additional investment).

That been said, you will need more information about this person as OmegaStarScream, also be aware that since you are a newbie, you cannot use the command [img] in order to share pictures directly on your post, please provide the link without the command, so we can see what information you have.

In case you have issues with imgur, feel free to use this webpage instead, to upload and share your pictures.

Also, searching the BTC address your provided on blockpath, it seems your satoshis have been mixed already, but thats my guess.

if only crypto can return the money that has been sent or return the lost money, that means bitcoin is already in control, while bitcoin is not controlled by anyone, therefore we have all reminded beginners in this forum not to send money to people they just met or check the wallet address again before sending because if there is an error in your wallet address, then the money you have sent will never come back again, sorry for losing your money hope it becomes an important lesson in your life

How were you actually scammed by this address, where you asked to send your btc to the address in form of investment, or did you send your btc mistakenly to address under address misplacement? .
Because I have come across this address flagged on many news later.
It was recently flagged here for abuse
I believe that wallet if owned by all this clipboard virus hackers because their is an active bot that move out transactions immediately from the wallet.

[franky1]

looking at blockexplorer details

that address only received ~0.23btc via 3 smaller payments
in the form of 3 amounts coming from 3 exchange hotwallets
in the amounts of
0.10394017
0.02361490
0.10020000

no where near 18btc

the owner of the wallet of this receiving address has several other addresses
bc1qqffkd9c4f6u4cj3jkr954xlsqtdcaf4efvw26z  (0.10542374 BTC  total)
bc1qvpzzru507y3s0tef90ydmjwlkrd58fwyc482jh (0.07054069 BTC total)
bc1qu09mpr6utr5cahuk3w8lnypedvf2m568l6antl (0.22775507 BTC total)

again no where near 18btc involved

but all the funds received by the address mentioned in the OP (0.22775507) went out via 2 payments on different days
to
bc1qnrkf66c59ukpd8j5jp4zjapn8hp2ex4dzzm9rt

so it does not look like the OP had 18btc nor the receiver had 18btc
funds after this appear to now be in a mixer

it appears that someone is falsely claiming they lost 18btc.
showing a address thats linked to flags of abuse
but where the flags are then reviews of other scammers

the scammers pretending to offer recovery services
by posting as pretend victims that got scammed by said bitcoin address also and these services they advertise supposedly recovered the value (by asking for more money to pay upfront to do the service)

.. nice try OP.. but you failed

If you look at the details of the reports in relation to the address mentioned in the OP (here for example), you’ll see that spammers have reached those reporting sites. Out of the 3 reports on the link I provided, two are obvious fake reports, create to shill what are very likely scam sites trying to get even more out of the poor sods souls that fell for the original scam. The third report may be legit and is often an encountered case, albeit it basely goes into details.
These type of sites could be useful for some in some instances, although if one is conscious enough to look into them, he’ll likely be able to spot a scam from a mile away to begin with.

This is the cons side of Bitcoin, Just as Bitcoin's decentralized system protects us from the banking system, on the others hand decentralized system helps scammers stay behind the scenes. It is really sad what happened to you, but I think you should be careful about Bitcoin transactions in advance, if it's not trustworthy or not reliable, then it is better not to do the transaction. I don't think the scammed money from you can got back or they can be identified because the only clue left by them is some virtual number.

...but where did you meet this person? Does he have his own site? Did you use a P2P platform to deal with him?

That was the first question came to my mind. In what mean (way) did he meet, and what business did they agree before he sent that huge amount of money. Is like the OP wanted to quick rich over night. The OP would have stated how or what transpired the transaction. What really made you to transfer the money? OP your story is not clear.

And from what franky1 said and the break down or the analysis, even the OP does not have 18btc and also the so called scammer does not have such (18) BTC in their wallets so did the OP made a mistake of the figure? By the way franky1 has given you the full details so you can use that. And I don't think that fund can be reversed unless the person on his own willingly send it back to the OP.

With a total 0.23BTC received by the address, which translates into $4,440 as at today Bitcoin price and ops already mentioned he was scammed of $3,000 and a total of 18BTC in total scam. Even though there is irregularities in the figures supplied by ops, We can't tell if the scam was as a result of exchange hack or through other p2p transaction or investment site/platform that involves Bitcoin transactions.

Any financial loss is unpleasant, with which I can only sympathize. As you were told above, the chances are almost zero to be able to find a person with only btc-address and a number that most likely doesn't belong to him, which means that he is not connected in any way with the person you are looking for. This is a very difficult problem, which could be solved by additional information. That is, more details of the story when you were deceived. Some minor details, at first glance, might help your search.

[sheenshane]

If you're willing to spend another amount of money, you can reach out this company, Chainalysis.com.  I don't know how much it cost and also the percentage that you'll recover your lost fund.  One thing that I know is their experts tracing a blockchain transaction that could be the scammer's identity will unmask.

Sorry for your loss, hope that you've learned from this mistake and that won't happen again.
Think it twice before sending your crypto into another wallet, remember always that once the transaction has been confirmed, it's irreversible.

Unfortunately, a bitcoin addresses doesn't have a corresponding name, so it will be hard to find out who is the people behind this address.

@sheenshane - I'm not saying that it can be done, but it might cost the OP more than what he lost here. So it will be a futile attempt to contact Chainalysis or any other blockchain company.

I'm sorry to burst the bubble to the OP, but it seems that he already lost his money to this scammers.

From this transaction it seems your stolen bitcoin was sent to Binance.

You can try filing a police report. It might seem like a long shot but you might be able to recover your funds if you can prove it was theft.
