Unfortunately, scammers take advantage of this. The anonymity and lack of protection make it easier for them to target people and steal their money. If you’ve been caught out by a crypto scam, you’re not alone — and we’re here to help. At CEL Solicitors, our fraud recovery team uses specialist tools and legal expertise to track stolen crypto and recover lost funds. We’ve already helped clients recover over £100 million lost to fraud and scams.
Crypto scammers often set up fake investment platforms that mimic legitimate sites, promising high returns with little risk. They may use professional design, glowing testimonials, and even mimic real platforms to appear credible.
These platforms lure users into depositing crypto funds, only to vanish or block access once they’ve collected enough money. Victims are often urged to “reinvest” for even greater gains, deepening their losses.
To protect yourself, watch out for unrealistic promises and always research the platform thoroughly before investing.
Start your claimCrypto scammers often send fake emails or texts that appear to be from trusted exchanges, urging you to click on a link or provide sensitive information. These messages can look convincing, sometimes even mimicking official logos or addresses. Once you click the link, you might be directed to a fake website designed to steal your login details or personal data.
Always double-check the sender’s address, avoid clicking on suspicious links, and use official apps or websites to log in.
Start your claimScammers often impersonate crypto influencers or official/celebrity accounts on social media platforms, offering fake investment opportunities or promising quick returns. They may reach out directly, asking for money or encouraging you to send crypto in exchange for larger profits.
Always verify the identity of anyone asking for funds online, especially on social media, and report suspicious accounts.
Start your claimPonzi and pyramid schemes promise high returns by recruiting new investors rather than generating real profits. Early investors may receive payouts, which are funded by the contributions of new participants. Eventually, the scheme collapses, and most investors lose their money.
Be cautious of any investment that relies on constantly bringing in new participants or promises unusually high returns with little risk.
Start your claimHackers may gain access to your crypto wallet through phishing attacks, weak security, or malware. Once they’ve stolen your private keys, they can drain your funds. In some cases, they may also lock you out of your wallet entirely.
To protect yourself, use strong, unique passwords, enable two-factor authentication, and consider using hardware wallets for added security.

Our crypto investigation report is a separate, paid service that supports law enforcement and can be used alongside our regular no-win, no-fee scam recovery claim.

If someone claims you’ll earn high profits with no risk, it’s likely a scam. Every investment carries some risk and there are no guaranteed returns.
Companies not registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) don’t offer the same protections—but CEL Solicitors may still help.
Unsolicited messages via social media, email, or messaging apps are often a red flag. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Pyramid schemes rely on new recruits to pay early adopters before the scammers collapse the scheme and disappear with the funds.
Scammers create urgency, leaving you with no time to think. This tactic is designed to prevent you from asking questions or checking the facts.
Notify the police, Action Fraud, and financial regulators know what happened.
If the scam involved platforms like Coinbase, Binance, or Kraken, report it immediately. They may have systems to help.
There are tools available to help you track crypto transactions which may help you trace your funds
Be cautious of call-callers you offering to recover your funds for an upfront fee — many of these are scams themselves.
Change your passwords, enable two-factor authentication (2FA), and review your security to prevent further access.
