Scams we help trace

Most online scams cash out in crypto. Whatever it was called, we follow the funds on-chain.

Investment & forex scams

Fake brokers and platforms that take deposits, then block withdrawals.

Fake exchanges & wallet drainers

Bogus exchanges, "recovery" apps, and approval-phishing that empties wallets.

Romance & "pig-butchering"

Long-cons that move you onto a fake investment app and escalate deposits.

Job, marketplace & phishing

Task-job scams, fake marketplaces, and account-takeover fraud.

Every hour counts

Unlike a bank wire, on-chain funds don't sit still. Within hours they're split, mixed, and routed to exchanges. The earlier tracing starts, the more of the trail survives β€” and the better the chance of flagging funds before they're cashed out.

Hours 0–24

Funds split & moved

Stolen assets fragment across fresh wallets within minutes β€” the cleanest picture of the flow.

Days 1–7

Mixed & bridged

Layered through mixers and cross-chain bridges. Still very traceable, but attribution takes more work.

Week 1+

Often still traceable

Some funds cash out, but many sit dormant for weeks β€” and the on-chain trail rarely vanishes. There is usually still a path to follow.

Why tracing matters in Canada

Crypto is the payment method of choice in investment fraud β€” Canada's largest category of fraud loss. The Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre reports $704M lost to scams in 2025 β€” the worst year on record. Transfers are fast and hard to reverse β€” we can't promise recovery, but early tracing gives any effort its best chance.
