How to Spot and Recover from a Cryptocurrency Investment Scam

Cryptocurrency investment scams are becoming more sophisticated — and more damaging. If you or someone you know has been targeted, you’re not alone. Billions of dollars are lost annually to fake crypto platforms, Ponzi schemes, and imposter brokers.

At Lost Coin Rescue, we specialize in helping victims identify, document, and fight back.


🚩 Common Red Flags of Crypto Investment Scams

  1. Guaranteed Returns:
    If someone promises you fixed profits (like “15% weekly”) — it’s a scam.
  2. Fake Broker Platforms:
    Many scammers create realistic-looking trading dashboards showing fake gains to lure more deposits.
  3. Pressure to “Act Fast”:
    Scammers often use urgency: “Buy now before the market changes!”
  4. Withdrawal Restrictions:
    If you’re told you can’t withdraw unless you pay extra fees or taxes — that’s fraud.
  5. Impersonation:
    Scammers often pose as celebrities, financial advisors, or even recovery companies.
