If you lost Bitcoin to a fake broker, do not assume your case is over. Fake broker scams often use pressure, false account balances, and promises of guaranteed returns to trick victims into sending more money. The FTC says scammers commonly promise easy profits in crypto, while the FBI describes many of these “investment” opportunities as completely fake platforms controlled by criminals.
At RefundRequest.org, we help victims take the next step by reviewing wallet addresses, transaction hashes, payment records, broker communications, and platform details to assess whether there may be a realistic recovery path. Because Bitcoin transactions leave a digital trail, a structured case review can help identify where funds moved, what evidence should be preserved, and which reports should be made to exchanges or authorities.
If you were deceived by a fake broker, act quickly. Gather your Bitcoin wallet addresses, transaction IDs, screenshots of the broker dashboard, emails, chat logs, deposit receipts, and website links immediately. The FBI specifically says reports should include as many transaction details as possible, including addresses, dates, amounts, and transaction hashes.
Just as important, do not send more money to “unlock” your account, pay “taxes,” or hire anyone promising guaranteed recovery. The FTC and CFTC both warn that many recovery offers are simply a second scam targeting people who already lost money.
