What to look out for

Recovery scams are prevalent in web 3.0 especially! According to the NCA, these crimes are often committed by the same people who planned the initial crime, yet appear to be completely unrelated.

Here is a list of things to look out for;

  • Guaranteed success

  • Really high percentage success

  • Technical jargon

  • Large payment upfront

  • Not a registered business

  • Claims to be able to hack wallets

  • Urgency

The problem with these scams, are that the victim is already vulnerable at this stage after a rather large loss, mixed with an opportunity that sounds too good to be true, it’s actually really effective and people end up losing even more money.
