If you cannot recover funds, you should refund the payment. Where else in America is failure paid in full and not subject to honest results? Online scammers are everywhere. Starting here.

Useless

The email I sent to this useless company summarizes my experience:
####
Hi Matthew and Support,

I'm still waiting to hear back from you about the FBI's findings that your report is useless and inaccurate.

I have been tricked again by you. I don't see any difference between you and the scammer.
What you did is even worse because you scammed a person who has lost everything in a huge scam.
In short, I lost $5,400 to you in addition to the $614,000 lost to the scammer.

You had also mentioned data scraping on the wire transfers in our first call which you have completely ignored.

You are very keen on asking for 5 star review but do you think you deserve one?

Completely disappointed!

I saw reply from data forensics and want to comment on their reply:
"After delivering your report, we offered to communicate directly with the law enforcement agents involved to help them understand the findings and methodology. Unfortunately, we received no cooperation from your side"

I dont work in FBI (like most of your clients). Inspite of that I did contact FBI requesting them to talk with you and their response was(which I shared with you too):
"I would be wary of speaking to anyone online that you don’t personally know or haven’t met in-person previously. We’ve had victims that were contacted by companies like Data Forensics or individual freelancers online who claim to be able to recover funds, only to learn that these people also victimized them and took more of their money. "

I DONT PERSONALLY HAVE ANY ISSUE WITH YOU. IM JUST SHARING MY EXPERIENCE AND LETTING SIMILAR VICTIMS TO BE AWARE OF WHAT I LEARNT THE HARD WAY. I DID SEE A PREVIOUS COMMENT FROM YOU STATING THE SAME FOR ANOTHER REVIEW THAT THE CLIENT DID NOT COOPERATE. NOW I KNOW WHAT YOU MEANT.

We’re truly sorry to hear you feel this way. While we completely understand the frustration of being scammed and how emotional this process can be, we want to clarify a few important points about your case and our service:

Our forensic reports have been used successfully in previous cases to support legal action and, in some instances, help clients recover funds.

All investigations are conducted by certified professionals—our investigators are Chainalysis-certified, and we use legitimate blockchain forensics tools.

After delivering your report, we offered to communicate directly with the law enforcement agents involved to help them understand the findings and methodology. Unfortunately, we received no cooperation from your side.

We take all feedback seriously and genuinely care about our clients. Even now, we are still open to helping you further. If you're willing, we invite you to contact us directly so we can explore any additional support we can provide.

We empathize deeply with your loss and are committed to doing what we can to support victims of fraud in an honest and transparent way.

We understand this is a difficult situation. Just to clarify, we never promise fund recovery—our service is to trace stolen funds and provide forensic reports that can be used as evidence for legal action.

We were transparent about this from the start, and we’ve tried reaching out to you but haven’t received a response. We’re still here to assist if you need any further support.

If you’d like to discuss next steps, feel free to reach out anytime.

Beware of Cryptocurrency SCAMS

I was contacted via a WhatsApp trading group that was under the guidance of Professor Garrick Hileman that looks good. It turned out to be a scam hence I contacted data forensics for assistance. I unfortunately invested funds into this only to find out that Professor Garrick Hileman was impersonated and that the funds lead to a centralized exchange OKX! Now I am filing an IC3 report with the FBI for enforcement actions!

The most terrible scam I have ever seen…

The most terrible scam I have ever seen run by Nigerian scammers and targeting Americans. They will ask you to pay a fee to provide you with bogus transactional analysis and what happened to your money which will play no role in recovery. Report any scams to police and FBI. They are run by Nigerians. They claimed they are in Isreal but will be calling you with number from Virginia. All the positive reviews are nothing but a SHAM. Report the website to FBI before they rip off millions from Americans. Assuming 1 million Americans pay them 50 dollars each for their bogus information in which there is no guarantee of justice they will pocket 50 million dollars.

A grand scam run by Nigerian scammers.

A grand scam run by Nigerian scammers.Beware. Even in the advert they said you cannot get justice. One of them called me. His accent shows he's a Nigerian FBI will soon be notified about them. They called me with a number from Virginia but claimed they're in Isreal. Let everyone avoid them. .This is a sophisticated SCAM run by SCAMMERS FROM NIGERIA

I am a $158k Ethereum crypto mining victim. When I realized the mining project was a scam all
my funds on Trust wallet were stolen. After researching for a fund recovery service solutions, I quickly realized it was littered with scammers.

Then I stumbled upon Data Forensics. I quickly realized they are legitimate, they entertained a conversation and offered cutting edge guidance face to face and in real-time. My case is in its infancy but I already feel the relief and restoration. I strongly recommend that any person crypto scammed quickly and immediately contact Data Forensics.

The team at Data Forensics were extremely helpful at tracking down those responsible for the scam. They were knowledgeable, precise, and quick at tracking the data to the source. What sets Data Forensics aside from other data recovery teams was the way they made me feel hopeful about the restitution and the punishment for the perpetrators. I urge others to contact Data Forensics when suspected of a scam to help bring justice to their communities.

Scammers got me but I found help

Scammers got me but I found help!
My case is ongoing, so I will update when all is said and done, but it gave me great piece of mind to hire Data Forensics to help me recover my losses!
I was "hired" for what I thought was a legitimate online job. Legitimate company with website and all, but they don't have the typical options for employment or even communication. They provide the initial funding to show you how it works, and even pay you about $100 for training. Then you use that money and put it back in to use on your own. You take out what you earn, and use that, or a portion of, to finance your next job, and repeat. Seemed like a nice way to make a few extra bucks and it sucks you in. At some point though, gets you stuck, and if you don't find a ton of money to cover it and keep going, you just lose it all.
If you or someone you know has been a part of this kind of scam, talk about it with Data Forensics and see how they can help you, too!
