“I’m a 31-year-old entrepreneur based in Edmonton, Alberta. I run a small online retail business, and earlier this year I started exploring ways to reinvest some of my profits. Cryptocurrency seemed like an exciting option — high growth potential, decentralized, and something a lot of young professionals were getting into.
I was contacted by someone on LinkedIn who claimed to work with small business owners looking to grow passive income through crypto trading. They had a polished profile, spoke professionally, and even showed “verified” client results. After a couple of Zoom calls and a lot of back-and-forth, I decided to give it a shot.
I started with $2,000 CAD. Then another $3,000. I watched my “account” grow to over $20,000 on their platform. It looked real — detailed graphs, real-time updates, even 24/7 chat support.
But when I requested a withdrawal, everything changed. Suddenly, there were clearance fees, tax deposits, wallet confirmations — excuse after excuse. Eventually, they ghosted me. My money was gone.
I’m someone who builds systems for a living. I never thought I’d fall for something like this. But these scams are built to feel legitimate. I reported everything to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre and also warned others in my local entrepreneur network.
I later found RESORUS.com, who were professional from day one. They didn’t overpromise, but they did help me recover a portion of what I lost — and that gave me the strength to keep going.
If you’re a business owner in Canada thinking about crypto, please be careful. Stick to verified exchanges and never trust anyone offering private “investment opportunities” through social media. No matter how convincing they sound.”
“Throughout this entire ordeal that began with a promising investment opportunity but spiraled into a devastating experience resulting in a loss of $17,600, the realization that I was a victim of a scam left me with a whirlwind of emotions - embarrassment, anger, and uncertainty on how to proceed. In my quest for a solution, I stumbled upon RESORUS.COM, a company that initially sparked my interest. Despite my initial hesitation, their professionalism shone through as their team consistently approached me with dignity, outlined the recovery process explicitly, and refrained from making any unrealistic assurances. Communication was maintained diligently as they kept me informed every step of the way. To my amazement, their efforts led to the recovery of a substantial portion of the funds that I had deemed irretrievable.”
