“I live in Vancouver, British Columbia, and I’ve been working in IT and cybersecurity for over a decade. I’ve always considered myself pretty sharp when it comes to spotting scams. I’ve helped friends and coworkers avoid phishing, fake websites, even phone fraud.
That’s what makes this so hard to admit: I fell for a crypto scam — and it cost me over $40,000.
It started with a post in a private Telegram group I joined for crypto trading. A user shared results from a new “AI-based crypto trading bot” and invited others to try it out. I did my research — or so I thought. The site was polished, the API connected with my wallet, and I even ran test transactions that seemed to work.
At first, I invested $1,000. After a week, the bot showed $1,300. Then $2,000. I started trusting the system. Over the next three months, I invested more, feeling confident I was early on something legit.
Then I tried to withdraw.
Suddenly, I needed to “verify my identity” with a fee. Then a “smart contract upgrade” required another payment. Every time I pushed back, they had a technical explanation — well-written and convincing. It wasn’t until the site disappeared overnight that I realized the whole thing had been a trap.
I was angry — mostly at myself.
Eventually, I found rerevertrecovery.com, and I approached them with skepticism. But they were real. They explained how professional-level scams are evolving, and how no one — not even IT pros — is immune. They helped me trace the wallet flow and recover a portion of what I lost.
Here’s my message to other Canadians who think they’re too smart to be fooled: these scams aren’t amateur anymore. They look real, feel real, and are built to bypass even trained eyes. If you’ve been hit — report it, talk about it, and don’t let shame keep you silent.
It can happen to anyone.”
“I am beyond grateful to Mr Erin and his team for their exceptional work in helping me recover $124,000 from a scam platform. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment were evident throughout the entire process. They made sure I was informed and supported every step of the way, and thanks to their efforts, I got my full amount back. I highly recommend Erin and his team to anyone in a similar situation—they truly deliver results.”
“I can’t express enough gratitude to Alpha Recovery Firm for stepping in when I felt completely defeated. After being scammed and having my account frozen with zero access to my funds, I thought it was all over. Not only did they help me recover every cent that was stolen, but they also worked tirelessly to resolve my withdrawal issues and unlock my frozen account—something I thought was impossible.
Their professionalism, constant communication, and clear strategy gave me peace of mind through a very stressful time. If you're in a similar situation and feel like there’s no hope, trust me—Alpha Recovery Firm is the real deal. Thank you again for helping me reclaim not just my funds, but also my peace of mind.”
“They didn’t just recover my money—they helped me regain confidence in myself.”
In late 2024, I was convinced to invest in what turned out to be a fake investment platform. A man claiming to be a certified financial advisor contacted me through a job networking site and convinced me to invest in what he called a “low-risk, automated trading system.” He showed me fake dashboards, falsified returns, and fake trading activity.
Over three months, I sent a total of $25,200 through bank transfers, Bitcoin, and even a gift card “activation fee.” When I asked for a withdrawal, they said I needed to deposit more to “unlock” my profits. That’s when I knew I had been scammed.
After filing a police report, reporting to the FTC, and feeling like I’d hit a wall, I found rerevertrecovery.com through a support group for scam victims.
About 7 weeks later, I received a notification from rerevertrecovery.com : $17,400 had been recovered. It came in two batches—one via bank reversal, and the other from crypto funds that had been temporarily frozen by the exchange.
They charged a 22% success fee, but only after the funds were secured and confirmed. It felt completely fair, given the quality of the work and the relief it gave me.”
