Going About Tracking Your Cryptocurrency
Some of the most exciting things about cryptocurrencies are also the things that make them more susceptible to scams and criminal activity. As you probably know, cryptocurrency is decentralized. It is not regulated by any government or central bank. That means no one has control over it which can be really exciting for people who like the idea of freedom from government oversight.
The best way to track down your money is by using the blockchain. The blockchain is a public ledger that records all transactions on a particular cryptocurrency network. By checking the blockchain for any suspicious activity, you might be able to figure out who stole your funds and where it’s sent to.
You can find out how much money was sent in each transaction, who sent it to whom, and how long ago it happened. You can also see how much money was received in each transaction, who received it from whom, and how long ago it happened.
All this information is stored on every computer connected to the network (called “nodes”), which makes it impossible for anyone to tamper with any of these records without being detected by all nodes on the network, which would mean shutting down every computer connected to it.
We’ve seen people track down criminals using simple methods and make sure that they don’t get away with it. Check out our latest blog post if you’d like to find out how it’s done today!
How Cryptocurrency Scam Works
Cryptocurrency scams are on the rise. The industry has seen a 154% increase in scam reports in the last year alone, according to researchers at Chargeback Pros.
There’s no sign that the trend will slow down, so if you’re looking to enter the world of cryptocurrency it’s important to know how avoid these attacks.
Cryptocurrency scams range from social media schemes where you’re asked to send cryptocurrency to someone in exchange for more, which is never delivered, to more sophisticated attacks on wallet software or exchanges.
It’s important that you and your loved ones stay informed about the different kinds of scams that can pop up. Here are some of the most common ones:
Giveaways
Scammers try to get you to send them small amounts of cryptocurrency by promising to return a much larger amount. Don’t fall for this!
Sharing your private key
The work you do with your cryptocurrency is done through a private key, which is essentially a password that gives you access to your account. A scammer can gain access to your private key from an unsuspecting post or email—so never share it with anyone!
Fake wallets
A fake wallet is a program or website that looks like an authentic one but is actually designed to steal your information. If you’re choosing a new wallet, make sure it’s from a reputable developer and has been reviewed by other users.
Spear-phishing emails
Fake ICOs
Cloud mining scams
Fake Exchange
Fake customer support
How To Not Fall For Cryptocurrency Scam
- Watch out for exchanges that don't have any regulations. Make sure they're registered with the SEC and that they follow the guidelines set by the IRS.
- Keep an eye out for scams that want you to "invest early" or give you bonuses for investing early, but which don't have any proof of concept or working product yet. The most reliable companies will already have something built and working before they start soliciting investments from the public—and if anyone pressures you into investing early, walk away.
- Don't engage with accounts that promise absurd returns on investment, such as those that say you'll earn over 1000% return per month. These are almost always scams, and even if they aren't, the returns are so implausible that there's not much point in engaging with them anyway.
- Remember, cryptocurrencies are only decentralized if you're using paper/hardware wallets or another offline wallet option. If you're trading on a regular exchange (i.e., Coinbase or Kraken), then your money is just as safe as it would be if you were doing a regular trade on the stock market.
- Set up a separate email address that you use for cryptocurrency exchanges. In the past, if your main email got hacked, the hacker could easily get access to your bitcoin wallet and drain it. If you use a separate email only for your cryptocurrency-related activities, then even if they hack into your main email, you'll still be protected.
- 2FA Everything; we do recommend the use of authentication apps like authy or google authenticator rather than using SMS or email for 2fa verification codes.
- Hackers and phishers are targeting individuals by creating fake cryptocurrency exchanges and trading platforms, luring users with promises of high returns. They may also reach out to you directly via email or social media. The best way to avoid getting caught up in this kind of scam is never giving out personal information or clicking any links that you can't verify as safe.
- A lot of people who trade in cryptocurrency get emails and messages saying they can be part of something called "pump and dump." Don't fall for this—it's basically a scam where someone tricks people into buying stock in a company that doesn't actually exist.

Report ScamHere are some more tips
- Never invest more than you can afford to lose.
- They should have a whitepaper or a roadmap that clearly explains their product or service, who's on their team, and what kind of security they use. If they don't have one, or it's unclear or poorly written, it's not worth investing in.
- Never accept an offer or payment directly into your bank account—scammers can easily cancel those transactions and leave you with nothing.
- Remember, cryptocurrencies are only decentralized if you're using paper/hardware wallets or another offline wallet option. If you're trading on a regular exchange (i.e., Coinbase or Kraken), then your money is just as safe as it would be if you were doing a regular trade on the stock market.
- Cryptocurrencies backed by fiat currency (like Tether) are no safer than the average currency itself—in fact, some of these currencies are even less stable because their value is determined by the issuer rather than traded on an external and independent market.

I am really frustrated with this crypto investment. I made the deposit in July 2022 and now in September 2022, I am yet to receive my money from them. I have sent several emails and appealed to reach their customer support but no response from them. They keep saying that they will send my money soon but I need it now! I cant withdraw my money. First Rate crypto is a scam. I have been waiting for over a month but they have not answered any of my requests.
FX Capital Club is a fake trading platform. They are nothing but thieves and frauds who do not pay their customers. I have been in contact with them on this issue for the past 90 days and they have completely ignored me. Do not invest with this company, you will get scammed!
