Recovering funds after a crypto scam starts with the right steps.
4VictimsByVictims helps crypto scam victims pursue recovery of stolen funds through evidence organization, transaction tracing guidance, and structured legal and platform escalation pathways.
A not-for-profit initiative built by victims to help others navigate recovery responsibly, with transparency, safety, and ethical support at every step.
Recovery starts with clarity, evidence, and the right process
Crypto scams often leave identifiable trails. We help victims organize transaction data, wallets, timelines, and evidence so stolen funds can be traced and recovery efforts taken seriously by platforms, investigators, and legal channels.
We are a victim-led, mission-first initiative focused on helping victims pursue the recovery of stolen funds through practical technical and legal support responsibly and transparently.

Built to protect victims from further harm
After a scam, many victims are targeted again by fake “recovery agents”. These guardrails help you stay safe while you pursue legitimate recovery pathways.
Quick reminder
If anyone promises guaranteed recovery or asks for private keys, seed phrases, or urgent fees, treat it as a major red flag.
We never ask for seed phrases
No legitimate helper needs your seed phrase or private keys. If anyone asks, stop immediately.
No pressure for upfront fees
Be cautious of urgent “recovery fees”. We focus on evidence, tracing options, and safe escalation pathways.
Privacy-first intake
Share only what’s necessary. We encourage redaction and safe sharing practices during case intake.
Evidence-ready documentation
We help structure timelines, wallet lists, and transaction references for reporting and legal workflows.
