If you believe you may have been a victim of a cryptocurrency scam and need to gather evidence to support a police complaint, Orion Investigations may be able to help.
A cryptocurrency blockchain is a decentralized public digital ledger that exists across a network which contains details of cryptocurrency transactions.
While the blockchain does not contain details of who owns the crypto addresses, in order for a scammer to convert the cryptocurrency into fiat money they will eventually have to transfer the cryptocurrency to a crypto exchange. Due to KYC regulations if you can identify the transaction where the cryptocurrency has been sent to an exchange it is then possible for the police to request through legal channels details of the exchange customer.
