Every week at Moorbridge Cyber Security, we speak with people who have lost money to cryptocurrency scams. Some are embarrassed, some are angry, and many simply don’t know where to turn next.
The truth is these scams are becoming more convincing, more personal, and more aggressive than ever before.
So today, we want to share the most common red flags we see and explain how our new No Win No Fee service is designed to help victims safely explore recovery options.
The Red Flags Everyone Should Know
These are the signs almost every victim encounters before they realize they’ve been scammed.
1. If someone says they’re from a government agency, they’re not.
CRA, the police, FBI, FCAC, HMRC, the FCA, and other official bodies do not call people about cryptocurrency.
They won’t ask about your wallet, your transactions, or any “investigation.”
If someone does, it’s a scammer trying to scare you into acting quickly.
Even if someone contacts you from Moorbridge Cyber and their email is not from the domain moorbridgecyber.com or moorbridgecyber.uk, cut the communication and please contact us immediately. These are our official domains, and our company operates only under these domains.
2. Fake exchange or blockchain support teams
Scammers often pretend to be from Crypto.com, NDAX, Coinbase, Blockchain.com, or another big platform.
They may say your wallet is locked or your account needs “urgent verification.”
Real companies never call you out of the blue for this, and they never ask for your passwords or recovery phrases.
3. Anyone asking for upfront payment is not on your side
Scammers often demand fees for “unlocking,” “tax,” “recovery,” or “processing.”
These fees are always fake.
Once they get money from you, they will try to get even more.
4. If they ask you to screen-share, stop immediately
This is one of the most dangerous red flags.
If someone wants you to install AnyDesk, TeamViewer, QuickSupport, or share your phone screen, they are trying to access your wallet or banking apps.
No legitimate service needs to see your screen.
Why Moorbridge Now Works on a No Win No Fee Basis
We’ve seen too many victims lose money twice first to the scammer, then to shady “recovery services.”
These companies ask for big upfront payments and do nothing.
We want to break that cycle.
With our No Win No Fee model, clients don’t pay unless we actually recover something or achieve a meaningful result.
No false promises. No pressure. No risk of being taken advantage of again.
But honesty matters; not every case can be solved
We want people to hear this clearly:
Not every case is recoverable. Not every case is worth investigating.
Sometimes:
- the funds are too old
- the scam was designed to leave no trace
- the loss is too small to justify an expensive investigation
- the money has already moved beyond legal reach
When this happens, we tell clients the truth right away.
We’d rather be honest than give someone false hope.
And when a case is viable
We put real cyber-specialists on it, people who work with blockchain tracing, digital forensics, threat intelligence, and cross-border investigations every single day.
When we take a case, it’s because we believe there is a realistic chance of recovery.
