Survival Roadmap

⚠️ Critical Protocol Active

The 72-Hour Survival Roadmap

If you suspect you have been scammed by an unregulated broker, time is your most valuable asset. Follow this interactive checklist immediately to secure your remaining funds and document the fraud.

1

Immediate Containment

The scammers will attempt to extract "taxes," "withdrawal fees," or "liquidity charges" to drain your remaining capital. You must cut them off entirely.

  • Cease all payments: Do not send any more Bitcoin, USDT, or wire transfers, regardless of their threats.
  • Do not confront them yet: Act normal. If you accuse them of scamming, they will instantly delete your account and destroy your trade history.
  • Ignore urgent deadlines: Scammers use artificial countdowns (e.g., "Your account will be frozen in 24 hours") to force panic. Ignore them.
2

Lockdown Your Accounts

If the broker had you install remote desktop software (like AnyDesk or TeamViewer) or connect your DeFi wallet, your devices are compromised.

  • Revoke Wallet Approvals: If you connected MetaMask or Trust Wallet, use a tool like Revoke.cash to remove smart contract permissions immediately.
  • Uninstall Remote Software: Delete AnyDesk, TeamViewer, or Supreme instantly from your PC/Phone.
  • Change Exchange Passwords: Change the passwords and enable 2FA on your legitimate exchange accounts (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken).
3

Preserve Digital Evidence

Before the scammers delete your dashboard, you must capture the forensic data necessary for any future legal or blockchain tracing actions.

  • Transaction Hashes (TXIDs): Find and copy every single string of letters/numbers for the crypto transfers you sent them. This is the only way to track the money.
  • Screenshot the Dashboard: Take screenshots of your "balance," trade history, and the deposit addresses they provided you.
  • Export Chat Logs: Export or screenshot all WhatsApp, Telegram, or email conversations with the "Account Managers."
4

Official Authority Reporting

While local police often struggle with international crypto fraud, reporting creates an official paper trail required by banks and exchanges.

  • USA: File a report with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3.gov) and the SEC.
  • UK: Report the fraud directly to Action Fraud and the FCA.
  • Australia: Report the entity to Scamwatch (ACCC) and ASIC.
  • Your Bank: If you used a credit card or wire transfer, contact your bank’s fraud department immediately to attempt a chargeback.

Avoid The "Recovery" Trap

This is the most critical step. Within days of losing money, you will be targeted by people claiming they can "hack" the blockchain and recover your funds.

⚠️ SECONDARY FRAUD WARNING

DO NOT PAY UPFRONT FEES TO RECOVERY AGENTS. Anyone on Instagram, Telegram, or Quora claiming they are a "Recovery Hacker" or "Cyber Intelligence Agent" who can trace your funds for an upfront fee is a scammer. They often work for the exact same syndicate that originally stole your money. Blockchain transactions cannot be magically reversed by a hacker.
