Tracking stolen crypto doesn’t mean you can get it back.
The Defiant draws a clear distinction: tracking means tracing where funds go on-chain, while recovery is another matter. It advises U.S. consumers to verify a service provider’s identity, written deliverables, fee structure, and what sensitive data they’ll have access to before paying.
· A service provider asking for access to your accounts and identity information is a risk in itself.
· Reviewing written deliverables before discussing payment is easier than trying to get your money back afterward.
Would you ask for a written document specifying the deliverables before paying?
