The situation

  • The victim funds a 'managed' CFD account with crypto across multiple deposits.
  • A dashboard shows profits; withdrawal attempts trigger fees and then a frozen account.

Our approach

  • We trace each deposit from the victim's wallet across chains to the receiving infrastructure.
  • We attribute the off-ramp exchange and overlay sanctions and AML risk on the receiving entities.

What the engagement produces

  • A court-admissible evidence package for the victim's counsel.
  • An FIU-aligned filing format for referral to the competent authority.

This is a composite of a common case type, not a specific client matter.
