How to identify a crypto scam

Common Scam Red Flags

  • Fees to release funds

    Fees to release your funds

    A classic red flag is any request to pay upfront «taxes,» «admin costs,» or a «release fee» before you can withdraw your own money. Legitimate platforms deduct fees from your balance; they don’t demand more funds.

  • High return promises

    Guaranteed high returns

    Scammers often lure victims with promises of guaranteed, high, or risk-free returns. In legitimate investing, high returns always come with high risk, and nothing is ever guaranteed.

  • Unusual trading requests

    Forced trading requests

    Be wary if a broker or platform pressures you into making specific trades or restricts you to investing only in certain obscure coins. This is often a tactic to manipulate prices or control your funds.

Warning signs of fake trading platforms

Fraudsters create sophisticated fake trading platforms to appear legitimate. They may encourage you to buy real crypto on a known exchange first, only to have you transfer it to their fraudulent site where it becomes trapped.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What Does A Cryptocurrency Broker Do?

    A cryptocurrency broker acts as an intermediary, aiming to provide a more secure environment for buying and selling digital assets. Using a reputable broker can help you navigate the market safely and reduce the risk of falling victim to common trading scams.

  • Cryptocurrency and Revolut

    Revolut allows crypto transactions but officially states that these services are not protected by schemes like the FSCS. This means they often refuse refunds for scam-related transfers to crypto wallets. If this has happened to you, our specialized recovery process, which goes beyond simple bank requests, may be able to help.

  • What Is A Cryptocurrency Scam?

    A cryptocurrency scam is a fraudulent scheme designed to steal your digital assets or personal information. Scammers use sophisticated tactics, often involving fake trading platforms, to trick investors. Unlike simple bank fraud, recovery requires specialised blockchain tracing, not just chargeback requests.

  • What Is The Purpose Of Cryptocurrency?

    Originally, cryptocurrency was designed as a decentralized digital payment system for fast, low-cost, peer-to-peer transactions without needing a bank. Its key features include 24/7 market access and a secure, decentralized structure (blockchain).

  • How to Avoid a Crypto Pump and Dump Scheme?

    Avoiding these schemes requires careful research and analysis. Key steps include:

    • Due Diligence: Thoroughly research the project’s background, team, and market capitalization before investing.
    • Technical Analysis: Look for suspicious price and volume spikes followed by sharp drops, which are hallmarks of a pump and dump.
    • Avoid FOMO: Do not invest based on social media hype or a «fear of missing out.» Make decisions based on your own research.
  • What Is Cryptocurrency?

    Cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency secured by cryptography. It operates on blockchain technology—a distributed public ledger that records all transactions. While there are thousands of types, the market is largely unregulated, which presents both opportunities and significant risks from scams.
