Interpol can arrest people. A regulator can take down websites. Neither act automatically returns stolen Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, or USDC. Civil recovery still needs a forensic file and, where the facts support it, a court application that an exchange will read.
What arrest headlines describe
Arrest numbers and seized amounts describe a criminal operation. They do not open a private recovery file. A site takedown does not unwind a deposit already sent. If the transaction hash still points to an exchange, a civil assessment can ask whether a freeze is realistic.
What to do with the records
Keep the transaction hashes and the chat export. File a local report if you have not. Do not grant AnyDesk. Do not send a seed phrase or an unlock payment. Then ask for an assessment. Hours can matter when a balance is still sitting at an exchange.
Fees and safety
No professional fee is payable up front. Any percentage, and any court, forensic, or bank costs, are set out in a written mandate before that work starts. We never ask for a seed phrase, an upfront crypto payment, or remote-desktop access such as AnyDesk. Case email comes only from @swisslawmakers.com. Blockchain Legal Solutions, EthGuardians, and AI Data Intelligence are separate firms. See Blockchain Legal Solutions.
What to keep
- Keep screenshots, emails, and transaction hashes.
- Do not pay a second fee to unlock a withdrawal.
- Do not send a seed phrase or install remote-desktop software.
