Blockchain investigation & advisory

Stolen crypto leaves a trail. We follow it — and document every step.

FueledCyberHacker traces digital assets across wallets, chains, and exchanges, then turns the trail into evidence you can act on: for recovery efforts, for counsel, and for law enforcement.

  • Evidence-led, never guesswork
  • Strictly confidential engagements
  • No fees to “unlock” or “activate” funds — ever

100%
Of findings independently verifiable

Every finding in every report cites a transaction hash or a public record you — or any second expert — can check.

$0
“Activation” or “release” fees — ever

No legitimate investigator charges to unlock recovered funds. Neither do we. Fees are scoped and agreed in writing, up front.

“Over $50M+ Traced / Over $40M+ Flagged” is based on internal investigative tracking as of Nov 2026, across five cases. Figures represent aggregate transaction value analyzed, NOT funds returned to clients. Client identities stay confidential, as they do on every matter. And the working standards stand: every engagement is scoped in writing before work begins, every finding is tied to a transaction hash you can verify independently, and every report states plainly what the evidence shows — and what it does not.

The platform

One platform for the full life of a case

Six capabilities on a single evidence chain — from the first hour after a loss to a package that stands up in front of an exchange, a court, or an insurer. Nothing is handed off, re-keyed, or lost between stages.

Bitcoin, Ethereum & EVM chains
Bridge & DEX swap correlation
Mixer entry / exit timing analysis
Exchange freeze-request liaison

Crypto fraud & theft investigation

For victims of scams, phishing, and wallet drains. We establish exactly what left your wallet, when, and where it went — the factual foundation every recovery path depends on.

  • Loss reconstruction from wallet history
  • Scam infrastructure mapping
  • Evidence preserved for police reports

Cross-chain asset tracing

Funds rarely stay on one chain. We follow value through bridges, swaps, peel chains, and mixers across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major networks, hop by documented hop.

  • Multi-hop transaction graph
  • Bridge & DEX swap correlation
  • Mixer entry/exit timing analysis

Recovery advisory & exchange liaison

When traced funds land at an exchange, speed matters. We prepare the freeze requests, evidence bundles, and filings that compliance teams and law enforcement actually act on.

  • Exchange freeze-request packages
  • Law-enforcement referral support
  • Realistic recovery outlook assessment

Due diligence & counterparty screening

Before you transact: screening of wallets, counterparties, and projects for exposure to scams, sanctioned addresses, and stolen-fund flows — so a bad deal never closes.

  • Wallet risk & exposure reports
  • Counterparty background checks
  • Pre-transaction red-flag review

Expert reporting for legal proceedings

Clear, methodical reports written for non-technical readers — judges, juries, insurers — with every claim anchored to a verifiable transaction and a stated methodology.

  • Court-ready evidence reports
  • Expert witness support
  • Insurance claim documentation

Incident response for compromised wallets

The first hours decide what can be saved. We guide you through securing remaining assets, cutting off attacker access, and preserving evidence before it disappears.

  • Emergency containment steps
  • Remaining-asset securing plan
  • Compromise timeline reconstruction

Approach

A disciplined method, applied the same way on every case

No shortcuts and no theatre. Four stages, each producing documentation the next stage — and any outside reviewer — can rely on.

STAGE 01

Intake & evidence preservation

We secure wallet records, transaction IDs, messages, and device evidence before anything is altered, and agree a written scope with you.

STAGE 02

On-chain tracing

Analysts reconstruct the movement of funds hop by hop across chains, bridges, and services, logging every transaction hash in the trail.

STAGE 03

Attribution & corroboration

On-chain findings are matched against off-chain records — exchange deposits, known scam infrastructure, open-source intelligence — to identify who can act.

STAGE 04

Reporting & recovery support

You receive a clear report of findings and next steps, plus hands-on support for freeze requests, filings, and referrals where the evidence justifies them.

Why FueledCyberHacker

Built differently from the “recovery” crowd

After a theft, the loudest voices offering help are often the second scam. These are the working differences that separate an investigation firm from an operator — stated plainly so you can test any firm, including us, against them.

Evidence-led, not narrative-led

Every conclusion in our reports traces back to a specific transaction, timestamp, or record. If the evidence runs out, we say so — we never fill gaps with confident-sounding guesses.

Confidential by default

Case details are shared only with you and the parties you authorize — an exchange, your counsel, or law enforcement. Nothing about your matter is used for marketing without written consent.

Chain-agnostic tooling

Attackers move across networks to break the trail; our workflow is built to follow — Bitcoin, Ethereum and EVM chains, and other major networks, including bridge and swap hops.

Written for the reader who decides

Reports are structured for the compliance officer, detective, or judge who will act on them: plain-language findings up front, full technical trail behind them.

How we work

Engagement principles you can hold us to

This industry attracts imitators who exploit people a second time. These principles are stated here, in writing, so you can check any of our conduct against them.

  • Written scope and fees before work starts

    You approve a defined scope and a stated fee up front. No open-ended billing, no surprise charges mid-case.

  • No recovery guarantees — honest odds instead

    Anyone who guarantees your funds back is selling you something. We give you a candid assessment of what the evidence supports, before you commit.

  • Your keys and credentials stay yours

    We will never ask for your seed phrase, private keys, passwords, or remote access to your devices. An investigation never requires them.

  • Findings you can verify yourself

    Reports cite transaction hashes and public records, so you — or any second expert — can independently confirm every step of the trail.

A warning worth repeating

No legitimate investigator, bank, or wallet company will ever ask you to pay an “activation fee,” a “release deposit,” or a percentage upfront to unlock recovered funds. That demand is the signature of a second scam aimed at people who have already lost money once. If someone makes it, stop and report it.

Watch-only wallets: seeing a balance is not owning it

Anyone can display any public address’s balance in a wallet app. Scammers use that display to make money that was never yours — or already gone — look one step away.

A watch-only wallet imports a public address and shows its balance, but holds no private key — so nothing in it can be spent from that device. Blockchains are public ledgers: visibility is normal and proves nothing about ownership.

  • If a wallet is marked “WO” or “watch-only,” the funds are on display, not in your control.
  • A name typed onto a wallet or login screen is something the person who set it up chose. It is not verification.
  • Only the holder of the private key or recovery phrase controls the funds. Whoever set up the wallet and holds those words is who owns what it can spend.

If someone shows you a large watch-only balance and then asks for a fee to “release” it, you are looking at the setup of a second scam — not at your money.

“Activation fees” and “release deposits”: the second-scam playbook

After a theft, victims are often contacted by fake recovery desks demanding a percentage to unlock funds that do not exist. Here is how to recognize the pattern instantly.

The script is consistent: a polished email announces that your funds were “recovered,” then names one final requirement — an activation fee, a verification deposit, a maintained minimum balance — often calculated as a neat percentage of the supposed recovery. Pay it, and a new requirement appears. There is never a final one.

  • Real blockchains have no activation stage. Moving crypto costs a small network fee, paid in the asset itself — never a percentage wired in advance.
  • No bank, exchange, or investigator makes you deposit money to access your own money.
  • Matching numbers are a trick: scammers copy the balance from the fake wallet display into the email so the two “confirm” each other.

If you receive such a demand: do not pay, do not reply, and preserve the message. It is evidence, and it belongs in a report to the FBI’s IC3 and the FTC.

The first 24 hours after a wallet drain

What you do immediately after discovering a theft decides how much evidence survives. A calm, ordered checklist for a bad day.

  • Stop the bleeding. From a clean device, move any remaining assets to a brand-new wallet whose recovery phrase has never been typed into the compromised one.
  • Revoke approvals. Token approvals are how drains repeat. Revoke outstanding approvals for the compromised address.
  • Preserve everything. Screenshot balances, save transaction IDs, export chat and email threads, and write down the timeline while it is fresh. Do not delete the “embarrassing” parts — they are evidence.
  • Report. File with your local police, the FBI’s IC3, and the FTC. Notify any exchange the funds touched, immediately — freeze windows close fast.
  • Share nothing sensitive. Never give a recovery phrase, password, or screen-sharing access to anyone offering help — including anyone claiming to be us.

Then bring the preserved evidence to an investigator. A complete first-day record can shorten a trace from weeks to days.
