I run a small but growing workshop that manufactures custom metal components. A few months ago I decided to invest in a new piece of industrial machinery that would significantly boost our production capacity. After some research I found what seemed to be a reputable supplier based overseas. Their website looked professional, their representatives responded quickly to inquiries and the pricing was competitive. The only catch was that they required payment upfront and in Bitcoin.At first I was hesitant. I had never made such a large purchase using cryptocurrency, especially not from a foreign vendor. But after reviewing their documentation and checking online for reviews, none of which raised red flags, I decided to move forward. The total amount came to $21,000 in Bitcoin. I transferred the funds, confirmed the transaction with the supplier and was told the machinery would ship within ten business days.Then silence.Days turned into weeks. My emails and messages went unanswered. Phone calls went straight to voicemail. That was when I realized I had likely been scammed. It was a sinking feeling $21,000 gone with no clear path to recovery. My bank could not help and since the payment was in Bitcoin there was no chargeback option. I thought the money was lost for good.After researching my options I came across a service called Salvage Asset Recovery. They specialize in crypto transaction tracing and digital asset recovery. Skeptical but desperate I contacted them and provided all the transaction details and communication logs with the supplier. To my surprise they responded promptly and professionally, outlining what they could do.They began tracking the Bitcoin through blockchain analysis, following it through a complex chain of wallets and mixing services. Eventually they traced the funds to an account on a known cryptocurrency exchange. They worked with the exchange, providing evidence that the funds were tied to fraudulent activity. After a lengthy verification and recovery process they managed to freeze the wallet and recover the full $21,000.It took just over a month but every cent was returned to me.I was stunned. I had accepted the loss as a painful lesson but thanks to Salvage Asset Recovery’s expertise I got a second chance. I cannot recommend them enough to anyone who has fallen victim to crypto fraud. They were transparent, relentless and most importantly effective.
