Bank payments
You paid a crypto scam from your bank
Call the bank, today, and ask what they can still recall. Write down the name of the person you spoke to and the reference they give you. That recall belongs to the bank. We do not run it, and we do not promise the bank will reverse the payment.
This firm is not a banking disputes practice. We do not sue banks as a line of work, and we do not offer chargeback as a product. The work starts when the money became cryptocurrency, or when the loss was in coins from the beginning. If there is no crypto trail, the right place is your bank and the reporting body in your country, not a crypto recovery review.
If the bank transfer bought coins
Say which exchange or which person received them, and send the transaction ID if you have it. Harvey Kaye reads that path the same way as any other crypto loss: is there an exchange or a person a court could reach, or is the trail already gone? You get that answer in writing.
In Australia, also tell Scamwatch. In the UK, tell Report Fraud, or Police Scotland if you are in Scotland. In Canada, tell the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre. Those reports help the record. They are not a substitute for the call to your bank.
The plain terms
Harvey Kaye is the solicitor at RVK Legal Services Limited, a firm authorised and regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority. SRA ID 8009455. His own SRA number is 609496. He was admitted on 15 March 2017. The work is done in English.
You pay nothing to start, and nothing if nothing comes back. If money reaches your bank, by a settlement or through a court, the fee is 12.5% of what you receive. In a typical matter that is the only charge from this firm. We sign a written agreement before we act for you. Sending a form does not start that agreement.
We never ask for a seed phrase, a private key, a password, or remote access to your phone or computer. If someone does, and uses our name, it is not us.
We cannot take clients who are citizens or permanent residents of the United States, Germany, Italy, or France.
Questions people ask
Can you force my bank to refund me?
No. Ask the bank directly. We will not tell you a refund is coming.
The bank said the money was changed into bitcoin. Can you look?
Yes. That crypto path is the review. Bring the transaction ID and the platform name. Do not bring a seed phrase.
I paid by card to a fake broker. Is that your work?
Only if the payment became cryptocurrency, or the loss itself was crypto. A card payment with no crypto in it is for your card issuer.
