Description

Do NOT use this company for cryptocurrency recovery. They are professional scammers targeting victims of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other crypto thefts. I tested their service after being scammed. The phone number +1 (210) 251-0094 never worked. I was contacted by someone calling himself Lucas Davidson – “Ethical Hacker” claiming to recover stolen crypto. He instructed me to create a ZaffyVault wallet (just a website link, not a real app) and deposit ETH for “network activation.” After I sent funds from another wallet, he demanded $1,000+ for a “blockchain network initiation fee” before I could supposedly retrieve my stolen Bitcoin and Ethereum. I had asked multiple times if my new wallet would need more funding — he ignored my question. When I refused to send more money, he became aggressive and used abusive language. That confirmed it was an advance-fee crypto scam, not a real recovery service. Bottom line: They are fake, abusive, and predatory. Avoid them completely — they will only steal more of your money.
