When most people think of private investigators, they picture someone in a trench coat with a camera.
But today’s scams — especially online and crypto fraud — demand a different kind of investigation.
At SafeHaven Recovery, our modern approach combines digital forensics, blockchain tracking, and old-fashioned intelligence work to support victims and their families. Here’s how we operate behind the scenes.
🔍 What Does a Scam Recovery Investigator Actually Do?
In short: we follow the money, uncover the fraud network, and help build a path to possible recovery.
Whether you’ve been scammed out of £500 or £50,000, we approach each case with the same care and attention.
Our team investigates:
- Cryptocurrency scams
- Romance fraud
- Fake investment platforms
- Impersonation scams
- Repeat targeting and recovery scams
🧠 Our Core Methods
1. Victim-Focused Interviews
We begin by understanding exactly what happened:
- Who contacted the victim, and how?
- What was said, shown, or promised?
- What information was given and what payments were made?
This isn’t just about facts — it’s also about restoring confidence and gathering emotional context, which often reveals hidden clues.
2. Digital Evidence Collection
We help victims and families collect:
- Emails, messages, and call logs
- Screenshots of websites or apps used
- Bank statements, crypto wallet addresses, and transactions
We know what to look for — and what will hold up in reports to banks, exchanges, or legal teams.
3. Blockchain Tracing & Platform Monitoring
We use specialist tools to:
- Track cryptocurrency across wallets and exchanges
- Flag known scam wallet addresses
- Monitor dark web marketplaces for linked data or reused scam infrastructure
This goes far beyond what the average person — or even local police — can do alone.
4. Collaboration with Financial Institutions & Authorities
We liaise with:
- Banks and card issuers
- Crypto exchanges
- UK agencies like Action Fraud
- International cybercrime units, where applicable
We know the right language and format for urgent reports — often speeding up otherwise slow processes.
