How the scam operates.
Domain ini mereproduksi nama merek MyEtherWallet secara utuh, memadukannya dengan domain tingkat atas .attorney untuk menyimulasikan praktik hukum atau penasihat yang seolah memiliki koneksi resmi dengan layanan tersebut. MyEtherWallet tidak memiliki hubungan terdokumentasi apa pun dengan operator ini. Konstruksi ini menyasar pengguna yang mencari bantuan setelah pencurian, peretasan wallet, atau insiden penipuan sebelumnya, dengan menampilkan diri sebagai firma hukum spesialis yang memiliki akses istimewa ke platform serta solusi hukum yang tersedia.
Operasi semacam ini menyasar individu yang telah mengalami kerugian finansial, kelompok yang lebih rentan terhadap penipuan sekunder akibat tekanan emosional dan keinginan untuk memulihkan dana. Operator menampilkan diri sebagai perantara berlisensi yang mampu melacak aset atau memaksa exchange untuk melepaskan dana yang ditahan. Korban diminta membayar biaya di muka yang disebut sebagai uang muka jasa, deposit kepatuhan, atau biaya pendaftaran perkara. Pembayaran inilah yang menjadi mekanisme pendapatan sesungguhnya. Tidak ada keterlibatan hukum teregulasi yang benar-benar terjadi.
Titik kegagalan muncul ketika korban meminta bukti kemajuan setelah pembayaran awal. Operator dalam kategori ini merespons dengan dokumentasi yang dipalsukan, tuntutan biaya tambahan dengan dalih kerumitan prosedural, atau keheningan berkepanjangan sebelum domain berhenti merespons. Domain ini terdaftar dalam daftar hitam CryptoScamDB, sebuah basis data yang dikelola melalui pelaporan sesama pengguna yang mencerminkan bukti dari pihak yang dirugikan atau peneliti. Pembayaran mata uang kripto yang dilakukan kepada operasi semacam ini tidak dapat dibatalkan, sehingga menghilangkan upaya hukum yang tersedia dalam penipuan konvensional.
Red flags we documented.
- 01Brand name reproduction without authorisationThe domain incorporates the MyEtherWallet name verbatim alongside a professional legal TLD. Legitimate solicitors and recovery firms do not build their identity around a third-party brand. This construction is a documented technique for harvesting search traffic from users seeking help related to a specific wallet service, and it carries an implicit false claim of affiliation.
- 02Legal credential framing with no verifiable basisThe .attorney TLD implies bar membership or professional legal standing in a recognised jurisdiction. Recovery operations using this pattern routinely fail to provide verifiable bar registration numbers, jurisdiction of practice, or the names of qualified solicitors. Where these details are absent or unverifiable, the legal framing should be treated as cosmetic.
- 03Advance-fee payment as the core revenue mechanismRegulated legal professionals in asset recovery provide written engagement letters and fee disclosures before any payment is requested. Operations structured around upfront retainers collected without formal engagement documents are consistent with advance-fee fraud, regardless of how the fees are described.
- 04CryptoScamDB blacklist inclusionThe domain is listed on the CryptoScamDB blacklist, a community-maintained database requiring submitted evidence rather than automated flagging. Presence reflects prior reports from affected parties or researchers and constitutes an independent third-party signal against the operator.
- 05Secondary targeting of prior-loss victims as a specific patternRecovery fraud targets people who have already lost funds, and this operation is positioned precisely for that audience. The combination of a recognised wallet brand name and a legal-service TLD is calibrated to intercept prior victims. A prior loss significantly elevates susceptibility, and any contact with a site in this category should be treated with scepticism.
What you can do now.
Open a free 24-hour case assessment with CryptoLeek +
Tell us what happened. A senior analyst reads your file within 24 hours and replies with an honest yes/no/conditional on recovery. The assessment is free. If we cannot recover the funds we say so plainly, including which (free) regulator channel you should use instead. If we accept the case, we open a numbered case file and issue a written quote for a flat investigation retainer before any work begins, scoped to case complexity, the jurisdictions involved, and the on-chain trail.
Trace your funds on-chain with our analysts +
We trace stolen crypto across BTC, ETH, EVM L2s, Solana, Tron, and major stablecoins using the same toolchain as regulators and tier-1 exchange compliance teams. The output is a forensic report anchored to specific transaction hashes and block heights, the evidence that exchanges, payment processors, and counsel actually act on. Recovery starts here.
Recover with counsel where civil action makes sense +
Where the trace lands in a jurisdiction with cooperative banks and courts, we coordinate with bar-licensed counsel in our 40+ jurisdiction network for civil action and asset-freezing orders (Mareva-style). Counsel bill you directly; the CryptoLeek investigation retainer is independent of counsel fees. The outcome is funds released back to your nominated wallet or bank account.
