What Evidence Do You Need to Recover Lost Funds?

A detective deep in thought, analyzing a crime investigation board filled with photos and notes.

Being a victim of fraud can be emotionally draining and financially devastating. At Fast-Recover, we understand that time is of the essence when trying to get your money back. But before any recovery process can begin, having the right evidence is critical.

Whether you were scammed through an online investment, phishing, romance fraud, or cryptocurrency scheme, providing solid proof will drastically increase your chances of success. So, what exactly should you gather?

🔍 1. Transaction Records

Your bank statements, payment receipts, and transaction IDs are vital. These help show how much money was lost, when it was sent, and who received it. Screenshots of bank transfers, PayPal payments, or crypto wallet addresses are all useful here.

What to include:

  • Date and time of each payment
  • Method of payment (bank, crypto, card, etc.)
  • The recipient’s name, account, or wallet address

💬 2. Communication History

Every message exchanged with the scammer is valuable evidence. This helps build a timeline and may reveal deceitful tactics used against you.

Gather:

  • Emails
  • Text messages
  • Social media DMs
  • Chat app conversations (WhatsApp, Telegram, etc.)

Tip: Never delete chats, even if they’re painful to look at—they could be the key to recovery.


🧾 3. Screenshots of the Scam

If you found the scam on a website, social media platform, or ad—take screenshots or screen recordings. Many scammers delete their posts or websites after they’ve tricked enough people.

Capture:

  • Website URLs
  • Fake profiles
  • Online ads
  • Investment dashboards
  • Promised returns or “contracts”

🧠 4. Details About the Scammer

Even small bits of information can help us or law enforcement trace the culprit.

Try to collect:

  • Email addresses
  • Phone numbers
  • Usernames or aliases
  • Social media profiles
  • Company or website names (even if they’re fake)

🧾 5. Complaint or Police Report (if any)

If you’ve already reported the scam to the police, your bank, or a cybercrime agency, include copies of those reports. This shows you’ve taken steps toward recovery and creates a legal trail.
