I was contacted like many to provide information to recover my lost funds.
I was contacted like many to provide a Financial Background Assessment Form, which is pretty much all of my personal information. On providing such a form, it would start the "process" of recovery of my crypto wallet funds according to the mail and the telephone conversation.
The mail came from address "certik-audit . c o m" although it was a link to site certik.com.
Everything seems off. Do not proceed.

This compay are big time scamers
This compay are big time scamers, once you make a payment. You won't hear form them.
And they work with a fake AML Anti-Money Laundering Team, individuals.
Judgment day is coming, these scamers will reap what they are sowing.
Afford them at all cost..

I have been hounded for 3 months by this fraudulent company. No matter how many numbers (15), I have blocked, no matter how rude I have been, they continue to call.
I finally gave them an email address to prove who they are so that I could investigate and surprise, the same garbage as the other complaints listed here.
Don't touch them, block all communication and good luck. If you advise that they are scammers, they argue the point. Move on.

Crypto recovery fraudsters
Dear XXX,
Certik .com is a front for scamming people to try and recover funds invested in Fraudulent Crypto Schemes.
Here is a transcript of an email I received looking to help recover fund that were invested and grew (allegedly) to a substantial amount. Whilst I recovered my initial deposited funds through Visa, this guy wanted to help me get access to over $100,000 funds frozen in an Account under my name. But first he wanted me to set up a Crypto wallet and Link this to a Bank Account. This is a typical approach by scammers operating through false international agencies. Be aware of this guy.
It was a pleasure speaking with you earlier today. As discussed, I am reaching out to provide a formal overview of how Certik.com assists victims of fraudulent trading platforms in recovering their lost assets.
We understand that navigating the aftermath of a fraudulent investment can be overwhelming. Our role is to handle the complex legal and financial forensic work required to trace and reclaim those funds on your behalf.
The Recovery Process: A 3-Step Overview
1. Forensic Analysis & Evidence Gathering: We begin by auditing the transaction history between your accounts and the platform in question. This allows us to map the flow of funds and identify the specific financial institutions involved.
2. Legal & Regulatory Intervention: Leveraging our legal expertise, we submit formal disputes and "Letters of Claim" to the relevant banks and payment processors. We work directly with regulatory bodies in both European and Australian jurisdictions to freeze and reverse illicit transfers.
3. Settlement & Fund Restoration: Once the recovery is successful, the funds are securely returned to your designated account.
Our Commitment to Your Security
Given the nature of these cases, we prioritize your financial safety. To that end, please note that Certik does not require any upfront payments or "retainer fees" to initiate this recovery procedure. Our interests are fully aligned with yours; we operate on a performance-based structure, ensuring that our success is tied directly to the return of your assets.
Next Steps
To move forward with the initial assessment, please reply to this email with any documentation you have regarding the platform (such as transaction receipts or correspondence).
I have included my full contact details below should you have any immediate questions.
Best regards,
Viktor Hermann
