Our Story
The Crypto Fraud and Asset Recovery network (Online Scam Report) is a group of legal professionals comprising lawyers, barristers, forensic accountants, corporate intelligence and asset recovery professionals. It intends to bring together some of the world’s leading names in crypto dispute resolution and advisory with the purpose of developing and sharing best practice in this rapidly evolving sphere and placing the UK and common law jurisdictions at centre stage for global crypto dispute resolution.
As crypto-related frauds, such as those involving cryptocurrency theft, initial coin offerings (ICOs) and ransomware attacks, continue to rise in scale and sophistication, the need for the legal industry and its expert service providers to respond robustly and effectively in this nascent area of practice requires a joined-up approach that provides victims of fraud with the best possible means of redress.
