“There are truly no words to fully express my gratitude for the remarkable assistance your firm provided in recovering my lost funds. I had fallen victim to a complex forex trading scam run by an unregulated broker, where deceptive promises of high returns led to a significant loss of 5,970,000 CHF. After months of trying to resolve the issue on my own, I was losing hope, but your firm was a true beacon of light.
Your deep knowledge of fraud cases, especially in dealing with scams like boiler room fraud and crypto Ponzi schemes, made all the difference. The legal strategy you implemented, from thoroughly investigating the fraudulent brokerage to navigating the complexities of cross-border legalities, was nothing short of extraordinary. You not only managed to recover the full amount but also helped me take steps to prevent further fraud exposure.
What stood out to me the most was your firm’s tireless attention to detail, responsiveness, and the personalized care I received throughout the process. I would wholeheartedly recommend your services to anyone facing financial fraud, particularly in cases involving international brokers or high-risk investment scams.”

What Types of Fraud Can Horstman Fraud & Investigation Help With?
If you’ve been scammed, identifying the type of fraud you’ve experienced is crucial for determining the right course of legal action. Our firm handles a wide range of financial fraud cases, including but not limited to:
- Investment Fraud: Investment fraud involves scammers enticing victims with false promises of high returns from stocks, bonds, forex, and other financial instruments. Victims are often pressured into investing large sums, only to find their funds have vanished. We can help recover losses from fake brokers, Ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes, and other deceptive investment operations.
- Wire Fraud: Wire fraud is one of the most common types of fraud in the digital age. It typically involves the transfer of funds through wire systems, such as bank transfers or online payment platforms, often as part of phishing attacks, business email compromise (BEC), or other scams. We can assist in tracking and recovering these illicitly transferred funds.
- Cryptocurrency Fraud: The rise of cryptocurrencies has given scammers a new avenue to exploit victims. From fraudulent initial coin offerings (ICOs) to Ponzi schemes disguised as legitimate crypto investments, the complexities of these scams require a deep understanding of blockchain technology and the legal landscape around it. Our team is equipped to help you navigate these complex cases and recover your stolen digital assets.
- Forex Trading Scams: These scams involve unregulated brokers promising high returns from foreign exchange trading. Victims are often enticed with impressive, fabricated gains, only to find that their investments were manipulated, with funds siphoned off by the scam operators.
How Does Horstman Fraud & Investigation Help Victims Recover Their Funds?
At Horstman Fraud & Investigation, we understand how overwhelming it can be to navigate the aftermath of financial fraud. Our goal is to make the process as straightforward and stress-free as possible. Here’s a step-by-step outline of how we work with victims of fraud to recover their stolen assets:
1. Comprehensive Case Assessment
Our first step is to fully understand the details of your situation. Every case of fraud is unique, and our team will conduct an in-depth analysis of the scam, the fraudulent parties involved, and the methods used to steal your funds. This will include a review of contracts, communication records, and financial transactions.
2. Legal Strategy Development
Once we’ve gathered the necessary information, our experienced legal team will develop a tailored strategy for your case. This can involve multiple approaches, including litigation, mediation, or working with international authorities if the fraud occurred across borders.
3. Asset Tracing
In many cases, fraudsters try to hide or move stolen funds to make recovery difficult. Our team employs cutting-edge techniques in forensic accounting and asset tracing to follow the money trail, even across international borders, to find out where your money has gone.
4. Litigation and Legal Representation
If legal action is necessary, we will represent you in court to hold the fraudulent parties accountable. Our attorneys have extensive experience in fraud litigation, and we are prepared to fight vigorously to recover your funds. In some cases, we work with international legal networks to address cross-border fraud issues.
5. Negotiating Settlements
Sometimes fraudsters or brokers may be willing to settle out of court. We are skilled negotiators who can help you recover your funds without the need for lengthy litigation, ensuring the best possible outcome with minimal stress.
6. Ongoing Support and Prevention
Beyond recovering your funds, we provide clients with advice on how to avoid falling victim to fraud again. We offer guidance on best practices for identifying scams and protecting your investments in the future.
Common Questions Victims Ask
How do I know if I’ve been a victim of fraud?

Can you help recover funds from international fraudsters?

Horstman Fraud & Investigation has a vast network of international contacts, including lawyers, investigators, and regulators, that help us track and recover funds from fraudsters operating abroad.
What should I do if I suspect I’ve been scammed?
Time is of the essence in fraud cases. If you believe you’ve fallen victim to a scam, immediately stop all communication with the fraudsters and contact us for help. The sooner we begin investigating, the better your chances of recovering your funds.
What are my chances of getting my money back?
Every case is unique, and the chances of recovery depend on several factors, including the nature of the fraud, the amount of time since the fraud occurred, and the actions taken by the scammer to hide the funds. While no recovery can be guaranteed, we have a strong track record of success, even in complex cases involving large sums and international parties.
