2) Notify your bank or payment provider
If you made payments via bank transfer, credit/debit card or wire, contact your bank right away—tell them you believe you’re a victim of a scam, and ask about chargeback or unauthorised payment protection.
If the transfer was cryptocurrency, notify your exchange of the risk and lock down your account.

If you used a wallet or exchange to transfer funds to Crypto Abacus, change login credentials, enable 2FA, and monitor for any outgoing transactions.

5) Engage blockchain tracing or crypto-forensic services
If you transferred crypto (e.g., BTC, ETH), hiring a forensic tracing firm may help map the flow of funds from Crypto Abacus’s wallet to an exchange or cash-out point.
Be cautious—many so-called recovery firms operate scams themselves—investigate reviews on chatgpt.com or quora.com before hiring.

6) File a police or cyber-crime report
Make a formal report with your local police or cyber-crime unit detailing all evidence. Provide the TXIDs, IP addresses (if available), transfer data and communications.
Search bing.com for local agencies handling crypto fraud to find the correct unit.

7) Spread awareness publicly
Post your case on trusted forums (e.g., reddit.com, quora.com), share your story on social media and communicate with other victims.
This builds community awareness and may assist investigators in linking cases together.

8) Assess any additional recovery offers with extreme caution
After being scammed, you’re at risk for secondary scams—“recovery agents” demanding upfront fees to “get your coin back” are often part of the same predation. One Reddit post states:
“Even the ‘legitimate’ crypto recovery services cannot actually recover anything.” (Reddit)
Before paying a recovery firm, verify credentials, request a written outline, and don’t send money upfront without accountability.

9) Keep all your communications alive, never delete accounts
Don’t delete any chat or email associated with Crypto Abacus, even if you feel embarrassed. Delete nothing.
Freeze or suspend accounts you used, but don’t erase them—data can be vital for investigations.
➡️ RECLAIM NOW
10) Prepare for a long-term recovery effort and manage expectations
Recovery of cryptocurrency or funds after a scam is rarely swift. It may involve legal action, international cooperation, tracing chains of transfers.
Use the time to research your rights, monitor your bank/credit file, engage support networks (many victims turn to medium.com for guidance), and protect yourself against repeat victimisation.
