Denmark. Swiss counsel. Bern register 2018
Those who took the coins return. Unless someone locks them.
Hastværk er lastværk.Haste is waste. The voice that pushes you is never a court.
In Copenhagen, Aarhus, Odense and Aalborg, fake platforms have reached people who work and save. Being deceived is no shame. The shame would be paying the same people twice.
How the loss usually happens
In Denmark these networks most often arrive through Telegram, Facebook or dating apps: a platform promising weekly returns, an "investment adviser" speaking fluent Danish, or an acquaintance abroad. The first withdrawal goes smoothly to build trust. Then the platform vanishes, or demands a "tax" before payouts.
Report to the police at politi.dk and keep the case number. Check Finanstilsynet's warning list. The report documents the crime. It does not freeze coins held at a platform abroad.
What a Swiss court can do
If the coins still sit at a custodial exchange, a Swiss interim order, backed by a forensic report tying your transaction hashes to a hosted wallet, can ask for a freeze. A support ticket gives you a number. A court order gives you a freeze. A freeze is a lock, not a payment.
Trace first, then freeze, then repatriate to a bank account you control. The fee is 12.5 percent, invoiced only after your bank is paid. No recovery, no fee. We never ask for payment in crypto.
Who calls after a loss
Anyone who calls knowing the amount you lost and offering recovery for upfront fees is the second scam. Victim lists are sold. This desk never calls first, never works on Telegram, and never asks for a seed phrase, a private key, AnyDesk, or a crypto payment.
Sascha Christener, MLaw, has been on the attorney register of the Canton of Bern since February 2018. Search the name on Bern's public register before sending documents. It is the strongest verification available.
How to send the file
In English or Danish, whichever is easier. What happened, the platform name, transaction hashes or transfer references, and your case number if you have one. The evaluation is free, confidential, and written. If the file has no endpoint a court can reach, you will be told early and honestly, not after invoices.
Report a case
Name, email and phone are required. Do not send seed phrases or private keys.
