Cryptocurrency fraud – the price of a lawyer in a digital currency fraud case

The legal status of cryptocurrency in the world is based on various approaches: from a 100% ban and criminalization of crypto to the development by the state of analogs that have a stable rate. The only correct statement today is that it is impossible to ignore virtual currency. Ultimately, this can lead to the loss of control over a significant area of society. Thus, cryptocurrency is an inseparable part of world life, including the economic life of Ukraine. If you are in any way related to fraudulent activities with digital currencies, the lawyers of our law firm Prykhodko and Partners will help protect your interests.

The most common cryptocurrency scams

The following types of fraudulent actions with crypto are most often encountered in practice:

• Fraud in social networks.
• Email fraud.
• Unregulated scams when exchanging cryptocurrency.
• Social engineering scams.
• Scam with ICO - Initial Coin Offering (initial placement of tokens).
• Crypto investment funds.

To date, there is no status of cryptocurrencies determined at the level of current legislation. However, there is, after all, a certain case law that concerns the illegal possession of digital currencies.

Cryptocurrency is stored in special crypto wallets. Access to them is carried out based on the use of appropriate keys and passwords. Types of illegal possession of digital currencies include:

1. Theft is the secret theft of cryptocurrencies.
2. Fraud is the voluntary transfer of cryptocurrency by a victim to another person as a result of deception.

After the violation of the rights of cryptocurrency owners, the question of the legal status of digital currency is very relevant. Currently, in Ukraine, crypto does not belong to the category of property, funds or currency values. That is why victims of cryptocurrency fraud face the impossibility of proving the very fact of the damage caused to them.

Although there is no mechanism to protect the interests of cryptocurrency owners in Ukraine, an investigation into the illegal possession of digital currencies is underway. There are cases when, as part of criminal proceedings, investigative judges impose arrests on crypto-wallets.

Thus, on the territory of Ukraine, the possibility of protecting cryptocurrency investments in court is gradually emerging.
