A prominent crypto fraud investigator will reject assistance requests from victims in seven jurisdictions due to poor case-handling experiences.
Onchain investigator ZachXBT announced plans to automatically reject future requests for help from crypto victims in Canada, the UK, India, Nigeria, Morocco, Algeria, and Bangladesh. The decision follows reported difficulties in handling cases from these regions, citing low-quality interactions and outcomes.
ZachXBT stated that his upcoming website will restrict access to crypto support services for users in these jurisdictions. The move reflects broader challenges in cross-border fraud investigations and victim assistance within the crypto space.
The announcement highlights growing concerns over jurisdictional disparities in crypto-related legal and investigative processes, though no immediate market reaction was noted.
