Investment scam · $1,160,000"It's more than just trust for us. You've confirmed that there are industry leaders of exemplary character, and you've given us hope, which is priceless."
Investment fraud"My assets were small compared to the $5.6 million recovered by this company. However, I knew they worked as hard for me as for the companies that lost a large amount."
Sophisticated cryptocurrency scam"While my recovery is still ongoing the results to date have been very encouraging and includes bi-weekly reporting keeping me informed step by step."
Behind the case: While discussing his case with a personal contact at the FBI, Cliff was told it would be better to go through Van Orton Recovery than to rely solely on a law enforcement-led investigation.
Romance scam · lifetime savings lost"No sugar coating, no false promises. They are focused on doing their research and delivering what they said they will."
Behind the case: Being defrauded a second time by a fake recovery service before finding us is not uncommon. Secondary scammers actively target fraud victims using information bought from the original scammers.
Cryptocurrency scam · payment plan arranged"Van Orton Recovery also gave us a payment plan that worked for us during this difficult time. I would recommend Van Orton Recovery for anybody going through a cryptocurrency scam. You need someone on your side that can speak for you."
Behind the case: we froze the stolen funds, and a Klarna payment plan let Robert proceed with the recovery during a financially difficult time.
Asset recovery · $15,000 partial recovery"Hiring them has given me great comfort. They are very knowledgeable. Very responsive. And they hold themselves to a very high ethical standard. A premium service for premium results."
Asset recovery · Trustpilot verified"This company has been honest to deal with and very personal in explaining the process. If you need help with asset recovery, I would highly recommend Van Orton."
