ZURICH, SWITZERLAND – After nearly seven years of uncertainty and loss, a Swiss citizen has successfully recovered CHF 759,000 worth of Bitcoin thanks to the dedicated efforts of the legal and investigative team at Financial Conduct Services (FCS).
The client, who wishes to remain anonymous, first acquired Bitcoin in the early years of cryptocurrency adoption. Unfortunately, in the years that followed, he fell victim to multiple scam platforms and misleading custodial services that locked away or misdirected his digital assets. “I thought the funds were gone forever,” he stated. “It felt impossible to trace or access anything.”
Direct Contact with FCS Attorney Sparked Breakthrough
Earlier this year, the client reached out to FCS through their secure legal intake form. He was quickly placed in contact with one of FCS’s licensed attorneys, who began a deep investigation into the transaction history, cold storage identifiers, and wallet movement across blockchain records.
The breakthrough came when FCS was able to locate and verify a trail of Bitcoin that had been inaccessible since 2017—locked in a dormant storage vault associated with a now-defunct crypto service provider.
After weeks of legal and technical effort, the recovery process reached a pivotal point: the blockchain platform required a release fee of CHF 24,000 to verify identity, process international KYC compliance, and authorize asset transfer under the jurisdiction of Swiss and EU regulations.
Client Authorized Fee—And Regained His Funds
The client, after fully understanding the process and with full confidence in the FCS legal team, authorized the payment of CHF 24,000 to initiate the final stage. With that, the recovery was successfully executed, and CHF 759,000 in Bitcoin was safely returned to his possession.
“I was nervous about paying anything upfront, but FCS explained everything clearly. I could see they were the real deal,” said the client. “I trusted their attorney—and it paid off. Literally.”
