CLEVELAND — In my continuing coverage of scams, I've learned there's a new worry for those who have already been victimized, specifically those who lost money in cryptocurrency schemes.

"I'm using my resources to try to recover my funds by a third company that go to scammers by the law enforcement," said the man. He told me fraudsters pose as lawyers from fictitious firms and claim they can recover lost cryptocurrency funds. "We have some of the best in the business, some of the best in the country here in Cleveland," said Koeth."We have some of the best experts here and are able to do intricate level tracing and with the support that we have from the U.S. Attorney's Office, we're able to freeze those funds first and then back it up with the legal process in order to seize that so that we can return it to the victims," said Koeth.
