Traced and got back my crypto.

I got swindled by a romantic and lost $8,000 in crypto currency to a fake tether investment playtform,I reported to the police here in Deutchland but nothing was done.
Decided to try my hands on a private crypto tracking company although I had my doubts but I'm happy I didn't give into them.
I just got a text in my email from them that they've been able to track and get back my money.
I can now give my full nod on the legitimacy of this company.
I got in contact with them on their complaint link on mailxto.com/crw9ys where i Made my report.

Type of a scam Credit Repair/Debt Relief

Got a call from someone named Matsui Izumi from Wailuku, HI with no number showing on caller ID, saying that he's from the BBB and can help me with debt consolidation if I give him my credit/debit card numbers. He had my full name, address, DOB, and last 4 SSN. I verified with BBB that they don't cold call anyone and they don't offer debt consolidation services.

I did not click on the link embedded within the email. I figured it was a scam so I called the BBB Office in Anchorage and the receptionist told me it was indeed a scam because of the email address from which it was sent. The Case Number is where the link is provided. It doesn't show up in this email I am sending to the Scam Tracker as the Case Number is highlighted in blue as the link. I was not scammed but I am reporting this illegal activity to BBB.

I received a call from the same man 3 different times. He stated I had won a gift of $100,000.00 from the BBB. He said I would need to pay $95.00 in order to receive it. He then said I would have to call a number he would give me in NV so I could provide him with my financial information. I told him I knew this was a scam and to never call me again.

Type of a scam Online Purchase
Initial means of contact Not applicable

I logged on to HTTPS://BIT.LY/2Yl1JZFE because it said it was a under armour website and everything was at least 80%off so I ordered a lot on there and when it came to put banking info in it took me to this lady on pay pal to owe her $100. I've asked her multiple times to cancel my order since it was a scam and no response I've tried getting in contact with pay pal they said they can't do anything about it. I didn't want to pay for it since I read the comments and literally everyone on there tried to order stuff paid for it and never got there package. Uncalled for. The lady won't respond to me just took my money and ran. I closed my card after this happened and it still came through.

I work for an office in downtown Seattle and at 3:51PM PST, I received a call from a female from 1-800-110-4519, stating that she worked for the BBB and wanted to know if our office would be moving in the near future. She said she wanted to know this information for logistical planning purposes. When I told her we are not moving, she hung up. I tried calling back but no answer.
