Puran handles several scenarios :

According to their materials, Puran supports major tokens including: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Binance Coin (BNB), Cardano (ADA), Dogecoin (DOGE), Tether (USDT), XRP, and most blockchain-based assets
Act quickly (within 48-72 hours is critical) :
-
Gather all evidence – transaction IDs, wallet addresses, scammer communications (emails, screenshots, URLs)
-
Report to authorities – FBI’s IC3 (ic3.gov), FTC, local police
-
Contact the exchange involved (Binance, Coinbase, etc.)
-
Secure remaining assets – change passwords, enable 2FA, move funds to hardware wallet
-
Consider professional help – research recovery services carefully
Avoid any recovery service that :
-
Guarantees 100% recovery (impossible due to blockchain’s nature)
-
Demands large upfront payments before assessing your case
-
Asks for your private keys or seed phrases (legitimate firms never need these)
-
Contacts you unsolicited via social media, email, or phone
-
Has no verifiable physical address or registration
-
Uses pressure tactics urging immediate payment
Puran operates on a success-based fee model :
-
10% commission on recovered funds
-
No upfront fees for most cases (half upfront may be required for complex cases)
-
Free consultation within 48 hours with no obligation
Puran follows a structured four-step process :
Step 1: Free Case Assessment – Submit your case details via their website. Within 48 hours, they evaluate if recovery is possible at no cost.
Step 2: Blockchain Forensics – Their proprietary Cross-Chain Mapping Blockchain (CCMB) technology traces funds across networks, even through mixers or privacy coins.
Step 3: Recovery Execution – They work with exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, Kraken) and law enforcement (FBI, Interpol across 48 jurisdictions) to freeze and recover assets .
Step 4: Secure Transfer – Recovered funds are transferred to a new, secure wallet with guidance on preventing future losses.
