Diane was introduced to Elvan FX by someone she had grown close to online over several months. The investment was framed as their shared future. The losses, when they came, were both financial and personal — the hardest combination we work with.
We treated her case with the care it deserved and the rigour it required. The trace followed her transfers through several hops to two exchanges; a meaningful share had already been laundered, but not all of it.
“It was not just money. I believed in someone. Telling my story to an investigator who took it seriously, and getting part of it back, helped me start trusting myself again.”— Diane K., Sacramento, California
Diane recovered $53,700 — about 34%. Romance-investment cases are among the most painful and rarely end in full recovery, because the grooming period gives the operation time to move funds. We pursued every reachable dollar and documented the rest for law enforcement.
