About Ottawa Capital Recovery
Ottawa Capital Recovery: investment fraud investigation and asset recovery
Ottawa Capital Recovery is a Canadian firm based in Ottawa dedicated to investigating investment fraud and recovering assets for individuals and families affected by online scams. Its team combines licensed investigators, forensic analysts and legal professionals, and works both in Canada and in other jurisdictions where stolen funds end up.
The firm presents a track record of more than 500 cases investigated and more than $25 million recovered, and offers a free, confidential initial case review. Its fee model is contingent: it only charges when it succeeds in recovering the money.
Areas of work across different types of scam
The firm's activity is organised into six areas covering the fraud patterns that, according to its own description, it handles most often in Ottawa and internationally:
- Crypto asset tracing: tracking stolen digital currency across the blockchain to exit points at centralised exchanges, with the aim of freezing it.
- Forex and CFD scams: investigating unlicensed offshore brokers and fraudulent account liquidations to build a recovery case.
- Romance and social engineering fraud: identifying perpetrators across borders through digital footprint forensics and evidence gathering.
- Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) guidance: using mediation and arbitration to reach settlements without the delays and costs of traditional courts.
- KYC verification: preparing compliance documentation so exchanges release legitimate funds held in frozen accounts.
- Legal support: case assessment, legal strategy and representation through to enforcement of the judgment.
The four-stage recovery process
The working method described by the company is structured in four steps. It begins with a free case review, in which the evidence, the platform involved and the realistic viability of recovery are assessed. This is followed by an investigation phase combining blockchain forensics, broker verification and identity tracing to document the money's path.
Third, the firm takes legal action: it files complaints with regulators, approaches exchanges and pursues freezing orders, arbitration or settlement. The final stage is recovery itself, in which funds are returned through the exchange, the broker or the enforced judgment. Payment of fees is conditional on the outcome.
Client profile and documented cases
The firm targets its service at those who have been victims of investment fraud and, according to its presentation, at people who had been told there was nothing that could be done. Among the cases it mentions are offshore forex broker scams, fake cryptocurrency exchanges, romance fraud with an investment component, CFD trading fraud, bank impersonation, crypto wallet drains and binary options schemes.
The published testimonials refer to clients from various Canadian locations, such as Vancouver, Victoria, Ottawa, Calgary, Gatineau, Toronto and Kanata, with recovered amounts ranging from $31,800 to $128,000 and resolution times of between six and fourteen weeks. The company reports an average rating of 4.9 from more than 180 reviewed cases.
