Recovery scams target people who have already been scammed. Victims are often contacted by someone claiming to be a recovery expert, investigator, hacker, lawyer, or company that can recover lost funds.
These scams usually happen fast. Someone says they’ve sent payment, then provides a screenshot or fake email confirmation designed to look real. Sometimes they “accidentally overpay” and ask for money back before the victim realizes nothing was actually deposited.
These scams are designed to look legitimate. The person may seem kind, patient, and genuinely interested in helping you “learn investing.” Victims are often shown fake profits that make the platform feel real and trustworthy.

This book was written by a human. It was researched, questioned, argued, and shaped with the help of three artificial intelligence systems: Claude (Anthropic), ChatGPT (OpenAI), and Gemini (Google). Each Al contributed differently. Each was given the same material and asked the same questions. Each responded differently. That difference is part of the point. The three forewords that follow were produced under one identical instruction: with all the data gathered during the work on this book, write a foreword in your own voice; the Al's own voice - stating what your endorsement would be. No script, no coaching on what to say. The Author then asked each Al to "sign" the foreword, and each did.
No edits were made. The forewords appear exactly as each Al produced them— verbatim, unedited, untouched. Their signatures appear below each foreword. None of them can actually sign their names. None of them have hands. That limitation alone should tell you something about what they are and what they are not.
The human kept pulling the human voice back from the machine. That is what this book required. And that is what every reader deserves to know before the first chapter begins.
