A few days ago, Zhang's legal team received a consultation. The client is from Taiwan and had bought 4 million worth of Ethereum a few years ago, but due to identity issues, he placed the coins in his girlfriend's best friend's boyfriend's account, as the other party didn't understand it anyway. He registered an email and other binding services himself.
The value has appreciated several times in recent years. A while ago, I was preparing to take it back, but I found that I couldn't log into my account, and things like my email had been changed. I contacted the other party, but they ignored me, which made me anxious. In a rush, I found a local lawyer who said he had mysterious powers and charged me 200,000.
But the mysterious force did not help him with the matter, only saying to catch people. As long as they catch someone, it is considered handled, and the money will not be refunded, not guaranteeing that the coins can be retrieved...
The client felt it was unreliable, but since the money was given, to ensure double security, they found Lawyer Zhang's team, and our lawyer immediately intervened in this 'dispute'.
Lawyer Zhang personally intervened in this 'case' because I know that many times, matters concerning human nature are not limited to legal knowledge and require unconventional social engineering.
Of course, the uncle definitely does not want to and is not obliged to issue a verification document or request the exchange to unfreeze it. Therefore, the unfreezing of the exchange falls on our client.
Contact the exchange's customer service, submit identity documents, and finally need to submit one document: proof of ownership of the wallet used for the first deposit (recharge).
So many years have passed, and the wallet used for the first recharge is long gone.
So both parties went back first, the other party's sense of fear disappeared, and they consulted a lawyer...
The other party's lawyer told him that there is no issue...
Unexpected issues arose.
The other party is not uncooperative, claiming they do not understand the cryptocurrency world, do not understand the exchange, and have long forgotten the login email. Whatever you need me to cooperate with, I will, but you cannot force me...
At this point, the uncle would also not care about this matter anymore. The other party's fear is gradually decreasing, which indeed puts pressure on Lawyer Zhang.
So what should we do? Then let's talk. The other party is also willing to cooperate, but they also need to verify Lawyer Zhang's abilities. They won't tell me anything; you can check it yourself.
First, we need to log into his exchange account, and now there is no information available. We must obtain the login email.
The customer service could not reset the email through identity verification because they do not know anything about the email. So we continued with the verification, and we obtained an Outlook Microsoft email, which is quite professional.
So the question arises again, how can we prove that this email belongs to the other party? Right, how do you prove that this email is mine? And that it's the account name of this exchange?
Ordinary people would have no way out by now. I stared at him and said: Are you sure you have no vulnerabilities? If you have even a slight vulnerability, we can also send you in. If you cooperate with us, we can enjoy the benefits; if you do not cooperate, then you'll get 'beaten'.
You can see the current situation. The exchange is frozen, and you will never be able to withdraw it in your lifetime. Only by cooperating with each other can the assets inside be retrieved. If we can get it back, I will give you 500,000. If you do not cooperate and I find your vulnerabilities, trying to lie with the intention of illegal possession, we will definitely send you in.
The other party hesitated for a moment and told Lawyer Zhang: I really do not remember the email and password. You prove that this email is mine, and I will fully cooperate.
I prove that this email is yours, or that this is the login account for this exchange. You just need to fully cooperate with me, and we can enjoy the benefits together. If you try to find other excuses, I, an old man, once took off my suit and was a rogue.
The other party agreed, so let's talk about martial ethics. Therefore, many times you need to learn from Confucius as he traveled to various states to teach. If you do not listen, he will bring along his three thousand disciples and 72 disciples to reason with you.
I logged into the official Microsoft email website, clicked on password recovery, then entered the other party's name and ID information, birthday information, and entered my own email for password recovery. The verification result will then be sent to our email.
Input the previous password of the exchange and the password combination of the other party's name and birthday.
Then it is necessary to verify the content of the previous emails and the email addresses that have been contacted.
We do not know what emails the other party has sent because it is a new email address. It is basically impossible for them to have sent emails, so they can only have received emails.
So how can we know if the informer has contacted this new email? You, being smart, must know what actions they have taken?
That means binding to the exchange, and there must be a verification code from the exchange's email. Thus, we bypassed Microsoft's email password recovery system and obtained a new password for this email address.
When we presented the exchange's password recovery system page, the Microsoft email login password interface, the withdrawal records of the exchange, and 500,000 cash in front of the other party, their psychological defenses had already collapsed.
At this point, we just need to tell him: cooperate with the withdrawal and get 500,000 cash; you can take it immediately. If you do not cooperate, a record of theft will be filed. You have one minute to think about your answer to me.
After 10 seconds, the other party agreed to cooperate with unfreezing the exchange and withdrawing funds.
Done.
