Thank you for the supportive responses, indeed it was a mistake sending to FixedFloat in the first place and as such this has been a learning process for me.

While I do not hope to recover any of my funds anymore, I'm still pursuing a long and tedious legal path in the hopes of getting both FixedFloat and Trocador in trouble with a regulatory entity that does actually have the power to make life much harder for them, if not actually shut them down. Lawyers typically charge extremely high amounts and my loss of 0.06 BTC was relatively small by their standards. So I'm doing as much of the legal work myself as I can.

Once it is all over and done with, even if I am not successful myself, I will post all my learnings here so that others who are similarly scammed by these entities can also hit them where it hurts and build up pressure on them to start acting responsibly or lose their ability to operate.

I fully support efforts to deter cybercrime and also to make victims of crime whole in any possible manner. But this AML/KYC theater is obviously creating its own wave of criminals like the two entities here. Only these criminals actually act in the name of the law even as they themselves break the very same laws that they are supposedly protecting. How Orwellian...
