There is a scam that a friend experienced in the past which is address poisoning, as I later found out. The money is still sitting in the scammer's wallet and visible through blockchain explore. I want to ask if there is anything you can do to recover such fund. I understand it may be a lot of work for you or anyone and I don't even know if such cases are within the scope of your services.

I don’t think it will be possible to get access into someone else’s wallet without their consent, that will be tagged stealing and if it’s possible, then it’s not longer recovering but now hacking and stealing and I’m just they wouldn’t want to tagged as such and with that been said, I think for them to be able to access an lost wallet, then it must be with the consent of the original owner, but now how will they know that, one is an original owner? The answer is by providing the necessary details for the work but my question is that, what if all these details are provided and the person who gives you the job isn’t the original owner of the wallet despite providing you with all the needed informations and details, what will be the repercussions?

Thank you for the response. I was thinking that since the funds are still in the scammers wallet and not yet moved, there could be a way they can recover such funds. I saw somewhere that they don't recover stolen with a phrase that suggested that it might be because scammers would have moved the funds. In this case the funds are still in the wallet which gave me some hopes that it could be recovered. If this is not possible, I will still not be too worried because the owner of the money has already accepted the loss a long time ago.
