btchelpneeded,

Bro, if you’re still around, I actually did talk to several lawyers recently. Real ones, some in person. All basically said the same thing, and one even said that it’s possible YOU could be sanctioned and have to pay the defendants (Tradefortress’) legal and court fees, believe it or not. The reason primarily, among other things, is the statute of limitations. Basically, in a nut shell, you simply can’t just wait 12 or 13 YEARS or whatever and then decide to take legal action, regardless of the increase in value. You can’t just go $10k, meh $50k…. Ok now it’s $100k I’ll take my bitcoin back now please and file a lawsuit now. ALL lawyers confirmed you’d only get the value of what you lost at the time of loss even IF you filed in time, as it was for Trendon Shavers BCST scam for example. It’s over my friend, we just have to move on.

Let me know what they say! Especially with it being a 12 year old claim!

I did look into it also, legally: A class action 12 years post incident is going to be brought against Statute of Limitations + other issues. Also, almost all courts will view the loss you incurred at the date the fraud happened, meaning in the eyes of the law you lost whatever the bitcoin was worth in 2013, not $300k, because you did not LOSE $300k. Sorry, but I don’t think it’s going to work-

I lost 4.5 from CL and I like you had no interest in taking legal action 12 years ago (or even at 10k or 50k price). Probably the smartest move as I would have definitely sold way before current market value! But making the move to do something now means we can get the btc back at today’s prices!! Right?
