These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

Investment scam — do not deposit

A fraudulent crypto recovery site using a dissolved UK business identity and fake success statistics to target previous scam victims. Guaranteed-returns, HYIP, and pig-butchering funnels all rely on early "profits" to bait bigger deposits. Any money you send is almost certainly unrecoverable — do not top up to unlock withdrawals.

Confidence
The website exhibits multiple hallmarks of a 'recovery scam' designed to re-victimize people who have already lost money to crypto fraud. While the page claims to have been operating since 2015, our technical data shows the domain was only registered 187 days ago. Furthermore, the UK business entity 'Chargeback Ltd' associated with this name was dissolved in April 2025, meaning it has no legal standing to operate. The claims of a 92% success rate and $250 million in recovered assets are statistically impossible in the world of blockchain forensics and are not supported by any verifiable evidence. Finally, the site lacks a physical address or phone number, which is a major red flag for a financial services provider.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site uses a professional-looking template to project authority, claiming 'military-grade forensics' and partnerships with law enforcement. However, it provides no verifiable staff names, legal credentials, or physical office locations. The success metrics ($250M+ recovered) are common fabrications used in this scam category.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on a common commercial IP with no significant history of abuse, but it relies on generic CDN services to deliver its content. It includes a lead-capture form designed to harvest detailed information about a victim's previous losses, which is then used to tailor a follow-up scam.

Domain History

The domain was registered via NameCheap in late 2024 and is only 187 days old. This directly contradicts the website's claim of 'pioneering cryptocurrency recovery since 2015.' This discrepancy is a definitive indicator of intent to deceive.

Web Reputation

Independent review aggregators and scam-tracking databases have already flagged this domain as a high-risk fraud. Reports highlight the lack of transparency and the use of a dissolved company registration to appear legitimate to unsuspecting users.
Risk Factors
6
  • Domain age (187 days) contradicts the 10-year history claimed on the site.
  • Associated UK business entity (Company 15235827) is officially dissolved.
  • Uses a known 'Recovery Scam' template designed to harvest victim data.
  • Claims of a 92% success rate for crypto recovery are statistically impossible.
  • No physical address or verifiable phone number provided for the business.
  • Multiple scam reports and a 1% trust rating from independent security analysts.
Positive Signals
2
  • Valid SSL certificate issued by Sectigo.
  • Currently clean of traditional file-based malware detections.
AI Recommendation
Do not fill out the 'Free Consultation' form or provide any details about your previous financial losses. Legitimate recovery of stolen cryptocurrency is extremely rare, and any service promising high success rates or asking for personal data is likely a scam.

Research summary
Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above
Research into this domain reveals it is flagged as a fraudulent website on several scam-reporting platforms. A UK company named CHARGEBACK LTD was found in official records, but it was dissolved in early 2025 and had a very short lifespan. Independent review sites give the domain a 1% trust score, noting that the owner's identity is hidden and the site's claims of working with international law enforcement are completely unverified.

Investment scam indicators

The page shows patterns common to HYIP, forex, pig-butchering, and guaranteed-returns grifts.

  • Do not interact with chargebackltd.com

    Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.

  • Any money you send is almost certainly gone

    These schemes pay out early "profits" to bait bigger deposits, then block withdrawals or demand a "tax" / "liquidity fee" to release funds. Do not top up to unlock a withdrawal — that's the same grift.

  • If you already deposited — act immediately

    Contact your bank or card issuer about a chargeback, freeze further transfers, and gather every screenshot, WhatsApp / Telegram thread, and transaction ID. Do not engage with "recovery agents" who reach out after the loss — those are themselves a follow-up scam.

  • Report to your financial regulator

    US: sec.gov/tcr, cftc.gov or reportfraud.ftc.gov. UK: FCA ScamSmart. EU: your national financial regulator. Reports feed public warning registers other victims check.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review flags chargebackltd.com as dangerous. Multiple threat indicators were detected — treat the site as a scam until proven otherwise.
  • No — chargebackltd.com scored 17/100 on our trust scale. We detected active threat indicators, so we recommend avoiding the site entirely.
  • Yes. chargebackltd.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Sectigo Limited · Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36, expiring in 225 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • chargebackltd.com is 6 months old, registered on 12/13/2025 through NameCheap, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report chargebackltd.com as clean.
  • No. chargebackltd.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • chargebackltd.com resolves to an IP operated by Namecheap, Inc. in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 18, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around chargebackltd.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.

Final Verdict

0
Trust / 100
Final Verdict·chargebackltd.com
DANGEROUS

This site is a classic recovery scam that targets victims of previous cryptocurrency fraud with impossible promises of asset retrieval. The domain is less than seven months old, yet it claims to have recovered $250 million since 2015. You should not provide any personal information or payment to this operator.

Do not fill out the 'Free Consultation' form or provide any details about your previous financial losses. Legitimate recovery of stolen cryptocurrency is extremely rare, and any service promising high success rates or asking for personal data is likely a scam.
