AML & Compliance Policy

[Your Brand Name] is committed to complying with all applicable anti-money laundering (AML), counter-terrorist financing (CTF), and sanctions laws and regulations.

This policy outlines our procedures for:

• Customer due diligence and identity verification (KYC)
• Transaction monitoring and detection of suspicious activity
• Reporting obligations to relevant authorities
• Record keeping and document retention
• Employee training and compliance oversight

Important Note
We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate existing engagements, or report suspicious activity to authorities as required by law.

As part of our AML compliance program, we implement Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures for all clients engaging our recovery services.

We may require the following information before initiating case evaluation or recovery services:

• Full legal name and date of birth
• Government-issued identification (passport, driver’s license, or national ID)
• Proof of address (utility bill, bank statement dated within 3 months)
• Source of funds documentation for large cases
• Wallet ownership verification (signed message or micro-transaction)

We reserve the right to request additional documentation based on risk assessment or regulatory requirements.

 Important Note
Failure to provide requested KYC documentation may result in delayed processing or termination of services.

We continuously monitor all transactions and blockchain activity related to client cases for potential red flags or suspicious patterns.

Our monitoring includes but is not limited to:

Analysis of transaction sources and destinations
 Identification of known scam or high-risk wallet addresses
 Detection of unusual transaction patterns or rapid fund movements
 Cross-referencing against sanctions lists and watchlists
 Monitoring for use of mixers, tumblers, or privacy coins

Transactions that trigger red flags may be subject to enhanced due diligence or reporting obligations.

We are legally obligated to report suspicious activity to relevant authorities when detected. This includes but is not limited to:
