Dear Clients,
One of the most common questions we receive is: “Does it make sense to report if I lost only a small amount?”
The answer is – absolutely yes.
In criminal proceedings related to investment platform frauds, every individual report matters, because:
- It proves the scale of the fraud.
The more victims and reports there are, the easier it is to establish that this was a systematic scheme, not isolated incidents. - It strengthens the victims’ position in the proceedings.
The number of reports affects the severity of the offense, increasing the likelihood that charges will be filed against all responsible parties and that the court will impose protective measures in favor of investors. - It increases the chances of fund recovery.
The prosecution traces the overall flow of money – all reported amounts are included in the total damage. This means even small amounts help identify the accounts, companies, and individuals through which funds and cryptocurrencies were transferred. - It helps uncover new leads.
Often, smaller investors preserve messages, payment proofs, or screenshots that later become crucial for the investigation.
For all these reasons, we recommend filing a report even if the amount seems minor, as every piece of evidence and every statement contributes to the success of the case as a whole.
Kind regards,
Attorney Zoran Miljaković
