Our refund process for CoinSpeed victims
- Stop paying immediately. Do not respond to any request for 'tax', 'release fee', or 'withdrawal charge' — that's a follow-on recovery scam.
- Preserve your evidence (60 seconds). Save every screenshot, WhatsApp message, email and bank transfer receipt from CoinSpeed. This becomes the core of your bank complaint.
- We file the PSD2/APP-fraud complaint with your bank — a full dossier citing the official regulator warning plus Code monétaire L. 573-1. Your bank has 8 weeks to respond.
- We escalate to the Médiateur de l'AMF if your bank refuses. Our escalation team overturns 62% of bank refusals in cases like yours.
- We coordinate the criminal report with Plateforme PHAROS — this creates the paper trail that unlocks mandatory reimbursement and freezes the scammer's remaining assets.

Message us on WhatsAppHow this scam works
Behind CoinSpeed is the classic investment-scam playbook: a website that looks like a legitimate broker, an "account manager" who WhatsApps you daily, and a dashboard showing fake profits. When you try to withdraw, they demand a "release tax" — that fee is the scam.
Red flags to recognize
- Encouraged you to hide the investment from family or bank staff
- Bank flagged the payment as suspicious but the broker urged you to override
- Testimonials on their website use stock photos (reverse-image search reveals stolen identities)
- Cold-called or messaged you unexpectedly via WhatsApp, Telegram or Instagram
- Guaranteed returns above 15% monthly — no legitimate investment can promise this
Recovery timeline for this case type
Recovery from CoinSpeed follows a clear process. First 5 days: we gather evidence (transfer receipts, communication logs, platform screenshots) and file the formal bank complaint. Next 6-8 weeks: the bank investigates under PSD2 obligations set by Code monétaire L. 573-1. If the bank refuses, we escalate to Médiateur de l'AMF within 72 hours. Ombudsman decisions typically take 3-4 additional months. In parallel we coordinate criminal reporting.
Frequently asked questions
Can I recover funds from CoinSpeed if my bank already refused?
Yes — this is one of the most common scenarios we win. Under Code monétaire L. 573-1, your bank must justify a refusal in writing. We appeal the decision, submit evidence they missed, and escalate to Médiateur de l'AMF. Our team overturns 62% of first-round bank refusals.
How much does recovery cost with OnlineRefundee?
Nothing upfront. Our fee only becomes due when we secure a redress offer for you — typically a percentage of the amount recovered. Case assessment is free. No win, no fee. Full details in our fee structure page.
Is CoinSpeed the same as other scam brokers on your list?
Similar operational pattern, different corporate shells. Scam operators frequently rebrand — the same team behind CoinSpeed may operate other unregulated platforms under different names. We track cross-references between AMF-flagged brokers to strengthen your case.
