The Prominent Hold Global recovery process — what we do for you
- 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 Prominent Hold Global. 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 Wft Art. 2:96. Your bank has 8 weeks to respond.
- We escalate to the Kifid (Klachteninstituut Financiële Dienstverlening) if your bank refuses. Our escalation team overturns 62% of bank refusals in cases like yours.
- We coordinate the criminal report with Politie Landelijke Eenheid — this creates the paper trail that unlocks mandatory reimbursement and freezes the scammer's remaining assets.

Message us on WhatsAppHow this scam works
Prominent Hold Global was added to AFM's watchlist because it is not authorised to provide investment services in Netherlands. Unregulated brokers use offshore payment processors and shell companies to move victim funds fast — but PSD2 rules and Kifid (Klachteninstituut Financiële Dienstverlening) give you real recovery routes.
Red flags to recognize
- 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
- Pressured you to install remote-access software (AnyDesk, TeamViewer) to "help with trading"
Recovery timeline for this case type
Time-to-recovery for Prominent Hold Global victims varies by the payment method used and bank cooperation. Card payments and SEPA transfers under Wft Art. 2:96 have a mandatory 8-week response window. Crypto transfers require blockchain forensics — add 2-3 weeks. Cash-app style transfers depend on the platform. Escalation to Kifid (Klachteninstituut Financiële Dienstverlening) adds 90-120 days on average. Our team drives the process forward at every stage.
Frequently asked questions
Can I still recover from Prominent Hold Global if the loss was more than a year ago?
Yes, in many cases. PSD2 rules and consumer protection law under Wft Art. 2:96 do not have a strict recovery deadline — the older the case, the more evidence work needed. We take cases from 3 months to 3 years old regularly.
What if I sent Prominent Hold Global crypto instead of a bank transfer?
Crypto recovery is harder but not impossible. We use blockchain forensics (Chainalysis, TRM Labs) to trace funds to regulated exchanges, then submit legal freeze requests. 30% of cases end up at a regulated exchange where recovery is possible.
Can I recover funds from Prominent Hold Global if my bank already refused?
Yes — this is one of the most common scenarios we win. Under Wft Art. 2:96, your bank must justify a refusal in writing. We appeal the decision, submit evidence they missed, and escalate to Kifid (Klachteninstituut Financiële Dienstverlening). Our team overturns 62% of first-round bank refusals.
