How we get your funds back from Skyston Swap
- 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 Skyston Swap. 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 PSR CRM Code + PSD2 Reg 90. Your bank has 8 weeks to respond.
- We escalate to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) if your bank refuses. Our escalation team overturns 62% of bank refusals in cases like yours.
- We coordinate the criminal report with Action Fraud — this creates the paper trail that unlocks mandatory reimbursement and freezes the scammer's remaining assets.

Message us on WhatsAppHow this scam works
The pattern with Skyston Swap is textbook: unsolicited contact, promises of guaranteed returns, pressure to install remote-access software, and fake trading dashboards. Your bank may have already refused to reverse the transfer — that's not the end of your case. Under PSR CRM Code + PSD2 Reg 90, we can escalate.
Red flags to recognize
- Not listed in the FCA public register of authorised firms

- Website domain registered within the last 6 months (young domain = red flag)
- Uses "regulated by" claims from offshore jurisdictions (Vanuatu, St Vincent, Marshall Islands)
- Trading platform shows unrealistic profits that always go up (fake pricing engine)
