What do CEX suggest to do if cryptocurrency was stolen

If you have been the victim of a theft and your stolen funds have been transferred to Binance, you need to open a ticket (request) to our support team (binance.com) by providing the following information:

• A detailed description of how and when the break-in/theft occurred.
• Detailed (clickable) links on the blockchain of all transactions involved in the process.
• A signed NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement) or statement where you agree to abide by Binance's non disclosure standards.

If you have strong evidence that the funds were indeed stolen, Binance will temporarily freeze the assets. During this process, you will need to provide us with a police report within 24 hours after submitting a ticket (application) to the support service. From now on, Binance will work directly with law enforcement officials to manage the stolen funds and resolve your case.

Note: Victim of criminals or whistleblower who reported the theft must pass KYC ID verification on Gate.io. All information provided by the victim or whistleblower must be legal and reliable. Gate.io does not welcome fictional stories and scams.

1. If it is confirmed that currencies stolen by hackers from wallets or other exchanges were transferred to Gate.io, the victim or whistleblower must provide screenshots of the transfer record, transaction ID, transfer address, all related links to transactions on the blockchain and a detailed description of the case.
2. If you want to report that someone transferred illegally obtained currencies to Gate.io, you need to provide detailed evidence, including screenshots of the transfer record, currency types, transfer amount, transaction ID, and case description.
3. If it is suspected that offline trading fraudulent money has gone to Gate.io, the victim or whistleblower must provide all records of the transfer and a detailed description of the case.

In cases where the victim or whistleblower is able to provide all of the information listed above, once Gate.io confirms that the suspicion is valid, Gate.io will freeze the suspect's account. We recommend that, within 24 hours of reporting to Gate.io, victims of criminals and whistleblowers also report it to the police. Victims and whistleblowers should provide documents from the Gate.io police as early as possible so that Gate.io works directly with the judicial department and cooperates with law enforcement. Otherwise, the suspected party can request Gate.io to de jure unfreeze its assets.

Additionally, if law enforcement requires Gate.io to assist in an investigation, please send an email to support@mail.gate.io with this information. The email must contain the identity of the law enforcement officer, police case files, instructions on how Gate.io should assist them.

When working with authorities, Gate.io will respect local laws and actively assist employees. Once the case is confirmed as an actual crime and the suspect's account is frozen by court order, the victim or whistleblower must provide the necessary materials to Gate.io and law enforcement to help recover the stolen assets.
