Each transaction in the blockchain has a unique identifier known as a transaction hash. Make sure to include this hash for each transaction involved in the scam. It serves as proof of the transaction and aids in the investigation.

When reporting the crime, ensure that you provide all relevant details such as your wallet address. This digital address is where you store your cryptocurrency and is crucial for tracking the transaction history.

Along with your wallet address, you should also include the scammer's wallet address in your report. This will help law enforcement agencies trace the perpetrator and recover your stolen funds.
