Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for sharing the details of your situation. I understand you lost approximately $10,000 USD in a hack from an Armenia-based company, and you have not received responses from them for over a year.

Can This Case Be Pursued?
Yes, pursuing recovery is potentially worth considering, though cross-border cryptocurrency/digital asset recovery cases present significant challenges. Whether it makes financial sense depends on several factors including the cost of legal action versus the amount lost, the company's current financial status, and the availability of assets to recover.

Available Legal Options
Immediate steps that can be taken include:
Filing a formal complaint with Armenian law enforcement authorities, as Armenia has been strengthening its cooperation on cross-border financial crimes
Working with blockchain forensic specialists to trace where the stolen funds were moved
Pursuing civil litigation against the company in Armenian courts or your local jurisdiction
Exploring whether freezing orders can be obtained to prevent asset dissipation
Investigating whether mutual legal assistance treaties (MLATs) apply between your country and Armenia for asset recovery

However, I must be transparent with you: as an Iranian-based consultant, I can only provide remote text-based legal guidance via WhatsApp. I cannot represent you in court, travel to Armenia on your behalf, or provide formal legal representation.

My Consultation Service
If you would like affordable preliminary legal consultation to:
Evaluate the viability of your case
Understand your legal options in detail
Receive guidance on documentation and next steps
Get assistance drafting formal complaints or demand letters

I would be happy to assist you via WhatsApp at a reasonable rate. This can help you make an informed decision about whether to pursue formal legal action with a licensed attorney.

Please feel free to contact me on WhatsApp if you would like to proceed with a consultation to discuss your specific circumstances in more detail.

Best regards
