    Have you ever thought of recovering your bitcoin from bogus trading platforms? Perhaps recover the bitcoin vou sent to a scammer? I bet you are not alone. I’ve been on the quest and search for a way to recover my $50,000 from a bitcoin investment trading platform, after the highs and lows during the course of way out, I was fortunate to read a recommendation about the Bestcoinfixer as the best and genuine experts, who would help me in getting the funds back to my CoinBase wallet. I did send a mail to them on ( Bestcoinfixer @gmailcom), I must say it was an amazing feeling, although I had to sacrifice my 10% to them fo the service well done. I have decided to share this information, not exaggerating nor over praising the team, but I give people their flowers when they deserve, and to help others like me who might need help in getting their funds back from such companies.
