Florida’s Cyber Fraud Enforcement Unit (CFEU) recovered $3.3 million in Q1 2026, 45 % of its total $7.2 million since inception 2.5 years ago. $700,000 was returned to Florida victims and $1.3 million to Massachusetts victims. Ongoing litigation holds another $12.6 million of frozen crypto assets.

Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell reported hundreds of crypto complaints, deactivated 60+ scam sites and filed 30+ lawsuits. State efforts have reclaimed more than $6 million for victims. Education campaigns are underway to help consumers spot red flags early.
