Vanguard Legal and Fundora Legal: recovery ads checked
Original ad reviewed below. Its claims are the advertiser’s, not our findings. Open the full ad image →

The image above is an original video preview from the Vanguard Legal ad, saved on 20 October 2026.

What are these ads offering?

Vanguard Legal speaks to people whose savings are stuck on an investment platform. Fundora Legal describes a familiar problem: a helpful account manager stops cooperating when you ask to withdraw money. Both offer a free review of your situation.

We followed both ads. They led to refcrpt.info/page/, a website called Recovery Online Justice. So you may see one name on Facebook and another when you leave your details.

The ads we checked were Vanguard Legal 3336815449844383 and Fundora Legal 2228838064513848. Meta showed them as active on 20 October 2026, with start dates of 13 and 14 October. This does not tell us how many people saw them.

Why are we concerned about the website?

Recovery Online Justice claims a 95% recovery success rate, but the page does not explain how it calculated that figure. Its testimonials discuss business training, not recovered money. The Privacy policy link opens terms under a different name, CryptoRefund.

These details leave a basic question unanswered: which business would handle your money and personal records? Our full review of Recovery Online Justice and refcrpt.info shows the pages and claims behind our concerns.

We suspect a possible recovery scam. We have not independently confirmed losses caused by this site or established an official warning naming it. The shared destination also does not prove that Vanguard Legal and Fundora Legal have the same owner. This review does not concern unrelated firms with similar names.

If you contacted them, what should you do?

You left your name or phone number: ask anyone who calls for their full business name, website and written fees. Save their messages. Do not send identity documents while you cannot verify who will receive them. Leaving contact details is not the same as paying for a service.

You paid someone after seeing one of these ads: contact the bank, card provider or payment service you used promptly. Explain who received the money and what they promised. Ask whether the payment can be stopped, recalled or disputed. Keep the receipt and messages. Available options depend on the payment and your country.

If you sent cryptocurrency, tell the exchange you used and save the transaction ID and receiving wallet address. A completed crypto transfer usually cannot be reversed. Do not send another payment just because someone says it will unlock a refund.

You shared a password or let someone control your device: end that access and secure the affected accounts from a trusted device. If banking details were exposed, tell your bank. Never share login codes or wallet recovery words with a caller.

Contacted the company and lost money?

You can request a free phone consultation with The Proofmark. Tell us which ad or website you used, what the person promised and whether you paid them. We will help you understand what to do next and what to ask your payment provider. We cannot guarantee that money will be returned.
