Report a Scam

Last updated September 4, 2026

Telling us what happened helps us warn other readers. We publish patterns, not personal details.

  1. Stop sending money immediately, including any “release fee” needed to recover what you already paid.
  2. Contact your bank or payment provider and ask about reversing the transaction. Speed matters.
  3. Keep every message, receipt, username and screenshot.
  4. Report it to your country’s cybercrime or consumer-protection authority. → What to do in the first 24 hours lists the channels.

Share what happened so we can warn other readers. Do not include passwords, card numbers or ID documents. If you have lost money, also report it to your bank and your national cybercrime or consumer-protection authority.

We only store what you send us here, and we never publish it or sell it.

Do not send passwords, full card numbers, or images of identity documents. We never publish your name, email or personal details, and we never contact a company on your behalf or attempt recovery — no legitimate organisation charges a fee to recover scammed money, and anyone offering to is running a second scam.
