ScammersCheck
Help protect others

Report a Scam

Seen a suspicious phone number, website, or message? Report it here. Every report helps protect others and improves our detection — especially for brand-new scams that databases haven't indexed yet.

What did you receive?

Paste the phone number, URL, email address, or the full suspicious message text.

What type of scam is this?

Select the closest category — this helps us improve detection for that scam type.

This will run a full scam check and record your report. Your IP is hashed for rate-limiting only — we do not store personal data.

Why reporting matters

Most scam databases are reactive — they only list scams that have already been widely reported. Your report helps us catch scams in the first 24–72 hours, before the databases catch up.

⚡
First-mover detection
Brand-new scam domains are invisible to most tools for 48–72 hours. Community reports combined with our AI analysis can flag them within minutes.
🔗
Shareable result links
Checks are private by default. After a result, you can choose a sanitised share link that shows a redacted label and limited summary—not the original message, screenshot, full identifier, or detailed evidence. The link is noindex by default and expires with the result record.
📊
Improves future detection
Reports feed directly into our scoring algorithm. Two or more confirmed reports on the same entity boost its risk score and can upgrade the verdict.
🌍
Shared with the community
Confirmed scams appear on our Reported Scammers page and Trends dashboard, giving everyone a real-time picture of active threats.
