Report a Scam

If you were scammed, or someone tried to scam you, reporting it helps the next person avoid the same outcome. Verified reports are factored directly into the trust score of the identity involved.

What to Include in Your Report

• Any identifying details you have: username, email, phone number, payment handle, or listing link.
• The platform or channel where contact happened.
• A clear description of what happened, including dates if you remember them.
• Screenshots or receipts, if you have them — these help our review team verify the report faster.
• Whether any money, goods, or personal information changed hands.

What Happens After You Submit a Report

1. Review. Our team checks the details you provided against existing records.
2. Verification. Where possible, we corroborate the report with other evidence before it affects anyone's score.
3. Publication. Verified reports appear in scam reports and are factored into the relevant trust score, as explained in how it works.

We don't publish your personal contact information as part of a report — see the report form for exactly what's shared publicly.

Other Ways to Get Help

Reporting to TrustScoreChecker helps warn the community, but it isn't a substitute for reporting to your bank, payment provider, or local authorities if you've lost money. Our scam prevention guide also covers what to do immediately after a scam, including how to limit further damage.
