Ranked by reported loss

Largest reported exposure

Figures are the sum of losses stated by reporting parties. Treat them as a floor, not a total — most fraud is never reported anywhere.

Fraud typologies

How these operations work

The cover story changes constantly; the mechanics do not. Each typology sets out the sequence and the checks that break it.

Verify before you pay

A ten-minute checklist that catches most fraudulent sites and sellers: registration dates, entity records, reverse image checks, and payment method.

Open the checklist

You already paid

What to do in the first hours, which payment routes can still be recalled, where to report by country, and why every recovery agent who contacts you is a second scam.

Recovery steps

Submit a domain, wallet, or handle with your evidence. Reports are reviewed against objective indicators before anything is published.
