Pre-approved quotes
Cleared for direct quotation in articles, video, and broadcast. For a tailored quote or a named spokesperson, email press@gacs.app.
"If anyone messages you claiming they can recover your stolen crypto for a fee, that is the second scam. The first one already happened. Hang up, block, and never pay an up-front recovery fee."
GACS editorial position — free for use in articles with attribution to Global Anti-Crime & Safety (gacs.app).
"We are seeing AI-cloned voices and faces of well-known finance personalities deployed within hours of any market-moving headline. The cost dropped so far, so fast, that the only durable defence is verifying through an official channel the celebrity actually controls."
GACS editorial position — free for use in articles with attribution to Global Anti-Crime & Safety (gacs.app).
"Every scam page on GACS is public, indexable, and free to read. We believe fraud data belongs to the people the fraud is aimed at — not behind a paywall, not gated by signup."

Long (≈110 words)
GACS is a free, advisory-only public-protection registry built to help ordinary people, journalists, and investigators identify crypto fraud before it costs them. The platform combines a human-verified scam database, AI-assisted wallet and website checkers, a social-account impersonation scanner, and live scam alerts with a free Intelligence Certifications that issues recognised diplomas (CFPS, CBI, OIA, SCS, MICA, CAIL-SIS). GACS takes no payments from users or platforms, runs no recovery service, and publishes its methodology, AI policy, and data sources openly. The project is funded by donations and operated by a global volunteer community of fraud analysts, OSINT researchers, and former victims.

GACS — Press one-pager (PDF)
What GACS is · 3 pitch angles · quick facts · approved boilerplate.
Angle 1
Alberta-built, used in 40+ countries
An independent Alberta developer is quietly running one of the largest free anti-scam registries on the internet, used by victims and investigators in 40+ countries. No VC, no ads, donation-funded.
Angle 2
The AI-impersonator wave nobody is reporting on
Voice-clone cost dropped from $1,000+ (2023) to under $0.01 (2026). GACS catches AI-cloned profiles across TikTok, X, Instagram, and YouTube in real time and publishes the patterns.
Angle 3
free and ad-free — counter to the recovery-scam industry
Every 'recovery' service charges victims twice. GACS publishes its methodology, AI policy, and data sources openly, and explicitly warns against recovery upsells.
