Indicators observed

  • Bio links to 2 domains already on the GACS blacklist (reddit.com, youtube.com)
  • Learned pattern match: "reddit.com" (seen in 40 prior scams, scan accuracy 100/100)
  • Learned pattern match: "trailing_4plus_digits" (seen in 22 prior scams, scan accuracy 100/100)
Weaker signals
  • Handle ends in 4+ digits — pattern dominant in cloned/throwaway profiles
  • Verify any 'investment' claim through an independent source — short-form video is easy to fake
  • Instagram hides this profile's posts behind a login wall — content couldn't be analyzed. Open the profile yourself and watch for: investment promises, "guaranteed" returns, DM-for-signals, recovery scam offers, or off-platform Telegram/WhatsApp redirects.. Scan of Instagram profile @brooklyn_6768. Top red flag: Bio links to 2 domains already on the GACS blacklist (reddit.com, youtube.com)

Pattern: Recovery / refund fraud

The account targets people who have already been defrauded, promising to trace and claw back stolen crypto for an upfront fee or a "gas" payment. It is a second pass over the same victim list — often run by the original crew — and no funds are ever returned.

How to recognise it
  • Approaches you unsolicited after you post about a loss
  • Charges a fee, a retainer, or a "blockchain gas" payment before any work
  • Shows dashboard screenshots of "recovered" balances that cannot be verified
  • Real recovery only happens through law enforcement or the exchange

Sources and method

  • GACS social scanner

    Our scanner reads the public profile and recent posts, scores the behavioural signals, and re-checks the account on a schedule so a listing reflects current behaviour, not a single moment.

  • Primary observation

    The page or profile this listing was created from.

  • 2 community reports

    Independent submissions from people who ran into this. Reports are matched on the identifier, not the name, so renaming does not reset the count.

Checked against our live signals at listing time and re-checked whenever the identifier appears in a new report or feed update. If you believe this listing is wrong, you can appeal it and we will re-check the evidence.
