What we know

Auto-flagged by GACS social scanner (high_risk). Red flags: Post 1: "Drop any wallet address Thank me later!" - This is a common tactic for dusting attacks, sending unsolicited tokens, or preparing for a phishing attempt by knowing a target's wallet address. This could also be a misdirection for a fake giveaway where they ask for a 'small fee' to 'release' a large fictional prize.; Generic 'Crypto Beast' username and profile suggest a focus on general crypto rather than specific expertise, often used by scam accounts.; Post 3: "Pump is coming! Are you ready?" - Promotes speculative and often manipulated 'pump and dump' schemes, typical of illicit crypto activities.. Yellow flags: Handle uses high-risk crypto/trading keywords commonly seen in scam accounts; Profile description includes 'Memecoins & Market Alpha' which are high-risk investments, often associated with scams or highly volatile projects.; Posts like 'The market's been rough. Are you okay?' (Post 4) and 'Pump is coming!' (Post 3) suggest a pattern of engagement tactics rather than substantive content, often seen in accounts aiming to build trust or hype without genuine interaction or value..

How we treat phone numbers & other identifiers

Phone numbers, wallet addresses, domains, token symbols and social handles published on GACS scam pages are scam identifiers — the contact details a reported scammer used to reach victims. They are not treated as personal data about a private individual; they are the lookup keys that let the next person check "is this the number, wallet or site that contacted me?"

Victim-side information — reporter identity, IP, uploaded evidence and case notes — is stored in a separate, access-controlled system and is never published or exposed through the public lookup. Identifiers are used only to (1) warn searchers in real time, (2) power the free public checkers, and (3) feed the learned-rules engine that catches new scam variants.

If a number, wallet or domain that belongs to you appears here and you believe the listing is wrong, you can submit an appeal for this listing — a human reviews each one and the listing is not re-scanned while the appeal is open. See the full privacy policy and editorial policy for how data is collected, stored and removed.
