What should I do if I already sent money?

Stop all contact, screenshot every interaction, report to your bank/card issuer immediately, file with IC3 (US) or Action Fraud (UK) or your local cybercrime unit, and notify the receiving exchange to attempt a freeze. Avoid 'recovery experts' contacting you — they are themselves scammers.

How does GACS verify scams?

What we know

Auto-flagged by GACS social scanner (caution). Red flags: Outbound link to Telegram account '@Exy_BTC' for off-platform communication. Telegram is a common platform for scamming activities.; Post #4 advises to 'Sell everything you own and buy Bitcoin.' which is irresponsible financial advice often used in pump and dump schemes or to bait people into risky investments.; Post #5 requests 'What ticker will 10x my money 👀', which is commonly seen in content promoting speculative and high-risk investments, often associated with scams.. Yellow flags: Bio phrase 'cooking in the lab' is vague and could refer to anything, including illicit activities or development of high-risk, unregulated financial products.; The account has a high follower count (68,889) and is 'verified', which could be used to lend false legitimacy to the risky financial advice and off-platform redirection.; Posts #1, #4, and #5 focus on asking for or giving highly speculative financial advice ('god candle', '10x my money', 'sell everything and buy Bitcoin'), which indicates a focus on high-risk, potentially manipulative trading..

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.
