How to use the scam index

Most scam losses don't happen because someone ignored a warning — they happen because the victim had never seen the pattern before. The index is built for two moments: before you commit (a click, a transfer, a sign-up), search the wallet address, the domain, the broker name or the token symbol; if it's flagged, walk away. After something feels off, read two or three entries in the relevant category to spot the same playbook before more money moves.

Every entry is dated, sourced and linkable. Share an entry directly with the people closest to the risk — a parent considering an investment "platform," a friend mid-romance with someone they've never met, a Discord server about to ape into a memecoin. A link to a single concrete report changes minds in a way that abstract "be careful online" advice never does.

Found something missing or incorrect? Open the entry and submit feedback, or file a new report. Every confirmed report sharpens the detection rules that catch the next variant.

Frequently asked questions

What is the GACS scam index?

A free, searchable public database of confirmed scams — wallets, phishing sites, fake brokers, rogue tokens, romance and recovery fraud — sourced from community reports, partner threat feeds and verified investigations. Every entry links to a dedicated intel page anyone can share.

How often is the index updated?

Continuously. New entries appear within minutes of moderator or automated confirmation; the trending and 'last seen' fields refresh in real time. The list you're looking at right now reflects the latest state of the database.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

Free, no signup, no paywall. The index, every individual scam page, the website checker, the wallet checker and the phone/email scanner are all open to anyone — that's the point.

How do I check if a specific wallet, website, phone or token is listed?

Use the search box above (matches across slugs, domains and wallet fragments) or jump to the dedicated checkers: website checker for URLs, wallet checker for crypto addresses, the safe scanner for phone numbers and handles. If it's flagged, you'll get the full evidence trail.

Where does the data come from?

Three sources: (1) victim and researcher reports submitted through the public report form, (2) automated detectors that monitor on-chain drainer wallets, look-alike domains and broker-license fraud, (3) partner threat feeds. Entries are confirmed by a moderator or the learned-rules engine before publication.

How are scams categorized?

By scam type (fake broker, wallet drainer, phishing site, romance, recovery, memecoin rug, etc.) and by country of impact. Use the category and country chips above to drill into a specific surface and read the playbook for that scam family.

What should I do if I've been scammed?

First: stop sending money or signing transactions. Second: file a report here so the entry enters the index and warns the next person. Third: report to your local cybercrime unit and (for crypto) the exchange that received funds. Our recovery guides on the scam-type hubs walk through realistic options — and warn about recovery-fraud, which preys on recent victims.

Can I report a scam that's not in the index?

Yes — that's the most valuable thing you can do. The report form takes under a minute, accepts evidence screenshots, and pushes the entry into moderation. Confirmed reports power both this index and the detection rules that catch the next variant.
