Step-by-step help to report male scammers and female scammers safely.

Report Help

On HuntScammers, your real voice matters more than perfect wording. You simply describe what happened in your own words. Follow these steps to prepare your report, then use the dropdown at the top of the page to open the correct scam report form.

1. Step 1 – Make sure you are safe first
   Before you think about hunting scammers, protect yourself.
   • Stop sending money, documents, or photos immediately.
   • Block the scammer on the app, social media, or email.
   • Change passwords and contact your bank if you shared any financial or card details.
   If you feel in physical danger, contact your local authorities or emergency services before doing anything else.
2. Step 2 – Collect basic information
   Gather the details you remember. It’s okay if you don’t have everything.
   • The name or username the person used.
   • The phone number or email address they used to contact you.
   • Any website or company name they claimed to work for.
   • The profile link on a dating app or social media, if you still have it.
   These details help other victims quickly recognise the same male scammers or female scammers when they search on HuntScammers.
3. Step 3 – Save your evidence
   Evidence makes your report stronger – but never risk your safety to get it.
   • Take screenshots of chats, profiles, and payment requests.
   • Save transaction receipts or confirmation emails (hide full card or account numbers).
   • Keep everything in a clearly named folder on your phone or computer.
4. Step 4 – Think about what type of scam it is
   This helps huntscammers connect your report with similar cases.
   • Romance / dating: fast “love”, emotional stories, constant attention, then requests for money or gifts.
   • Investment / crypto: promises of guaranteed profit, screenshots of fake earnings, pressure to “top up” or deposit more.
   • Fake company / job: asking for fees, training charges, or copies of your ID and documents.
   • Blackmail / extortion: threats to share photos, videos, or personal information unless you pay.
   • Other: anything else that feels dishonest, manipulative, or “too good to be true”.
5. Step 5 – Write your story in simple words
   On the report page, you’ll see a big text box. You can follow this simple structure:
   • How you met: app, website, email, social media, phone, etc.
   • What they told you: their job, country, family, “emergency”, investment offer.
   • What they asked for: money, documents, photos, investment, login codes.
   • What you did: whether you sent anything, refused, or blocked them.
   • How you realised: what finally made you feel it was a scam.
   Don’t worry about grammar or spelling. On HuntScammers, honest stories from real people are what help the community keep hunting scammers.
6. Step 6 – Read our reporting rules
