Use these quick links and options whenever you are hunting scammers on HuntScammers. Before trusting possible male scammers or female scammers, search their phones, emails, websites and profiles first.
HuntScammers offers simple and advanced search tools so you can quickly see whether details used by male scammers or female scammers have already been reported. You do not need to be technical – just decide which search option fits what you have in front of you.
Copy the phone, email, username, profile link or website that makes you suspicious.
Use Quick Search for one detail or Filter Scammers to see wider patterns.
Compare the results with your situation and decide whether to stop, continue checking, or report.
Quick Search is your first stop when you have a specific detail and want to know,
fast, if anyone has already reported it on HuntScammers.
The tool is available on the page usually named Check Scammers
(address like /check-scammers).
Tip: if the person uses several phones or emails, run a separate Quick Search for each one. Many male scammers and female scammers reuse some but not all of their details.
Use the advanced filter when you want to see a whole group of scammers that match a pattern – for example all romance scammers from a certain country or all investment scams from a specific year. This option lives on the page usually called Filter Scammers.
Tip: Write down phrases, excuses and payment methods you see in multiple reports. If your scammer uses the same style, that is a very strong warning sign.
The “All Scams” page is a running list of scammer profiles and reports on
HuntScammers. The address usually looks like
/scams. This page is useful when you want a wider view of what is
happening on the site.
Tip: combine what you learn here with Quick Search and the advanced filter to build a complete picture before you decide whether to continue or cut off contact.
Search tells you whether something is already reported on HuntScammers. Background and document guides show you what else you can safely check using public information when you suspect male scammers or female scammers.
Look for pages with titles like:
These explain which basic, legal checks you can do depending on the country.
Other helpful guide pages usually include:
These guides support your searches so you can see the bigger pattern, not only one detail.
Example: you run Quick Search on a phone number and see no result yet. The person claims to be from a specific country and sends a “business contract”. Use the background check guide for that country plus the document verification guide to check the company and the contract before you believe anything or send money.
No. A blank result simply means nobody has reported that phone, email, website or company yet. Treat “no result” as neutral, not as a guarantee. Keep using background checks, document checks and your own instincts before you trust.
If a report matches the same phone, email, website, company or story style, treat it as a strong warning. Stop sending money or information immediately. You can later add your own report so that other people searching the same details can see more evidence and updated information.
When search helps you realise something is suspicious, go back to the report pages listed at the top of this guide. Use the full scammer profile form if you want to describe the whole story, or use the specific forms for phone, email, company or website if you mainly want to warn about one detail. The next time someone searches the same item, your warning will appear.
Search is one part of staying safe on HuntScammers. Combine it with background checks, document verification and your own comfort level. If something feels wrong, you are always allowed to stop the conversation and walk away.
