Non-crypto payment scam reports

Report a payment scam before the same recipient hurts someone else.

1. Submit the recipient

Add the country, payment method, masked recipient context, amount, date, evidence type, and a clear description of what happened.

2. We match privately

The system normalizes the payment identifier and stores a private hash, so repeated reports can be matched without exposing the full account publicly.

3. Public only after corroboration

Public warnings are reserved for multiple independent reports. The public result uses masked identifiers and factual report counts.

Why report small payment scams?

Many payment scams are too small for anyone to investigate alone. A fake seller may take a cake deposit, a repair fee, a marketplace payment, or a ticket transfer and disappear. One victim may look like a private dispute. Three, five, or ten independent reports tied to the same payment recipient become a pattern.

The payment safety database is built for that pattern. It does not need to publish a full phone number, email, bank account, or handle to be useful. A masked warning can help the next person pause before sending money, while keeping single unverified reports private.
