Anti-Scammer Alert

Help To Stop Scammers, Help For Victims

Helping people take charge of their lives

What Can We Do?

At this point, all that we can do is to warn our friends, neighbors, and others who see your posts and letters in our social media. Please share this website wherever you can.

If you yourself or friends or relatives have been scammed, there are some good victim support groups on Facebook. Such groups, if they are to be effective, need to do extensive screening of new members and privacy protection to prevent scammers from joining. If you are considering joining such a group, please make sure that they have such screening in place, in their public description. Please see the article called Steps To Recovery in this website for details.

Scamming has quickly become a national crisis. Wholesale theft of historic proportions has already occurred. Only rapid action by our government and the media companies will stop a potential financial ruin of major financial institutions and many millions of people. At this time, however, only individual action can help. Anyone reading this article - please set a freeze for your SSN for all three of the credit reporting agencies, Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian. Do not respond to any messages from anyone you don't know personally.

Do solid research on any financial investment. Make sure that it is a well-known financial institution in a country with stable currency. Any valid investment will have a online presence and many reviews; just use Google to find out if it is well known and reliable. Discuss it with a local financial advisor in your bank. Avoid investments involving cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin - they are based on thin air or the underground economy. Avoid second-hand operations, that is, involving personal intermediaries. Avoid - or at least do solid research on - online "side hustles" as they are usually hustling you for money.

If you have an online relationship with someone you met online, please obtain solid information about them before you continue that relationship: look them up in the people search engines like usphonebook.com for the US. Protect your Facebook friends by making your friend list private.

If you need more help than the information provided on this website, our anti-scammer team can provide it at low cost. Please see our anti-scammer services website, at https://www.anti-scammer.net.
