Scam Help · Share your story

Share your story

You're not alone, and it's not your fault. Tell us what happened in your own words, and your story will help us build better resources to protect other people.

Looking for help recovering from a scam instead? Get a recovery plan. It's a separate tool, at the bottom of this page.

Write it in your own words: how you were contacted, what you were asked to do, and roughly when it happened. There's no right or wrong way to tell it.

Please don't include passwords, full account or card numbers, or your Social Security number. We don't need them.

Stay anonymous, or hear from us

Anonymous is fine. Leave both boxes empty and we'll never know who you are. If you'd like more information from us, add your email address and we'll send it to you.

Submitting this form does not create a legal relationship with an attorney and is not a report to law enforcement. To report a scam, visit reportfraud.ftc.gov.

Need help recovering from a scam?

Sharing your story doesn't give you a recovery plan. For that, use our free recovery plan tool. You answer a few questions about what happened, and it builds a step-by-step plan with phone scripts and letters for your bank or card company. Your answers are saved anonymously and never linked to you.
