AnyScam.com has been moved to
The SCARS Institute Encyclopedia of Scams
Twelve Years of Data
For more than twelve years, scam victims and volunteers reported the phone numbers, email addresses, names, and profiles that scammers used against them on AnyScam.com. That work now lives here, as the SCARS Institute AnyScam Database, rebuilt to make it easier to search, safer to use, and open to new reports.
Before you trust someone you met online, search for their phone number, email address, name, or profile link. You’ll see whether it has been reported to SCARS Institute, how often, and when. You can also read real messages that scammers have sent, with victims’ details removed, so you can learn to recognize their words before they reach you.
Help Protect Others
If a scammer contacted you, report their profile link, email address, or phone number. SCARS Institute staff review every report before it appears in the database.
Please keep in mind that a listing is a report, not proof. Scammers steal real people’s names and photos, and phone numbers pass from one owner to the next, so an innocent person can appear here. If something listed here belongs to you and is listed in error, use the removal request form at the bottom of this page, and we’ll review it. And if nothing turns up in your search, that doesn’t mean someone is safe: scammers change their numbers, addresses, and names constantly.

Hello
I watched Henry Garcia's video on your channel. Now, this fraudulent organization cooperated with some Turks and opened a fake Instagram account in Henry's name. By the name of Garcia Vincent. They tried to defraud me too, but I realized early on that by pretending to believe them, I reached all the bank account information in Turkey. I want to share this information with Henry Garcia. In order to get in touch, I would like to ask you to help me forward my information to him, and I wish you a good work.

She claimed to suddenly get Denge Fever but was too broke to get medical treatment- she needed 350 peso to get medical help at a clinic.
Medical treatment is free to Filipino ppl !
I sent her only $30 to get her the medicine & transportation to a clinic in Manila
Once she got the alleged medical treatment she played out the “fever” for a week.
-I’m summarizing this-
Then she said she dropped her cellphone in water and needed a new one to continue to communicate ( coincidentally) of coarse.
I realized immediately this chick was new to this “ medical help scam” as she was too quick to have more problems & left a lot of holes in her “ stories for a really sick possibly dying girl of age 26 !
