FAQ: How Do You Properly Report Scammers?
It is essential that law enforcement knows about scams & scammers, even though there is nothing (in most cases) that they can do.
Always report scams involving money lost or where you received money to:
- Local Police – ask them to take an “informational” police report – say you need it for your insurance
- U.S. State Police (if you live in the U.S.) – they will take the matter more seriously and provide you with more help than local police
- Your National Police or FBI « www.IC3.gov »
- The SCARS|CDN™ Cybercriminal Data Network – Worldwide Reporting Network on « www.Anyscam.com »
This helps your government understand the problem, and allows law enforcement to add scammers on watch lists worldwide.

I wiukld love to see some discussion about how scamming victims are still considered NOT to be victims. Society sees them as willing participants in the romance scam. We’re talking educated people here. Judges and lawyers, friends and family are lost. How can we fight this. My family got me a conservstorship because through lies and half truths on the petition they submitted to the court, the court agreed with them. Over the past 4 years that I’ve had a conservator I’ve spent $65,000 a year for upkeep and a professional conservator’s salary. I went from $450,000 to $190,000. Is the conservator doing s good job managing or is this just asnother scam.
If you simply read our site you will find everything you need to know to confirm that victims are in fact not responsible for these crimes or their participation in them. Anyone that blames victims is simply ignorance or a hater, Also visit http://www.ScamsNOW.com our new scams related magazine online.
