Thank you for sharing this link where to report a Ponzi scheme.

Has anyone reported the FORSAGE scheme company? They are the Ponzi scheme company that making noise here in my country recently using the Ethereum but now the Philippines SEC was taken action regarding this Ponzi scheme group and the two other groups.

Here is the announcement and warned by the SEC, 2020PressRelease_SEC-warns-against-Forsage-other-schemes.pdf. and the list of Ponzi scheme list and might good if anyone also reports their website.

Lately the scams are getting really sophisticated if you notice lately lots of phishing app are showing up on google play.

Yes, even playstore got lured and apps popping up to trick users, it's really annoying especially if you are the one who got victimized.

Recently my friend fell victim of atomic wallet's phishing app on playstore. A scam reporting site would be really helpful

Any help that can be provided to avoid and to bring noticed to the people especially those newcomers, preventing them to get easily
attached and allow those who already become a victim to report those sites.

I would love to know what is the action taken when this suspicious projects are reported to this site, do they hold the project owners accountable for any misconduct in the project or they just give the usual warning!
It would have been more satisfying to know the people behind such scam project are being apprehended if possible, this will then reduce the number of scam project we have. Nevertheless, thanks for sharing.

Im not aware of this website but there are already several sites or even threads that do list out scams here on this market but i were to say that this would really be a handful job if we do base
up on the current rate of scams that do exist on this market as of this moment.Also not all newbies will really be that mindful on searching up things when they do invest
thats why these kind of lists are somewhat useless imho since most newbies do only learn to make search when they already experience on losing up money
due to scams.

Which is why we really cannot afford to trust other centralized authorities. Even whitelists are now not so good and can be inflitrated,,, while blacklists are ineffective (I sometimes still get metamask warnings on trusted sites for example). Every man for himself in crypto!

   Nice site, it's good for all of us to have more similar sites where we can learn about scams and how they operate, it will help
us to recognize traps and to not become victims of scammers!
    As I could notice phishing scams dominate on this site, and most of them are about MyEtherWallet. As we can see when we
open that wallet it warns us to check domain and to not write our passwords everywhere, we could get scammed and stay
without coins from wallet.

CryptoScamDB LLC, powered by MyCrypto, Inc., is dedicated to creating a safer cryptospace by educating the public on best security practices, uncovering malicious actors, and exposing scams, as well as providing scam detection services that can be integrated into existing products.

The quote above is what they intend to do according to their mission statement, as much as this may sounds assuring it still lacking in the actual sense of what is happening, there are still large number of scam project around, and I wonder how many crypto lovers will have access to their website or wherever they intend to educate people before falling into victim of scam,
I do appreciate their efforts though, I think the fight is big and will require a combine effort of many such platforms, the crypto community as well to expose all the scam projects and educate the people about them.

Good one for sharing the site. But I wish that there could be several ways by which fraudulent/ponzi crypto schemes can be reported and blacklisted. And for those who have successfully scammed people, if there could be a way to completely freeze such funds and make it nin-cashable, it will help to disincentivize crypto scams. We need to sanitize this space and allow quality projects to thrive.

For this problem, I think someone need to reach its official website first before try to download a wallet, it is not just in google play or in another place. The google play/playstore is not 100% secure, the scammer just need a little money to put their clone wallet in it to trape the victim. As for the website to report a crypto scam indeed it is very helpfull, but I doubt everyone will know it. Also, I haven't checked this site roundly, I can't check it in my smartphone.
