If you mean crypto scammers, then there isn't any organization that offers such services, mind you that cryptocurrencies are decentralized, the more reason why it's not possible for such an organization to function, it's your responsibility to protect your funds, though it's possible to track down addresses and link them to exchanges if they have ever withdrawn from an exchange, but scammers also use mixers and coinjoin to make them impossible to trace, the bottom line of it all is learn all the protection precautions and protocols, then be your own bank and protect yourself.

Having said that, why do you want to know if there's such service, if by any chance you have lost funds and looking for someway to retrieve it, you'll prolly get scammed again, stay away from anyone or user will will advertise to you any sort of crypto recovery or a way to track down scammers who stole from you, treat such people as scammers as well.

It is very easy to fight scam and frauds but it is complicating to do so with the type of humans around; as long as we have greedy people, or indiviuals who place emotions first over intellect then there are going to be more scam victims. The easiest way to fight fraud is to avoid greed, do your own research and be honest with yourself. stop find 300% roi in few days etc

Ehm, a law enforcement agency?! We like to call them "P O L I C E" (don't ask me why).
I'm pretty sure there's something like that where you live, too.

I agree but there is many projects and websites that look really cool...som of them have also a great new idea and their team isnt anonymos but in the end they will "take the money and run"

I dont talk about the stupid 300% roi in 2 soconds and i think no one can get scammed by those types of people

You only see volunteers do that. On the Scam Accusations(https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0) you can see projects that are posted there and tracked and tagged as a scam with valid source and proof. It's just a free community from the forum who does that
But isn't it that SEC is the one that also sneaks into something like this? and also unregistered projects/icos.

It's very difficult to track the scammers, the only way to track the scammers through make a complaint to the centralized exchange site but the exchange site will not also give a response to the little shrimp.
You can't do that alone and even when you are using the police and it doesn't mean you can trace the scammers.
This is the difficult part of the crypto. So many members here already fight the scam project and bunch of scam projects already traced.

Cryptocurrencies scams are now popular and there are too many ways to trick people and fool them by asking for money through cryptocurrency, but if that related to a scam project probably you can hunt down the owner.

If you have been experienced fraud or other bad business, you can report it here, Federal Trade Commission they had connected different law enforcers.

And regarding Bitcoin scam or any transaction that used blockchain, you can also use this, Chainalysis.

[Wulan_maniez]

To track scammers is easy if we do analysis and in this forum there is also a section to report scammers. But to stop the scam itself is very difficult.
Because scammers will do everything possible to satisfy their greed and earn money easily from crypto. As long as crypto  still exists in this  world,
then scammers will continue to exist. Here we as a crypto community should be careful and please report if you find a fraudster in the crypto space,
to prevent many victims of scammers.

sec only for the American region, on the basis of this institution exists to protect its citizens. That's why every new project that wants to sell coins, prohibits Americans or those with an American passport from participating. but crypto doesn't only exist in one country. So as long as they are not American, they are still free to commit fraud and the SEC does not have the authority to sue them.

I think there should be an organization that audits every project. and this organization was created by the owners of the dapps platform such as ethereum, BNB, EOS, and other Dapps platforms. so each Platform has an audit team to see if the project is feasible or not using their network. and this team must be open to any suggestions and complaints.

Yep, Chainalysis has several clients, one of which is the U.S. government. For better or for worse, for good or bad, they are out there connecting the dots on behalf of exchanges like Binance in terms of helping them track down where hacked funds are moving, giving other exchanges a heads up that hacked funds are coming their way.

Here on the forum, we have a good intern scambuster program going where we are all interns and no one gets paid. But we do get rewarded in the form of extra digital doodads for our accounts, as an incentive to continue busting scams.

This is the downside of Cryptocurrency, it is the best place to do scams. Someone can easily take advantage of anyone by using digital platforms. Since cryptos are mostly a decentralised system, no one can control the scammers. The only way to lessen the losses and scam events, people should be educated on how to avoid and discern different schemes scammers ate doing. Until people doesn't have enough knowledge on this schemes they will continue to be a victim.

It's not very hard to scam people because many people are still stupid out there, newbies don't have time to ask people that are already in to crypto the right path to take, they take risks themselves and only tend to learn when they lose, even old scamming trick of 2017 still works on many crypto newbies today, unfortunately there is no way to put an end to this

[Greatdev]

The most safest place for newbies to be is top exchanges, investing in altcoins from top exchanges like binance and Okex are the best thing to do, if the projects are bad or can't be trusted binance exchange won't accept them on its platfrom

Since 2017 we have found scam alternatives and negative adaptations for this modality and in some ways this has affected the ICO market and is affecting the DeFi market. The main strategy is that the initial idea is to create a project, raise funds and launch in a famous exchange and normally for some reason the development is disrupted and the developers abandon the project with a dreamy community. However, the creativity for this type of situation is great and we must be aware.

This situation became irritating.

[Dr.Osh]

if there is such a thing, I think it has been established a long time ago, and is being run to help thwart scammers. however, for now, we can only report odd things to the scam thread, and these should be further identified. I just wish there was a way to find out if a project could be a scam, it's just that even a popular project can become a scam when the CEO gets greedy.

Even if everyone on here know their ways around scam projects and how to avoid them what about newbies? They are scammers favourite I think, they can easily be fooled, they have less knowledge about doing research on new projects, tell me how do we safe such people from falling into scammers traps?

[DrBeer]

In terms of technology - NO! One of the key "features", it is also a drawback - the decentralized system does not have centralized control, which makes it impossible to influence the flow of information and "fix" illegal transactions. Therefore, any initiatives to combat fraud come down to regulating the work of exchanges that adhere to the legislative framework. Only at the level of exchanges can accounts be blocked, not allowed to withdraw copied funds.

[Hypnosis00]

Of course, we have.
You can report it in HERE where the forum police will hunt them down and stop their evil intention to the forum.

But, we don't just rely on them totally. We can make it our own if we are too keen on analyzing the project. Obviously, they got to offer huge and quick returns, it certainly mind-changing and it looks very catchy. if gonna see these things, it gives you time to did deeper and do the search to know if they are legit or not.

Not that when ICOEthics still was around he prove that he can track them down especially those scam ICOs way back there. You can browse his topics history. I don't know what happen to him/her but I've never seen any profiles that bust that much ICOs here in this forum.
