Common Crypto Scam Red Flags
Red flags help, but reviewers need the proof trail: the fee request, the platform screen, the instruction, and the transaction reference with dates.
Document each red flag with dated evidence, not just observations.
Crypto scam patterns repeat across platforms: withdrawal fees, fake exchanges, and pressure tactics. Our reports structure these patterns into evidence-backed timelines that reviewers can validate, turning scattered red flags into documented proof of misrepresentation.
