How to Report a Scam: Organize Your Timeline
A timeline is what relevant institutions and investigators need — but it has to be supported by exhibits, not just dates in a note.
A timeline plus an evidence index turns a complicated story into something a reviewer can follow quickly.
Reviewers process hundreds of cases. A clear, structured timeline with indexed evidence stands out and gets assessed faster. Our reports transform scattered evidence into proof-mapped timelines with exhibit references that tell the story efficiently.
Why timelines win
- Reviewers process cases faster with timelines
- Evidence index provides navigation
- Facts + artifacts = verifiable story
- Structured submissions get priority attention
Use a simple template
- Date/Time, Platform, Action, Amount/Method
- Evidence File reference for each entry
- Keep it factual and reference artifacts
- Label uncertain items as unverified
Link claims to artifacts
- Reference screenshots for every promise or requirement
- Tie payments to the instruction that caused them
- Label unverified items clearly
- Create a numbered exhibit list
Common mistakes to avoid
- Long narratives without artifacts
- Missing URLs and platform details
- Mixing assumptions with confirmed facts
- Submitting evidence without an index

I'd already given up after my bank's first rejection. Their detailed report highlighted points I never would have spotted. The tone was professional but firmly on my side throughout.
Daniel R.

I was embarrassed to admit how much money I'd lost. They treated me with respect and focused on the facts. The final report gave my case a structure it never had before.
Emily W.
August 2024
I didn't know how to explain months of messages and transfers. They turned everything into a clear, step‑by‑step timeline. The investigator told me it was one of the clearest cases they'd seen.
