A scam report without a transaction is a rumor. A report with a network, address, and tx hash is something the next person can verify in an explorer in ten seconds. If you want to report a crypto scam wallet, optimize for that second person.
Collect this before you open the form
- The destination address you paid, not your own change address.
- The network you used. USDT on Tron is not Ethereum.
- The transaction hash. Explorers show it after broadcast.
- What happened in one paragraph: fake support, ransomware invoice, fraudulent OTC desk, and so on.
- Optional: a public evidence URL (forum post, takedown, explorer label). Skip private ID photos.
Pick a reason that matches the crime
Phishing is not the same as a marketplace that never shipped. Mixer abuse is not the same as a ransomware note. Accurate tags make TrustGhost’s risk score more honest and help later searches. If you are unsure, use “other” and explain.
What happens after you submit
The wallet page becomes searchable. Other users see report count and risk. On-chain verification, when a tx hash is present, can confirm the payment path. Public intel sources may also flag the same address. None of this reverses the transfer. It reduces the next victim’s odds.
You can still file local reports (exchange support, police cyber units) in parallel. Use the same tx hash everywhere. On TrustGhost, keep the write-up factual. Insults do not help a wallet abuse report. Details do.
