*Report Scams to the Federal Government

You can report scams to the federal government. Your report may keep others from experiencing a scam. Government agencies use reports of scams to track scam patterns. They may even take legal action against a company or industry based on the reports. However, agencies usually don’t follow up after you report, and can't recover lost money.

Do not use the agency contact information included in scam messages. Use contact information in the federal agency directory to report other government imposters.

Report Disaster and Emergency Scams

Report coronavirus scams and other scams about disasters and emergencies.

• Use the National Center for Disaster Fraud's web complaint form or call 866-720-5721.
• Find more information on identifying and reporting coronavirus scams.

Report Most Common Scams

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is the main agency that collects scam reports. Report your scam online with the FTC complaint assistant, or by phone at 1-877-382-4357 (9:00 AM - 8:00 PM, ET). The FTC accepts complaints about most scams, including these popular ones:

• Phone calls
• Emails
• Computer support scams

The FTC also collects reports of identity theft. Report identity theft online at IdentityTheft.gov or by phone at 1-877-438-4338 (9:00 AM - 8:00 PM, ET).

Report Online and International Scams

Report fake websites, emails, malware, and other internet scams to the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). Some online scams start outside the United States. If you have been affected by an international scam, report it through econsumer.gov. Your report helps international consumer protection offices spot trends and prevent scams.

Report IRS or Social Security Imposter Scams

Scammers often pretend to work for the Social Security Administration (SSA) or Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Common signs include:

• Robocalls
• Threats of arrest or lawsuits
• Demands for payments
• Suspension of your social security number
• Cancellation of your social security benefits

Report Social Security imposters online to SSA’s Inspector General. Call 1-800-269-0271 (10:00 AM - 4:00 PM, ET) to report by phone.

Report IRS imposters to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA). To report by phone, call TIGTA at 1-800-366-4484.
