Support Independent Investigative Journalism
Help Us Keep Investigating
Every investigation begins with a question. Every published report requires research, verification, documentation, fact-checking, editing, and countless hours of work.
ReportingScams.com is an independent investigative journalism and consumer protection publication dedicated to exposing scams, financial fraud, misleading business practices, cryptocurrency risks, and other threats that can harm consumers and investors.
We believe reliable information should be available to everyone. That is why the vast majority of our work is published free of charge and accessible to the public.
Maintaining that independence requires resources.
Your support helps us continue investigating subjects that matter, publish evidence-based reports, verify public records, review consumer complaints, monitor regulatory actions, and provide timely scam alerts that may help people avoid financial loss.
Why Your Support Matters
Investigative journalism is both time-intensive and expensive.
Every report may involve reviewing thousands of pages of documents, examining corporate records, analyzing court filings, monitoring regulatory developments, verifying public claims, preserving online evidence, and cross-checking information from multiple independent sources.
In addition to research, there are ongoing operational costs, including:
- Investigative research and fact-checking
- Public record and document retrieval
- Website infrastructure and cybersecurity
- Secure evidence storage and data preservation
- Editorial review and publication
- Technical tools used for investigations
- Legal review where appropriate
- Maintaining a free public archive of investigations
Your contribution directly supports this work.
Our Commitment to Editorial Independence
ReportingScams.com does not sell favorable coverage.
We do not accept payment in exchange for positive reviews, higher rankings, favorable investigations, or editorial opinions.
Donations never influence what we investigate, how we investigate it, or what conclusions are published.
Every investigation follows the same editorial standards regardless of whether a reader has donated.
Our editorial decisions remain based solely on evidence, public interest, and responsible journalism.
Transparency
Financial support from readers helps us remain independent.
A donation is a voluntary contribution to support investigative journalism. It is not a payment for editorial coverage, article publication, content removal, reputation management, legal services, consulting, or influence over our reporting.
Donors receive no editorial privileges or special treatment.
