Reporting a scam is not only about recovering your own money. Reports can help banks, platforms and law-enforcement agencies connect individual incidents to wider campaigns. Preserve messages, payment references, phone numbers and links when safe to do so. Do not continue interacting with the scammer simply to collect evidence. Your first priority is protecting yourself; the evidence can then be passed through appropriate reporting channels.
