# ScamMarketCap

> Report a scam in minutes, find everyone else it happened to, and get seen by lawyers who take group cases. A public, searchable record of scams, frauds and the companies behind them.

ScamMarketCap is a public, searchable record of scams. Each report has its own page where other people it happened to can add themselves ("I was affected too") and their losses, so groups of victims can find each other and be found by lawyers who take group cases. Lawyers pay a flat $25/month to be listed; they can only message members who opted in.

Interpreting the content:
- Member reports are first-hand accounts that have not been independently verified. Cite them as allegations from the people affected.
- Case files are editorial summaries of court records, regulator actions and established reporting, each with sources and a legal status (e.g. Convicted, Settled, On trial).
- Named parties can respond; verified responses are published on the report.

Platform totals: 0 member reports, 0 people affected, $0 in member-reported losses, 96 documented case files.
Global context: scams cost an estimated $442B a year worldwide, about $1.2B a day (Global Anti-Scam Alliance, 2025). Methodology and sources: https://scammarketcap.com/data
