Where are we at now?
Given the success they have seen they put a lot of resources into growing a network of accounts.
Currently there are nearly 600 accounts we are tracking, with the overwhelming majority (~95%) believed to be associated with this series of fraud rings.
They appear to have specialists make the accounts, age them, and then hand the device off to an operator.
These scams go to funding real violence in Nigeria from what we understand.
I ask you to be aware of these scams and the larger ongoing battle with these fraud rings.
What we offer to help
We offer a public list as well as a bot to help fight this issue. We also have an api endpoint if you’d like automation with more control.
We are committed to only ever listing scammers. I’ve been here for ages, I’ll be here for ages. This is my community.
Listing anyone other than scammers would mean people trust the list less, and that means more people fall victim. It’s not something I take lightly.
If you see anyone on the list you think is a mistake please reach out or post in their listing so we can do a double check.
We used to have a 2% error rate with a median time to correct of 2 hours, but since upgrading the bot to limit human error there’s not been a removal in over 100 entries.
Our community has a lot of people watching the list, so when we add someone people know we usually get a ping. That’s what was keeping our correction time so low before.
Our main website is
https://scamtracking.org
We have some more info on the bot as well as the api here

The main channel to see when someone new is added is here

The pinned message is where you should start.
Every listed account should have a link to their entry in the listings chat with more info.
We can’t always release all of the info that flagged someone as a scammer for us publicly though. The fraud ring bosses unfortunately are smart enough to watch our channel for tips on how to improve.
If we think the information could be used by scammers to avoid detection next time we will tend to keep it to the internal team and just release what we can.
We do have a discussion group where you can sometimes get a touch more info, as well as discuss the ongoing situation.
@ScamTrackingGroup
You can also request more info in the listing or dm an admin, sometimes we can share more 1:1 since we can tell ya aren’t a scammer.
If you want to submit new scammers or you want an easy way to look up an account to see if it’s listed you can use
