Why report fraud?

Scammers are good at what they do – and they target all of us. They hope to get people off balance just long enough to take advantage. In 2018, the Federal Trade Commission received more than 122,500 reports from military consumers – including current or former servicemembers or military spouses. The reports help us track how scams evolve and how they’re affecting the military and veterans communities. If you spot a possible scam, talk about it with someone you trust. Then report it to us at FTC.gov/complaint. Your story could help someone avoid that scam and could help the FTC stop the scammers.
