Crypto scam evidence checklist: what to collect
Collect these items now, before anything is deleted.
Checklist
- Every payment you sent: date, amount, coin, chain, and transaction hash.
- Your own wallet address and every address you paid.
- Screenshots of all messages, with the scammer's name, number or profile link visible.
- Screenshots of the website or app, including its web address and any "balance" it showed you.
- Emails and any documents they sent (contracts, certificates, "withdrawal fee" demands).
- Bank or card statements, if you bought the crypto for this.
- A short timeline in your own words: how you met, what was promised, what you paid.
Tips
- Do not edit or crop screenshots in a way that hides the date or the sender.
- Save files in one folder and back it up.
- ChainFreeze adds the blockchain trail for you, so you only need the items above. See the evidence pack.
