Investment-related fraud was once again the largest component of these losses, followed by business email compromises and tech support scams" — across 1,008,597 complaints filed in the US alone; this directory's counts are a small, self-reported, worldwide slice of that much larger picture. — FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center, [2025 Internet Crime Report](https://www.ic3.gov/AnnualReport/Reports/2025_IC3Report.pdf) ## Frequently asked questions ### Why isn't my country listed? A country only appears once at least one report's number resolves to it. If you don't see yours, be the first to file a report. ### How often is this list updated? Immediately — every count on this page reflects the reports on file in real time, not a periodic snapshot. ### What does 'Unknown' mean? The reported number's calling code couldn't be resolved to a country. It's still searchable from the homepage, just not filterable by country. ## Report this to official agencies This case file is a self-reported community record, not an official investigation.
