How this compares to official figures

Frequently asked questions
Is this an official scam statistics report?
No. These are counts of self-reported, unverified submissions to this site, not a government or telecom fraud statistic. They reflect what's been filed here, not the true scale of WhatsApp scams overall.
How often do these numbers change?
On every request — this page recomputes counts from the live case file rather than a cached or periodic snapshot.
Why might one scam type or country look overrepresented?
Report volume tracks who uses this site, not just where scams happen — a spike in one country or type often reflects reporting activity as much as actual scam frequency.
How is the period-over-period change calculated?
It compares the last 30 days of reports to the 30 days before that, by filing date. On a young, low-volume case file this number swings a lot on small counts — treat it as a rough direction, not a statistically meaningful trend.
