Are you the victim of a scam or fraud?

Scam and Fraud Protocol

If you believe you have been the victim of fraud or a scam related to a listing on our site, follow this protocol immediately:

Step 1: Protect Yourself and Finances

1. Stop Communication: Cease all communication with the suspected scammer immediately. Do not send any further money or information.

2. Contact Your Bank: If you used a credit card, bank transfer, or any official payment method (like PayPal or Zelle), contact your bank or payment provider immediately to report the transaction as fraudulent and attempt a reversal.

3. Gather Evidence: Take screenshots of all communications, transaction receipts, the listing, and the user's profile before the listing or account is potentially removed.

Step 2: Report the Incident to FurryListings

1. Access the Report Tool: On the listing details page, or within your chat history with the user, click the "Report Ad" or "Report User" button (often a flag 🚩 icon).

2. Select Reason: Choose the category "Scam / Fraud."

3. Submit Details: Provide all the evidence you gathered (screenshots and a timeline of events) to our support email at hello@furrylistings.com.

Step 3: Contact Law Enforcement

• We recommend contacting your local police department, especially if you have lost a significant amount of money.

• The platform will cooperate fully with law enforcement requests during official investigations.
