# How to report scams

{% hint style="info" %}
XRPSCAN is a block explorer that shows transaction information from public blockchain in an easy to read format. We don't store any user funds, nor do we have any control over how transactions execute on the blockchain.
{% endhint %}

Due to the nature of how blockchains work, these transactions can neither be cancelled, nor reversed.

If you suspect you've been scammed, we advise you to approach your local police (or depending on your country, any relevant law enforcement agency that deals with financial or online crimes) and register a complaint of scam/fraud with them.

Recovering stolen funds is a slow process. It is possible you may never see your funds again. We advise you to stay safe, do your own due diligence and participate in online schemes with utmost caution.

## Reporting suspicious wallets

You may also report suspicious wallets to our partner [Chainabuse](https://chainabuse.com/). Once it is reported to Chainabuse, we will flag the wallet on xrpscan.com. Click the link below.
