The copied FTC website
A website copies the FTC’s name, logo, design or articles and claims to accept fraud reports. Its address may look official but end in .com, .org, .us or .online instead of .gov.
What they want
Personal information and report details that can be used for identity theft or account attacks.
YOUR NEXT MOVE
Check through another route.
For U.S. FTC reports, type ReportFraud.ftc.gov yourself and confirm the address ends in .gov before entering information. Don’t trust a logo, copied content or a link sent by an unexpected caller or message.
