Scammed — where do I report?

Scammed online or by phone — where to report? Register the scammer on Apgavo.lt and join other victims for a potential group lawsuit.

If you were scammed online, by phone, or in person — Apgavo.lt is the fastest place to report the scammer and join other victims of the same person. Reporting is free, takes a few minutes, and your case is automatically linked with other victims for lawsuit review.

Why report on Apgavo.lt

Fighting a scammer alone is often too expensive — legal costs exceed the amount lost. Apgavo.lt solves this by joining victims of the same scammer into one case:

  • Free registration — reporting and account creation cost nothing
  • Automatic victim matching — the system links reports by IBAN, phone, email, or other identifiers
  • Partner law firm — once victim count and damages reach a threshold, the case is evaluated for a group lawsuit
  • Full confidentiality — no data (yours or the scammer's) is publicly visible; used only for matching cases and case work
  • No commitment — you decide whether to join the lawsuit when the case is evaluated

What to register

Gather the information you have about the scammer before filling in the report. The more identifiers you provide, the higher the chance of matching your case with other victims:

  • IBAN — the account number you transferred money to
  • Phone number — the one you communicated with
  • Email — the scammer's contact
  • Name / company name — even if fake
  • Website or ad — URL, screenshot
  • Social media profile — Facebook, Instagram, Telegram link
  • Evidence — chat screenshots, payment confirmations, contracts

How the platform works

Apgavo.lt is a group lawsuit platform — not just a scammer blacklist. The process is straightforward:

  1. Register the scammer — add identifiers and evidence
  2. System matches reports — looks for the same identifiers across other victims
  3. You get notified — when someone else reports the same scammer
  4. Law firm evaluates the case — once victim count and damages are sufficient
  5. You decide — whether to join the group lawsuit

What is a group lawsuit

A group lawsuit is when several victims of the same scammer file one joint case in court. Three main advantages over an individual lawsuit:

  • Lower cost per person — legal expenses are shared between all claimants
  • Stronger case — multiple witnesses and a larger combined sum increase the chance of success
  • Bigger impact — a scammer is harder to ignore when dozens of victims stand behind a case

The Apgavo.lt partner law firm evaluates a case only when the number of victims and total damages justify court proceedings. If the threshold is not yet met, your report stays in the system and can be activated later.

Register the scammer now

The sooner you register your case, the sooner it links with other victims and gets reviewed for a group lawsuit. The statute of limitations for civil cases in Lithuania is 3 years, so do not delay.
