Where do I report a crypto scam in Indonesia?

Report the fraudulent transaction at IASC (iasc.ojk.go.id) — it coordinates with banks to block the receiving account. Call OJK on 157 for guidance, check the account on cekrekening.id, and file the crime with Patroli Siber (patrolisiber.id).

IASC is the Indonesia Anti-Scam Centre run by OJK. Report a fraud transaction with the scammer's account number and proof at iasc.ojk.go.id and it coordinates with banks to block the account and attempt recovery — the most time-critical step.

Can someone recover my stolen crypto for a fee?

No. Scammers even impersonate IASC — the only official reporting URL is iasc.ojk.go.id. Anyone charging an upfront recovery fee is a second scam.
