How to report a crypto scam in Indonesia
Report as fast as possible — the sooner you alert the anti-scam channels and your bank, the better the chance of stopping the funds.
Report to these authorities
- •Patrolisiber — the National Police cybercrime reporting site.
- •OJK — report financial fraud fast via its Indonesia Anti-Scam Center (IASC).
- •Bappebti — oversees crypto-asset trading.
- •Your bank — call immediately to flag the transaction.
Do this in every case
- •Stop all contact and send no more money — including "fees" or "taxes" to withdraw.
- •Secure your accounts (passwords + 2FA) and move any remaining crypto.
- •Preserve evidence: screenshots, wallet addresses, transaction hashes.
- •Report the scam wallet address on Chainabuse.
⚠️ Beware "recovery" services. Anyone who contacts you promising to get your money back for an upfront fee is almost always a second scam. See the red flags →
