How it works
Three steps that protect the next person
Search before hiring
Look up a worker, company, phone number or payment reference to see what others already reported.
Report bad work or scams
Tell the story, attach your evidence and payment details. Private files go to admins only.
Help others avoid repeat offenders
Your report adds to a public pattern, so a risky crew can't keep cycling through new victims.
What can be reported
If it cost you money or trust, report it
You don't need a court case. A clear story, a phone number and one photo is enough to warn someone else.
Evidence stays private
Photos, chat screenshots, receipts, IBANs, MBWay numbers, PayPal or Revolut details and any other private files are visible only to AvoidTheCrew admins. Public users never see your bank or payment data.
Public profiles show patterns
Each public profile shows the shape of the problem, never your private files, so anyone can spot a serial bad actor at a glance.
