Report abuse
See something that shouldn't be here?
Reports on NumberCheck are written by the public, and automated filters aren't perfect. If something slipped through, tell us and we will review it — usually within one business day, and immediately for anything involving personal information or safety.
Use the form below to flag a report. Include the number, the date and category of the report, and which rule you believe it breaks. If you are the person or business affected, say so — those cases are handled first.
What we act on
Personal information
A comment names an individual, or includes an address, workplace, email or social profile.
Defamation
A report makes a serious accusation about an identifiable person or business that cannot be substantiated.
Harassment or hate
Threats, targeted abuse, or content attacking a person or group based on who they are.
Spam or advertising
Links, promotions, referral codes, or the same comment pasted across many numbers.
Manipulation
Coordinated reporting to inflate a risk score, or an owner mass-posting “safe” reports.
Wrong number
The report clearly describes a different number, or the number was recently reassigned to you.
What happens next
- 1. Triage. Content that names an individual or looks unsafe is hidden from the page while we look at it.
- 2. Review. We check the report against our community guidelines and either restore, edit or delete it.
- 3. Outcome. We reply with the decision. Repeat offenders lose the ability to submit reports.
Criminal matters belong with the authorities: report scams to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, and contact your bank immediately if you have shared financial details. Our scam call guide explains the steps.
