To report a scam group on Telegram, open the group chat, tap on the group's name at the top, and then tap on the three dots (or "More" option).

Select "Report" and choose a reason, such as "Scam" or "Fake Account". Provide additional details if prompted, as this helps Telegram's moderation team assess the situation quickly.

If the "Report" option is not visible, you can also report the group by going to Settings > Help > Ask a Question within the Telegram app.

Describe the scam in detail, including screenshots, links, or any relevant information that supports your report. Alternatively, you can email Telegram at [email protected] with all the details.

For your safety, exit and block the group to prevent further contact. If you shared any personal or financial information, take immediate steps to secure your accounts and monitor for any suspicious activity.

If you’ve faced a similar issue, don’t hesitate to share your story here. You can also file a complaint on Xolvie to help others in the same situation.
