Report abuse

See something that shouldn't be here?

Reports on NumberCheck are written by the public, and moderation isn't perfect. If something slipped through, tell us and we will re-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 is this about?

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. 1. Triage. Content that names an individual or looks unsafe is hidden from the page while we look at it.
  2. 2. Review. A moderator checks the report against our community guidelines and either restores, edits or deletes it.
  3. 3. Outcome. We reply with the decision. Repeat offenders lose the ability to submit reports.
