Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 5, 2026

1. What we collect

Garuda is a community fraud registry. When you submit a report we collect the scammer identifiers you provide (phone, email, UPI, wallet, handle, domain), a free-text description, and any evidence files you upload. Submissions are anonymous by default no name, or account is required.

2. What becomes public

Once a moderator approves a submission, the scammer identifiers, evidence files, category and description become publicly searchable.

3. Do NOT share your own data

Never include your own phone, email, address, bank details, Aadhaar/PAN or other personal identifiers in a report. Only the scammer's details belong on Garuda. We will remove or reject reports that expose the reporter.

4. Removal requests

If a report incorrectly identifies you, contact us and we will review and, if appropriate, remove the entry. Approved reports may be edited or deleted at any time by moderators.

5. Cookies & analytics

Garuda uses only strictly necessary cookies for session management. We do not run third-party ad tracking.

6. Contact

Questions or takedown requests: use the report form or the official cybercrime helpline 1930 (India) for urgent fraud complaints.
