Advertising Disclosure
Where our funding comes from, in plain terms.
Last updated: July 2026
Our Current Policy
The Scam Exposed does not currently run paid banner ads or accept sponsored placements on the site. Our goal is to keep the search tool, articles, and safety resources free and easy to use, without pressure from advertisers.
If This Ever Changes
If we introduce advertising in the future, we promise to follow these rules:
- Any advertisement will be clearly labeled as an "Ad" or "Sponsored," so it is never mistaken for our own editorial content or a scam warning.
- We will not allow ads for products or services that make guaranteed money-recovery claims, or that otherwise conflict with the safety message of this site.
- Advertisers will never be allowed to review, approve, or influence our scam warnings, articles, or search results before they are published.
- We will update this page to describe exactly what advertising has been added.
Third-Party Tools
We do use free analytics tools (Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity) to understand how the site is used, described in our Cookie Policy. These tools do not place ads on the site.
