What We Do

AI Scam Recovery helps people who have been targeted by AI-powered fraud. If a cloned voice convinced you a family member was in danger, a chatbot built a fake relationship to take your money, or a deepfake investment platform vanished with your deposit — this is where you start to fight back.

We publish step-by-step recovery guides: what to do in the first hour, how to report to the right authorities, how to trace and try to recover funds, and how to protect yourself from being targeted again. Every guide is written for someone in crisis — clear, actionable, and free of judgment.

We’re an independent publication. No corporate backing, no industry agendas. Our goal is to make recovery information accessible to everyday people when they need it most.

Why This Exists

AI has made fraud more convincing, more scalable, and harder to detect than ever before. A criminal operation can clone a grandchild’s voice from a short social-media clip, run hundreds of simultaneous romance scams with chatbots, or generate a convincing deepfake of a CEO to authorize a fraudulent wire transfer — all with tools that cost less than a monthly streaming subscription.

Most victims don’t realize they’ve been scammed until after the money is gone. When they do, they face a maze of agencies, forms, and conflicting advice — often while dealing with shame and self-blame. We exist to cut through that confusion with a straight, credible path forward.
