Methodology and evidence policy
Reports of Scams separates documented facts, allegations, and editorial analysis. This page defines how we verify records and publish updates.
Source hierarchy
Primary sources (regulator filings, court records, signed contracts, dated tickets) are prioritized over summaries and commentary.
Evidence workflow
Each page is structured around timeline quality: what happened, when it happened, and what documents support each claim.
Language controls
Unresolved matters use allegation-based wording to avoid presenting legal liability as established fact.
Update policy
Pages are updated when new material evidence appears. Publication date and update date are displayed on report and article pages.
