De Fraudehelpdesk geeft advies aan mensen die te maken krijgen met fraude. Helaas maken oplichters ook vaak gebruik van onze naam, wat soms resulteert in onterechte (slechte) recensies. Vanwege de AVG mogen wij geen gegevens van mogelijke daders noteren. Wat wij wél doen? Wij geven een eerste advies bij (vragen over) fraude en verwijzen eventueel door naar relevante partijen. We waarschuwen voor oplichting door valse e-mails en alerts op onze website en social media-kanalen te plaatsen. Verder krijgen wij dankzij alle meldingen als landelijk meldpunt een goed overzicht van wat er in Nederland speelt op het gebied van fraude. We rapporteren onze data aan het ministerie van Justitie & Veiligheid en mede op basis daarvan wordt beleid gemaakt, onder meer op het gebied van preventie en verstoringen. Ook de media, studenten en onderzoekers maken gebruik van onze data. Verder zijn we in nauw contact met andere partijen die mogelijk iets kunnen betekenen in het verstoren van de oplichters, zoals politie, banken en telecomproviders. Onze taak bij het bestrijden van fraude zit dus vooral in het advies en de preventie: het voorkomen van nog meer slachtofferschap door voorlichting (bewustwording) en het waarschuwen voor actuele dreigingen.

Very suspicious organization collects all your personal data, but you can not even mention a spammer or it’s number or it’s e-mal, or even the name.
That is one thing that is very interesting about fraudehelpdesk.nl . You can not tell who (the name, number and e-mail) send you a spam e-mail, made call, or send you an sms. As it is prosecuted by EU law. But you need to give them your full name, your telephone number, your full address, your e-mail, etc. And the question why? Why they collecting all this information if they can not really help you? It is a very suspicious organization. And I do not understand the purpose of it at all.

Second level scam while checking scam sms
I was checking the phone number of a scam-like sms sent by the "tax authorities", and found them. You can make a report of a fraud, but you must include sensitive personal information, which is very suspicious, not talking about the fact this dutch website has an english name. This is unlikely in the Netherlands

Hello Kornél Fügedi,
We're sorry you've experienced fraud. Unfortunately, our phone number is sometimes spoofed to mislead people. We are the national (Dutch) hotline to report fraud, and certainly not scammers.
