What we measured
TrustSniffer runs its own analysis pipeline on websites and cryptocurrency wallet addresses, and publishes the result of every one as a report. As of 2026-09-08, that pipeline has produced 3,372 published website analyses and 17,145 wallet assessments.
Those two numbers are the raw material behind this article. They are not a survey, a market estimate, or a scrape of someone else's list. Each one corresponds to a report page that a person could open and read, which is why we can state the figures with confidence rather than round them off.
What the data shows
The headline figure is scale: 3,372 website reports is a large enough base to be useful as a reference point when someone asks how many sites TrustSniffer has actually looked at, rather than how many it claims to cover in theory.
The wallet figure tells a related but separate story. Scams increasingly route payment through crypto addresses rather than bank transfers, so TrustSniffer assesses wallets alongside sites. At 17,145 assessed addresses, that dataset is roughly five times the size of the website dataset, which reflects how much wallet-checking activity happens once a site has already been flagged or searched.
We are not publishing a month-by-month trend line in this article. The evidence we hold and can stand behind is the cumulative total as of the date above, not a series of monthly counts. If you came here looking for a chart of new scam domains per month, that specific breakdown is not part of what we can currently verify, and we would rather say so than imply a trend we can't reproduce.
What it means for you
If you're trying to judge whether a statistic about scam sites is trustworthy, ask where the number came from and whether the underlying reports are visible. Our 3,372 figure is reproducible in that sense: it is a count of published pages, not an estimate.
In practice, the most useful thing you can do with a dataset like this isn't to read it as a trend forecast. It's to use it as a base to check the one site or wallet address that's actually in front of you right now, before you send money or share details.
How we collected this
Every figure in this article comes from TrustSniffer's own first-party analysis records, current as of 2026-09-08. The website count and the wallet count are tracked separately because they come from different checks: a domain analysis looks at the site itself, while a wallet assessment looks at an on-chain address.
We're disclosing the boundaries of this data deliberately. It covers what TrustSniffer has analysed and published, not the total universe of scam sites or wallets that exist. A site or wallet that hasn't been submitted or flagged for analysis won't appear in these totals, and that's a limitation of any first-party dataset like this one, not a claim we're trying to hide.
Check a site yourself
Aggregate numbers are useful for context, but they don't tell you whether the specific link in your inbox or the wallet address you've been sent is safe to use. That's a separate check, and it's the one that actually matters in the moment.
You can run a site through the website checker to see if it's already been analysed, or check a crypto address with the wallet checker before sending funds. If you want to browse entities that have already been flagged, the sanctions directory lists them, and the Risk Index gives you the current overall risk picture rather than a single site's score.
