How can I report fraudulent content on OpenSea?
Updated over 10 months ago

OpenSea is a self-serve, peer-to-peer marketplace, which means anyone can create and sell an NFT using OpenSea.

Our User Safety team actively monitors the platform and removes fraudulent content as soon as it is discovered or reported by users. This includes content that may infringe on the rights of others or otherwise violates our Terms of Service.

When you make a report, our team reviews the collection to determine if it violates our Terms of Service and takes the appropriate action. Your ticket will be closed at that point, and you may not hear back from us directly due to high volumes. If you don't hear back from us, please know that we appreciate your help in making OpenSea a secure marketplace.

Reporting a fraudulent collection

You can follow the steps below to report fraudulent or inappropriate content.
