Summary
- Use FakeWatch only for projects you are allowed to act for, and only against real fakes.
- We find impersonators and prepare takedown reports. You send them, or you order a takedown and we send them for you. Platforms decide whether to remove the fakes.
- Paid plans are prepaid in USDT or USDC, one month at a time, with no auto-renewal and no refunds. A takedown order is paid after it ends, only for the websites that went offline.
- Our findings are automated and can be wrong. Check them before you act.
These terms are an agreement between you and FakeWatch ("we", "us"), the service at fakewatch.pro. By creating an account or using the service, you accept these terms and our Privacy Policy. If you use FakeWatch for a project or company, you accept these terms on its behalf and confirm that you may do so.
The service
FakeWatch looks for websites, social accounts, Telegram groups, tokens and people that pretend to be your crypto project. It scores what it finds, alerts you, helps you prepare takedown reports and hosts a public page where your community can check official links. What each plan includes is listed on the pricing page.
Accounts
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- Give a real email address and keep your account details up to date.
- Keep your password and two-factor codes safe. You are responsible for what happens in your account and workspace, including actions by team members you invite.
- Tell us at once at [email protected] if you think someone else has access to your account.
Brand authorization
You may add a project only if you own it, work for it or have written permission to protect it. You confirm that the official links, names, logos and team members you add are accurate. We may ask for proof, such as a DNS record, a post from the official account or an email from the official domain, and we may pause reports until you provide it.
Acceptable use
You must not:
- file false or misleading reports, or report sites and accounts you know are not fakes;
- use FakeWatch against competitors, critics, fan communities or legitimate resellers;
- add projects you are not authorized to act for;
- use our bots to spam, collect member data or moderate groups you do not manage;
- scrape the service, bypass plan limits or rate limits, or share one paid account across unrelated projects;
- test, probe or attack our security without written permission;
- break the law or the rules of the platforms we work with.
Misuse can get your account suspended without notice.
Reports and takedowns
- A report is a complaint sent to a registrar, host, social platform or blocklist. They decide whether to act. We do not promise that any fake will be removed, or how fast.
- You send the reports in your dashboard yourself, from your own email or account, with your brand owner profile and the evidence. You are responsible for their content, so review a report before you send it.
- If you order a takedown, or turn on auto-takedown, you sign a letter of authorization, and we report the website to registrars, hosts and blocklists on your behalf, from [email protected]. We check every order by hand and may decline it. A declined or cancelled order costs nothing. We take down websites only, not social accounts or tokens, and only websites that pose as your project and can cost its users money: clones of your site, wallet drainers, pages that ask for a seed phrase, a password or a payment, fake airdrop and token launch pages, and fake downloads. We decline parked domains with no site, fan sites, news, reviews, criticism and parody, forks that do not use your name or brand, and requests to move a domain to you.
- If a recipient asks for more information or a legal document, you handle it. We can help, but we are not your lawyer.
Findings and accuracy
Findings, scores and AI checks are automated. They can miss fakes and they can flag legitimate sites or accounts. Treat them as leads to review, not as final decisions. Nothing in FakeWatch is legal, financial or investment advice.
Plans and payment
- The Free plan costs nothing and has the limits shown on the pricing page.
- Paid plans are prepaid for one month in USDT or USDC on the networks shown at checkout. Pay only through the invoice in your dashboard. We never ask for payment by direct message or email.
- An invoice is valid for 60 minutes. Send the exact amount, token and network it shows. If you send the wrong token, network or amount, we will try to credit or return it, but we cannot promise to recover it.
- Plans do not renew by themselves. We remind you 7 days and 1 day before the end of the period. If you do not pay, you keep paid features for 3 more days, then the workspace moves to Free. Your data stays; features and limits above Free stop working.
- A takedown order ends 7 days after every website in it went offline, or 30 days after our first report if a website in it is still online then. It is billed when it ends, only for the websites that are offline then: $99 for the first website your workspace ever had taken down and $79 for each next one, unless a site was free. You pay the bill in USDT or USDC through the invoice in your dashboard. While a takedown bill is unpaid, we do not start new takedown orders.
- We may change prices. A new price applies only to periods you pay for after the change, and we announce it in advance.
- You pay any network fees and any taxes that apply to you.
Refunds
Payments are not refundable, including for unused days or if you move to a lower plan. One exception: if you pay the same invoice twice or send more than it asks, we return the extra to the sending address, minus the network fee, or add it to your next period, whichever you prefer.
Your content
You keep all rights to the names, logos, links and other material you add. You give us permission to use it only to run FakeWatch for you: to search for fakes, to include it in reports and to show it on your public verification page. You confirm you have the right to give this permission.
FakeWatch itself, including its software, design and texts, belongs to us. These terms do not give you any rights to it beyond using the service.
Other platforms
FakeWatch relies on other services, such as domain registries, X, Telegram, Discord, the App Store, Google Play, the Chrome Web Store, Firefox Add-ons, GitHub, npm, PyPI, YouTube, Bluesky, blockchains and email providers. They can change their rules, limit access or go offline. We are not responsible for them, and a change on their side can reduce what FakeWatch can do. The full list, with credits and licenses, is on the data sources page.
FakeWatch uses YouTube API Services to find fake YouTube channels and streams. By using FakeWatch, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service.
Token data comes in part from DexScreener, DexPaprika, Honeypot.is and the CoinGecko API, including GeckoTerminal. The CoinGecko API and its data are the property of CoinGecko. CoinGecko gives no warranty for them and is not liable to you for any loss that comes from using them. The disclaimers and limits of liability in these terms protect CoinGecko in the same way they protect us. We, not CoinGecko, are responsible for telling you that this data can be incomplete or wrong.
Suspension and closing
- You can stop using FakeWatch at any time. To close your account and delete your data, email [email protected] from the address on your account.
- We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, puts others at risk or has not paid. When we can, we warn you first and explain why.
- We may stop offering the service. If we do, we give at least 30 days' notice and return the unused part of any prepaid period.
Disclaimers and liability
FakeWatch is provided "as is" and "as available". We work to keep it running and accurate but do not promise that it will be uninterrupted, error-free or catch every fake.
To the extent the law allows:
- we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits, lost tokens or funds, or harm caused by impersonators or other third parties;
- our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
You agree to cover our reasonable costs if a third party makes a claim against us because of your reports, your content or your breach of these terms.
Changes
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. For important changes, we email account owners at least 14 days before they take effect. If you keep using FakeWatch after that, you accept the new terms.
