Have you been scammed? You may be entitled to financial compensation. 

Join us at CultureHub for a live auction of the Scam Collection of Blair Simmons & Lindsay Gilbert. The Scam Collection celebrates works of recent and contemporary scams and those on the receiving end of said scams, and pays homage to these scam remnants. The unmistakable tension between scammer and scammed, chaos and order, is palpable in every piece. From mundane robo calls and phishing emails to absurd heartbreak stories, this is a collection of celebrated failures.

Contribute to the Scam Collection: If you or a loved one has been ripped off, fallen victim to a complex ponzi scheme, fallen victim to a simple ponzi scheme, been scammed over text (maybe it was romantic?), spoofed, given money to a charity that didn't exist, or invested in a crypto project that later rugged then you may be entitled to compensation.

View The Scam Collection Catalogue here. This is not a scam.

1-800-I-WAS-SCAMMED.COM is presented as a part of Experiments in Digital Storytelling.
