The line between marketing and manipulation is disappearing.
The Get Grifters platform exists to bring it back, exposing influencer-backed scams and holding brands accountable, one click at a time.
New brands added weekly, Watchlist brands updated monthly.
YouTube Creators and Influencers
Don't push products onto your loyal followers and viewers that you have not reviewed first.
Trust loss: Viewers feel betrayed when creators push shady products.
Reputation hit: One bad deal can brand a creator as a sellout.
Platform risk: YouTube may flag or demonetize misleading promos.
Legal trouble: FTC or SEC penalties can follow false endorsements.
Fewer sponsors: Reputable brands avoid creators with bad history.
Fan backlash: Loyal audiences can turn, unsubscribe, or call out publicly.

What You Should Know
How does Get Grifters verify information?
Every claim we publish is backed by public records, first-hand research, or confirmed sources. We cross-check influencer partnerships, brand filings, and financial disclosures to ensure accuracy before anything goes live. Transparency and fact-checking are non-negotiable.
Can I submit a tip or story idea?
Yes. We welcome verified leads from creators, consumers, and insiders who’ve encountered questionable promotions or misleading products. All submissions are reviewed confidentially by our editorial team before investigation begins. Submit form below.
How do you decide which brands or influencers to feature?
We use a risk-based model that looks at reach, controversy, and consumer impact. When a brand or influencer shows signs of deceptive marketing, exaggerated claims, or hidden affiliations, it’s flagged for review and added to our internal watchlist.
