The app allows users in real-time to: Send pictures of prices on signs and products Capture and report receipts Write narratives of interactions with sellers of a good or commodity Report evidence of prices of identical products by different sellers in the same vicinity Capture additional supporting documentation In 2017, more than 14,000 price-gouging complaints were filed during Hurricane Irma. The Attorney General’s NO SCAM Price Gouging App can be downloaded for free through Apple and Android stores by searching NO SCAM. For tips on how to better report price gouging, click here.
