# Suspicious Addresses

Suspicious Transactions are labeled in ChainArgos as "sus".&#x20;

A "sus" address is one that has:

* received a transfer from a known scam (e.g. cashing out of stolen funds);
* received a transfer from a sanctioned address (whether by OFAC or any other governmental organization); &#x20;
* to/from transaction with an address flagged as a terrorist address (in this case, because both directions for the transfer could potentially be nefarious); or
* to/from transaction with an address blacklisted by the token issuer themselves (e.g. Tether regularly blacklists addresses and both directions for the transfer could potentially be nefarious).&#x20;

The threshold for a "sus" transaction is any transfer >1 from a known scam, terrorist, or blacklisted address.&#x20;

Given the expansive nature of the "sus" label, exchange wallets will almost always inevitably be labeled "sus" because they would be within one degree of separation of a "sus" address that may have used the exchange's services.&#x20;
