Is this a scam?

Paste a message, email or link and we'll point out the warning signs — and show you the lesson that explains the trick.

Common questions

Is it free?

Yes. There is no sign-up and no payment. Paste a message and get an answer.

Do you keep what I paste?

No. We do not store the text of your message. It is sent to an AI service to be checked, and all we keep is a scrambled fingerprint of it — which cannot be turned back into your text — along with the result.

Can you tell me a message is safe?

No, and we never will. The most we can say is that a message does not show the warning signs we look for. A new scam we have not seen before would look exactly like that, so treat every message with the same care.

What should I do if it looks like a scam?

Do not reply, do not click any link, and do not send money or a code. If it claims to be from your bank, a courier or a relative, contact them yourself using a number or address you already had — never the one in the message.

Which scams does it recognise?

Fake delivery texts, bank and login phishing, “hi mum” relative emergencies, investment and crypto offers, romance scams, fake shops and subscriptions, job and money-mule offers, dangerous downloads, and QR-code traps.
