Frequently Asked Questions

Is ScamCheck free to use?

Yes. Anonymous users get 5 free scans per day. Signed-in users get 20 per month. Pro plans offer unlimited scans.

How accurate is the detection?

Our rule engine catches the most common scam patterns with high precision. For edge cases, we escalate to GPT-4o-mini for a second opinion. No tool is 100% accurate — always apply your own judgment.

Do you store my messages?

Anonymous scans are not stored. Signed-in users can optionally save scan history in their dashboard. We never use your content for advertising.

What types of scams can you detect?

Phishing, investment fraud, delivery scams, fake job offers, KYC/banking fraud, romance scams, lottery scams, tech support scams, crypto scams, WhatsApp chain scams, and more.

Can I scan URLs?

Yes. Paste the full URL into the scanner and select 'URL' as the input type. We analyze the domain and URL structure for known scam indicators.

What is the Business Plan?

The Business Plan gives you API access, team member seats, and custom reports. Ideal for teams and businesses that need high-volume scam protection.

How do I report a scam that your tool missed?

Use the contact form and include the message text. We review submitted patterns and update the detection engine regularly.

Is there an API?
