Paste the suspicious text or email — or type what the caller said — and ScamCheck looks for the patterns behind nearly every scam script, then explains what it found in plain language.
ScamCheck spots common patterns; it cannot see everything, and a message with no known patterns can still be a scam. When in doubt: hang up, wait ten minutes, and call a person you already trust — or your bank on the number printed on your card.
Nearly every scam is one of a handful of scripts wearing a new costume. Learn the tells once and you'll hear them forever.
"IRS," "Social Security," "a warrant for your arrest." Real agencies write letters; they don't call demanding same-day payment.
A "grandchild" in jail or in a crash, a voice that's "hurt so it sounds different," a lawyer who needs money quietly.
They say your account is compromised and your money must move to a "safe account." Banks never ask you to move money to safety.
You've "won" — you just need to pay taxes or a release fee first. Real prizes never cost money to receive.
A friendly stranger with a trading platform and screenshots of gains. Deposits go in; withdrawals never come out.
A frozen screen, a loud warning, a toll-free number. They'll ask to "remote in" — and then into your bank.
Inside GuardCircle, this same protection is wired directly to the money: risky payments don't just get a warning — they wait for a family OK before a dollar moves.
