Questions people ask

How does the scam checker work?+

It looks for the warning signs used in real Indian scams: OTP/PIN requests, fake bank or government links, threats, prize and job offers, foreign numbers and more. It explains every sign it finds.

Is my message uploaded anywhere?+

No. The check runs entirely on your phone. Nothing is sent or stored.
