Links
Paste an address. We look at where it really goes and whether it matches who it claims to be.
How it will work
From “is this a scam?” to a clear next step.
Scamory is being built to help you check something that feels off. You bring it. We look for warning signs and explain them in plain words. You decide what to do. It isn’t live yet.
What you can bring
Four things that make people hesitate.
The first checks are planned around the things people actually get. Some will arrive before others.
Text messages
Paste the words. We look for pressure, odd requests and the usual tricks.
Emails
Share the email. We read what’s visible, including links that say one thing and lead somewhere else.
Screenshots
Upload an image. We read the words and links in it. Anything unclear is clearly marked as unclear.
Step by step
What happens when you check something.
No account tour, no jargon. Four steps.
- 1
You bring something you’re unsure about
Paste a link or message, or upload an email or screenshot.
- 2
We look for warning signs
We compare who the message says it’s from with where it really comes from, and look at how the link is built. We open links on a separate machine, never on yours.
- 3
You get reasons, not just a label
Each result says what looked wrong, what we couldn’t check, and why.
- 4
You choose what happens next
Act on the advice, ask the organisation through a channel you already trust, or share the result with someone in your family.
What you’ll see
Four honest outcomes.
We won’t stamp anything “safe”. Every result is one of these.
High risk
Several strong warning signs point the same way. Don’t click, pay or reply.
Suspicious
Something doesn’t add up. We show you what, and how to check it yourself.
No clear warning found
We didn’t spot anything wrong. That is not a promise that it’s safe.
Inconclusive
We couldn’t see enough to say. We tell you what was missing.
We won’t show a score or a percentage. We’d only do that once we could back it up.
Honest about limits
What Scamory can’t do.
A good check knows where it stops. Here is where ours stops.
It can miss a scam
New tricks appear all the time. No warning is not a guarantee of safety.
It can’t see everything
A cropped screenshot or a forwarded email may hide the clues. We say so instead of guessing.
It doesn’t replace the real company
When in doubt, contact the bank or the company yourself, through the app or a number you already trust.
Not in the first version
Checking by forwarding an email, apps, browser add-ons and automatic alerts to family are later ideas. We’ll only describe them as available once they are.
Be there for the first checks.
