Scam Text Checker
Paste the suspicious message and review common fraud patterns before replying, clicking a link or sending money.
Urgency and threats
Flags pressure such as final warnings, account suspension, legal threats or demands to act immediately.
Sensitive data requests
Highlights requests for passwords, one-time codes, bank logins, seed phrases or other high-risk information.
Payment red flags
Looks for gift cards, crypto, wire transfers and upfront payment language that often appears in scams.
Common scam text patterns
Scam texts often impersonate delivery services, banks, government agencies, employers, family members or online marketplaces. The goal is usually to make you react before you verify the story.
Do not judge a message only by the sender name displayed on your phone. Sender IDs and phone numbers can be spoofed or copied. Verify the claim using a contact method you already trust.
How to check it safely
Frequently asked questions
Can a scam text come from a normal-looking phone number?
Yes. A normal local number does not prove the sender is legitimate.
Is it safe to reply STOP to every suspicious text?
Not always. For an unknown sender, replying can confirm that your number is active. Use your phone's block and report tools when appropriate.
What if the message says a family member needs money urgently?
Contact that person through a known number or another trusted channel before sending anything.
