Got a strange message? Upload it and we'll check.
In seconds, we'll tell you if it's a scam, why we think so, and what to do next.
How it works
Upload
Upload a screenshot of the text, email, chat or website, a photo of a letter, or a PDF of a suspicious invoice you have suddenly received.
Read the answer
The AI looks for the signs fraud investigators look for and tells you plainly what it is and what to do.
Warn others

Your privacy
- Your picture is only stored if you tick the box before uploading.
- Your picture is seen only by our review team. Before anything is shared, our team covers names, account numbers, addresses and other personal details, including personal details of third parties. Pictures we don't publish are deleted.

- You can ask for your case to be removed at any time.

Good to know

Built by fraud fighters, for everyone
ScamLocator was created by fraud prevention and anti-money-laundering professionals. Our work is stopping fraud inside the financial system, and we see the same thing again and again: by the time a case reaches a fraud team, the money is often already gone.
The strongest protection comes earlier, at the moment someone reads a message and decides whether to trust it. This site puts a fraud investigator's eye in everyone's pocket.
Our goal
- Stop fraud before it happens by giving anyone a fast, plain-language second opinion.
- Share what we see with society so new scams are recognised early, not after they've spread.
Please note
This is an AI-assisted assessment for awareness only. It is not legal or financial advice, and ScamLocator takes no responsibility for this assessment or for any decisions made based on it. Checks are made by AI and can be wrong. If you're unsure, contact your bank or the organisation directly using contact details you already trust, and report crimes to your local police.
Every check makes you safer.
Every share makes someone else safer.
