Frequently Asked Questions

Scamwise is a free, trusted scam check website designed to help you evaluate any suspicious communication.

If something doesn't seem right, you can submit it in whatever form you have: a message, a link, an image, or a situation you want a second opinion on.

Scamwise analyzes language patterns, behavioral signals, and subtle details such as URLs, sender information, and context. It layers this analysis with trusted scam intelligence sources to return a clear verdict and guidance on what to do next.

Built by the team at Savi, Scamwise is purpose-built for scam detection, so you get a quick, clear answer instead of having to piece together clues on your own.

Submitting to Scamwise is flexible, so you can check nearly anything that feels suspicious.

Common examples include:

  • Unusual texts or emails
  • Requests for payment or personal information
  • Delivery or account verification alerts
  • Direct messages on social media
  • Unknown or shortened links
  • A strange phone call or voicemail you're unsure about
  • An image of mail or a bill you don't recognize

You can submit content in multiple formats, including text, screenshots, images, voice entries, or by forwarding an email to submit@scamwise.com.

If you're trying to verify a specific type of message, Scamwise can help you run a phone number scam check, analyze a suspicious email, or check a website link.

Scamwise uses layered analysis to evaluate both what a message says and where it comes from. We examine language patterns and behavioral cues, then verify technical details like domain age, website reputation, link structure, and phone number risk signals against trusted intelligence sources and real-time search data.

Newly created or look-alike domains, high fraud scores, and other risk indicators are weighted more heavily to reduce the chance of missing a scam. All of these signals are interpreted together, not in isolation, to produce a clear scam verdict and practical next steps, so you don't have to piece the evidence together yourself.

Yes. Scamwise is a completely free scam check website, and no account is required.

We take privacy seriously. Scamwise processes submissions securely and does not contact you or the sender referenced in any submitted material. We do not require personal information to generate a result.

Anonymized submission data may be used to improve our detection systems for users over time. Your user data is never sold or shared with third parties.

Scamwise provides guidance based on patterns commonly associated with scams and detailed checks. While our analysis is thorough, scam tactics continue to evolve, and no tool can promise absolute certainty in every situation.

If something seems suspicious, it's best to avoid clicking links or sharing personal information until you've checked official sources and are confident it's legitimate.

Submit it through Scamwise for specific guidance. If a message appears suspicious:

  • Do not click any links
  • Do not reply
  • Do not send money or personal information
  • Block the sender if possible
  • Consider reporting the message to your email provider, phone carrier, or relevant authority

When in doubt, pause before responding and verify through official channels.

Scams are evolving. Your protection should too.

Every year, Americans lose billions of dollars to scams. After our mom was targeted, we saw firsthand how convincing these threats have become. Fueled by AI, scams have evolved from obviously suspicious to highly realistic and scalable, leaving all of us more exposed than ever.

We founded Savi to give families better protection for this new era. Scamwise is the first step: a free tool anyone can use whenever something doesn't feel right.
