Clear answers about how Scamy works, what it can safely tell you, and how privacy and country-specific rules affect scam checks.
Scamy combines file analysis with educational guidance so visitors can understand why a message looks risky, not just receive a label. The goal is to help people make safer decisions in real situations.
The site is designed for screenshots, image files, and PDFs that contain suspicious emails, payment requests, invoices, or messages. It works best when the document clearly shows the text you want checked.
No. Scamy is an assistive tool. It highlights patterns commonly found in scams, but users should still verify financial requests, account changes, and sensitive instructions with the official source.
No. Scamy provides general scam-safety information and automated risk signals. It is not legal, financial, banking, insurance, or law-enforcement advice, and high-stakes decisions should be checked with the right professional or official organization.
Yes, but laws, reporting channels, and privacy rights vary by country and region. Users should follow the rules that apply where they live and report urgent fraud to their bank, platform provider, local police, or national scam-reporting service.
The website is designed to analyze submitted content only for the scam check and not to retain uploaded files or personal data after analysis. Users should still avoid uploading unnecessary sensitive details when a cropped screenshot or redacted document is enough.
The Terms explain what the tool can and cannot do, how users should handle sensitive content, and how responsibility works when laws differ across countries. Reading them helps users understand the limits before relying on a result.
Use the scanner as a second opinion, then verify important requests through the official company, bank, platform, or local reporting channel.
