Our consortium data is truly proprietary.
Other scam checkers claim to have proprietary data, but offer no public-facing service to collect it. We’ve analysed more than 100,000 consumer-submitted scams, with every report making the next result more accurate.
Market-leading detection rates.
Our accuracy is high and false positives low, so your fraud team can act on results without double-checking them. That means faster decisions, more consistent responses, and less time spent reviewing uncertain cases.
Join the wider fraud prevention ecosystem.
We work alongside Victim Support, the City of London Police, Get Safe Online and National Trading Standards, sharing intelligence to stop current and future fraudsters.
Expert insight behind every response.
Built by specialists in behavioural psychology, criminology and linguistics, every response tells your customers not just what’s risky, but why, empowering and educating them along the way.
