Does this look like a scam?
Paste a suspicious message below. We check it against known scam patterns — entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Do not transfer any money. Contact the person they claim to be — on the number you already have, not the one in this message. If your family has a safe word, ask for it.
If your family does not have a safe word yet, Suracode lets you set one up in seconds — encrypted on your phone so only your family can see it. It is completely free.

About this tool — important limitations
This tool checks text against a database of known scam indicators maintained by Dignity Labs Ltd. The output is provided for informational assistance only and does not constitute advice, assurance, or any assumption of responsibility.
The checker operates by pattern matching against known indicators. It cannot identify all scams, novel fraud, targeted social engineering, or threats not yet catalogued. A low-risk result does not mean a message is safe.
All pattern matching runs entirely in your browser. Your message content and uploaded images are never transmitted to Dignity Labs or any third party.
AI analysis (Investigate): If you choose AI analysis, your message is first redacted in your browser — names, phone numbers, emails, account numbers, addresses, and other personal details are stripped and replaced with placeholders like [NAME] and [PHONE]. You can review exactly what will be sent before confirming. The redacted text is then sent to Anthropic's Claude API for analysis. Anthropic's API does not train on inputs by default. Your original unredacted message never leaves your browser.
Database check (Investigate): If you choose a global database check, URLs, email addresses, and phone numbers extracted from the message are shown to you for review. You select which to check and exclude any that belong to you. Only the items you approve are sent to third-party threat intelligence services including Google Safe Browsing, URLhaus, PhishDestroy, EmailRep, AbuseIPDB, ScamAdviser, and Trustpilot. These are the scammer's contact details — not yours.
This page is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Standard web server logs (IP address, page visited, timestamp) are processed by Cloudflare under their privacy policy. The image scan feature loads open-source libraries from a third-party CDN (jsdelivr.net) for text recognition and QR code decoding. These requests share your IP address with that CDN, but your image is processed locally and is never uploaded. QR codes are decoded entirely in your browser — the decoded URL is shown to you before any check is performed.
If something feels wrong, trust your instincts. Contact your bank or report to Report Fraud: 0300 123 2040 if in doubt.
