Get a clear verdict you understand.
A plain-language answer, a risk score, the scam category, and the exact red flags behind it — so you learn the trick, not just the warning.
Explained, not just flagged
Why ScamSweep
A calm second opinion you can trust.
Not another alarm. ScamSweep reads what you paste, weighs the evidence, and tells you plainly what's going on — and what to do next.
Explains why — not just yes or no.
Every verdict names the specific red flags it found and what they mean. You finish each scan knowing how the scam works.
Catches the latest scams.
New schemes appear weekly. ScamSweep is updated with the patterns and reported senders making the rounds right now.
Private by design.
Your messages stay on your account. Phone-number lookups are answered from our own data — never sold to third parties.
Works on texts, emails & phone numbers.
One place to check anything that feels off — an SMS, a forwarded email, a number that keeps calling, or a screenshot.
Built for families
Protect the people most likely to be targeted.
Scammers go after parents, grandparents, and teens first. The Family plan brings everyone under one roof — with a quiet way for you to help when it counts.
- One plan, up to 4 people. Add a parent, a grandparent, and a teen under a single subscription — one bill, separate private accounts.
- A helper view for you. Get a heads-up when someone you protect runs into something serious, so you can step in early.
- Private to each person. Everyone's messages stay their own. Being on the plan doesn't mean sharing what they scan.

Private by design
The opposite of a data broker.
A product that fights scams can't behave like one. So we built ScamSweep to know as little about you as it can while still keeping you safe.
- Your messages stay yours.What you paste is used to give you a verdict — nothing more. We don't sell it, and we don't share it with advertisers or data brokers.
- Phone lookups answered privately.Number checks are answered from our own data. We never resell your lookups or hand them to third parties.
- Plain promises, plainly written.No buried clauses. Our privacy policy says, in normal words, exactly what we keep and what we never do.
