Tick what applies
How this is calculated, and where it stops working
The problem it solves
People who have been defrauded can almost always point, afterwards, to several moments that felt slightly off. The difficulty is that at the time those moments arrive one at a time and never assemble into a judgement. This tool puts them side by side.
How the score works
Some items count for more than others, depending on how typical they are of real scams. Asking for codes or a seed phrase, requiring payment before withdrawal, asking you to keep it secret and borrowing your account count the most, because genuine platforms and genuine people almost never ask for them. Once the ticked items add up past a certain point, you get the matching warning. That is all: no AI behind it, no online lookup, and no record of what you ticked.
Why there is no percentage
Because a percentage would pretend to a precision that does not exist here, and a low number would encourage exactly the wrong response. So the output is three directional bands and nothing finer.
Where the data goes
Nowhere. Everything stays on your own phone or computer, nothing is sent anywhere, and closing the page discards it. You can verify that yourself: disconnect from the internet and the tool still works.
What it cannot cover
The items come from known scripts, and new variants will appear. No match is not the same as safe — particularly for the type where nobody impersonates anything and the other person is simply "your friend". That one is recognised differently; see the long con.
