Scampilot
Is this message a scam?
Is this message a scam? Paste any suspicious email, SMS, link, photo or QR code — Scampilot gives a plain-language verdict in under 5 seconds: Looks safe, Be careful, or Likely a scam, with the warning signs and exactly what to do next. No risk scores, no jargon. Free, no account, EU servers, GDPR-compliant — we never sell your data or train on your messages. Works on web, email, Telegram, Chrome & API. Built so the people most at risk can use it alone. 🦆
Florian here, co-founder of Scampilot (with Iryna, who designed everything - including our aviator-duck 🦆).
Scampilot started with my mom. She kept calling me: "Is this real?" A locked bank account. A DHL fee. A PayPal "verification." She's not bad with computers - the scams just got really good. And it hit me: if my mom is asking, millions of people are asking, and most of them don't have a techy kid to call.
So we built the thing I wished she could use on her own.
Paste an email, SMS, link, photo or QR code → a clear answer in under 5 seconds, in plain language, with the warning signs and exactly what to do next. Not a risk score. Not jargon. "Looks safe / Be careful / Likely a scam," plus the steps.
What makes it usable for her, not just for security nerds:
Free, no account, no app to start - 3 checks/day, 50/day with a free account.
It meets the message where it lives: web, a personal forwarding inbox, a Telegram bot, a Chrome extension (scans QR codes too), plus a REST API + MCP server for builders.
Trust by design: EU servers, GDPR, no tracking - we never sell your data and never train on your messages. Made in Germany.
Honest verdicts: live reputation + heuristics + an AI that escalates when unsure. If the AI's down, you still get a flagged heuristic answer. We never fake certainty.
There's a Plus plan (€9.99/mo) for families - create a family and get alerted the moment a scam reaches your parents - but joining a family is free, and checking your own messages stays free forever.
Try it with no signup - paste a mail your spam filter let through: scampilot.de/check
I'll be here all day 🦆
Tell me the weirdest scam you've gotten - and please forward this to the one family member you're always rescuing. That's exactly who we built it for.
