FAQ
What is a scam checker?
A scam checker is a tool that takes a URL, wallet address, phone number, or pitch text and tells you whether it matches known scam patterns. GACS aggregates 12,000+ confirmed scam sites, 50,000+ flagged wallets, and fresh community reports into a single one-click verdict.
How accurate is the GACS scam checker?
Every entry in the blacklist is community-verified, and the AI second-opinion is grounded only in the signals it can prove (domain age, certificate data, on-page text). The checker will say 'suspicious' rather than 'safe' if it cannot find enough evidence — never trust a tool that gives 100% certainty about a fresh domain.
Does the scam checker work for crypto scams?
Yes. It detects pig-butchering sites, fake exchanges, wallet drainers, romance-scam links, recovery-scam pages, fake giveaways, and rug-pulled tokens. For wallets specifically, use the dedicated wallet checker.
Is the scam checker free, and is there a signup?
Free for everyone, no account required, no API key, no per-day limit for normal use. The same engine powers the browser extension and the public /api/public/check-domain endpoint.
Why does the checker sometimes say 'suspicious' instead of 'scam'?
Because honest detection has to admit uncertainty. A 30-day-old domain hosting a copycat exchange is suspicious — it might be a scam, or it might be a brand-new legitimate service. The checker shows you the evidence so you can make the call.
