ScamDekho covers the most common types of online fraud targeting Indian users every single day.
Got a message saying your KYC is expiring or you've won a lottery? Paste it here. We catch fake bank alerts, phishing forwards, and fraud SMS that look real but aren't.
We check the domain age, SSL status, and run it against 12+ blacklists. If it's a cloned bank page or a fake shopping site, you'll know before you type anything in.
Sellers lose money every day to forged payment proofs. Upload the screenshot and we'll flag signs of editing like mismatched fonts, wrong timestamps, or known fake templates.
Before you scan that QR code or send money to a UPI ID, run it through our checker. We look for known fraud patterns and suspicious handle names.
Fake offer letters ask for money upfront, use Gmail addresses, and promise unrealistic salaries. Upload the PDF and we'll tell you what's off.
Most global scam tools miss India-specific fraud like courier delivery scams, fake FASTag renewal links, or "digital arrest" calls. We're built to catch these.
These are real cases. Each looked completely genuine at first glance.
Multiple engineering graduates received offer letters from Gmail IDs impersonating TCS HR. Each letter demanded Rs 10,000-20,000 as "security deposit" before joining. TCS issued a public notice confirming they never charge fees during recruitment.

Fraudsters use bit.ly links, misspelled domains like "hdfcbankindia.com," or newly registered domains to host fake websites. Always verify a URL before clicking.
Your account will be blocked in 24 hours" or "Claim your prize before midnight." These phrases are designed to stop you from thinking clearly. Real banks and companies never use such language.
No bank, government body, or legitimate company will ever ask for your OTP, net banking password, or any upfront payment via WhatsApp or SMS. This is always a scam.
Lottery wins, Work-from-Home jobs paying Rs 50,000/day, or investment schemes promising 300% returns are classic fraud traps targeting Indian users daily.
