Common questions
Questions people usually ask
Do I need to install an app?
No. Just text or email us. No app, login, or password required.
What can I send?
Screenshots, copy-and-pasted texts, forwarded emails, voicemail transcripts, and photos of messages. For PDFs or documents, take a screenshot and send that, or forward the email that contained them.
Will you ever ask for passwords or one-time codes?
No. Never. If any message asks for those, treat it as a serious red flag.
Do you tell me something is definitely safe?
No. We point out what looks risky and suggest how to verify more safely on your own.
Do you analyze email attachments?
For forwarded emails, we analyze the email text and any links in it. Attachments like PDFs are not opened, but you can screenshot them and send those.
