ScamShield vs ScamHERO

ScamShield: Your scam-fighting sidekick ScamShield protects you by blocking scam calls, filtering scam SMSes, and letting you check suspicious messages before clicking anything regrettable. Here’s what ScamShield can do: [New] Get notified when a number you reported gets marked as scam-related - When the authorities mark a number you reported as possibly used by scammers, we’ll send you a push notification. You can also view a history of numbers you reported that have been marked as scam-related. Spot a scam before it gets you - Came across a suspicious link, message, or phone number? Paste it in to see if it might be a scam. You can even upload screenshots - works for SMS, WhatsApp, and Telegram too. Block and filter scam calls & SMSes - Follow our quick setup guide to block known scam numbers and filter out sketchy messages. Report suspicious calls, messages, and links - Help the community by reporting scams - with screenshots if you have them. The more we know, the better we can protect everyone. Heads up: Submitting a scam report in the app isn't the same as filing an official police report. If you've been scammed, please file an e-report with the Singapore Police Force. Download ScamShield for yourself and your loved ones - because a little protection goes a long way. We may occasionally prompt you to refresh the ScamShield app, which helps with performance and security. The prompt to refresh will appear when you open the app, and does not require you to visit the App Store to update to the latest version. Feedback? Ideas? Love letters?

Just got a message that feels suspicious? Pause. Catch it before you click. Scammers count on one thing: that the moment a suspicious message lands, you have no one to ask. ScamHERO is that someone. Screenshot any text, email, or DM, and you get a clear answer in seconds. How it works ScamHERO reads the message and tells you whether it is safe, suspicious, or a scam. It highlights the exact words and details that give it away, so you learn what to watch for next time. It points you to the safe next step, including the real contact when we can verify it, so you are not calling the scammer back by mistake. Sound familiar? The text from your bank that wants you to confirm your account right now. The job offer that pays too well and asks for a fee up front. The invoice from a vendor that looks slightly off. The message from a grandchild who needs money and swears you cannot tell anyone. Different scammers, same playbook. ScamHERO works for all of it. What makes ScamHERO different We reads the actual message, not just a link or a phone number. The words are full of tells and traps, and that is what we analyze. We check the sender against a growing proprietary database of the institutions scammers impersonate most. We help you and your network get smarter so catching one scam protects the people around you. Free to start Scanning your own messages is free. ScamHERO is here for the 30 seconds that matter, with no account hoops and no paywall standing in front of your safety.
