How It Works

Upload a screenshot or photo, paste the message or link, or describe the phone call.

The completed result appears on the page. No account, email address, or payment is required.

Do I need an account or email address?

No. Submit what you received and the full result appears on the same page. Safety Desk does not create an account or email a copy.

Do I always need a screenshot?

No. You can send a screenshot, photo, copied message, email text, website link, invoice, or a description of a phone call. Screenshots are often easiest, but they are not required.

Will Safety Desk say something is completely safe?

No. A review can identify strong scam indicators or find no obvious warning signs, but it cannot prove that a person, website, or request is legitimate. Every result includes an appropriate verification step.

What if I already clicked, paid, or shared information?

Safety Desk changes from prevention to damage control. The result prioritizes immediate containment and explains when to contact a bank, secure an account, preserve evidence, or open a recovery case with Hacked.com.

What the check examines

The automated review looks for warning signs in what you submit, including urgent demands, impersonation, requests for money or account access, and suspicious links. For website links, it can use a limited, read-only page snapshot when available.

It cannot verify a sender’s identity or guarantee that a website is safe. Missing context can change the result. The free check does not include a human review.
