Flggd is a free scam and fraud detection app that helps you spot scams before they cost you money. Scan suspicious text messages, emails, links, screenshots, and QR codes to get an instant verdict. Before you click, reply, or pay.
Every scam text, email, screenshot, or QR code you submit isn’t just a threat, it’s evidence. Flggd turns your submissions into protection for you and power for the community.
Here’s how Flggd works:
Instant Verdicts: Upload suspicious messages and get a clear result —
Red = definitely a scam
Yellow = possibly a scam, proceed with caution
Green = safe
Grey = most likely a scam, but lacking obvious harmful links (often a lead-in to romance scams or crypto “pig butchering”)
Red Flags & Explanation: Every verdict comes with supporting signals, a narrative that explains why, and clear next steps.
Crowdsourced AI: Each submission trains Flggd’s AI to get smarter, spotting patterns and techniques faster with every scan.
Digital Fingerprints: Flggd captures phone numbers, emails, links, and metadata — the breadcrumbs scammers leave behind — to connect scam networks.
Global Impact: Flggd packages insights, identities, and patterns for investigators, law enforcement, and fraud fighters worldwide to dismantle scam organizations.
Why Crowdsourcing Matters:
Every action you take in Flggd makes the system better, the data richer, and the world safer. The more people contribute, the stronger the protection becomes. That’s why Flggd’s scam submission and verdict features will always be free.

- Spot scams before they trick you
