Got a text from the "bank", the SAT or a delivery company? Share it to Escudo and in seconds you'll know if it's a scam and what to do. Made for your parents.
Got a strange message? Share it to Escudo and in seconds it helps you know whether you can trust it, why, and what to do.
No typing, no account and big, easy-to-read text. Escudo is made for our parents: people who get fake messages from the "bank", delivery companies, the SAT or "your son has been arrested", and can't tell which ones are real.
A TRAFFIC LIGHT, NOT A LECTURE
Green: looks legit
Yellow: not sure, be careful
Red: it's a scam
Below the traffic light:
• Why: one or two clear sentences. "Your bank will never ask for your PIN by text."
• What to do: concrete steps. "Don't open the link. Delete the message."
• Listen: it reads it to you out loud.
• Tell someone: sends the result to your son or daughter on WhatsApp with one tap.
THAT EASY
1. Press and hold the message and tap Share.
2. Choose Escudo.
3. Done: your answer in seconds.
Works with text messages, WhatsApp, email, screenshots and links. You can also paste the message inside Escudo.
KNOWS MEXICO'S SCAMS
Messages from the SAT, delivery companies (DHL, Estafeta), banks asking for your PIN, "unrecognized charge", prizes, relatives with a "new number", fake jobs, Mercado Libre, CFE, Telcel, miracle investments, instant loans… and it also recognizes your bank's real alerts.
CAREFUL ON PURPOSE
• If a message asks for your PIN, password, a code or an urgent transfer, Escudo never marks it green.
• When in doubt, it marks it yellow. It would rather warn you than give you a false green.
FOR THE KIDS: LOOK AFTER YOUR PARENTS
Set it up with them: the 3-step welcome teaches them how to share a message. With Family Sharing, a single Escudo Plan covers your whole family at no extra cost.
YOUR PRIVACY
• No account needed.
• We don't keep your messages or screenshots: they're checked and discarded.
• Your history lives only on your phone and you can delete it anytime.
PLANS
• Free: 3 checks per month.

Escudo offers guidance, not a guarantee. It is not a bank or an authority. When in doubt, call the number on the back of your card.
