Paste a suspicious call transcript, voicemail, or text message. This free tool highlights patterns commonly used in scam and robocall scripts.
Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this?
The checker uses deterministic pattern matching against known phrases extracted from verified scam scripts, FTC consumer fraud reports, and robocall transcripts. It is a pattern highlighter, not a certainty detector. It cannot catch every scam variation (especially newly crafted scripts), and the absence of flagged phrases does not guarantee a communication is legitimate.
What should I do if I get a high-signal result?
If your message or transcript triggers multiple red-flag categories, do not reply, do not click any links, do not call any phone numbers provided in the message, and never send money or sensitive personal information. If the caller claimed to represent a bank, government agency (like the IRS or Social Security Administration), or company (like Amazon), independently look up their official customer service number from their legitimate website or the back of your card and contact them directly to verify.

Stop Scam Calls Before Your Phone Ever Rings
Callro screens calls carrying these same patterns before they ever reach you. Callro stops flagged calls from ringing your phone. Callro reads the carrier's STIR/SHAKEN verification status (Passed, Failed, or Unverified) as reported by Android. Callro does not request access to your contacts, your phone's call log, or your microphone.
