StopCheck Stop. Check. Then act.
Helping you spot scams before you act.

Simple by design
How It Works
Three clear steps help you slow things down and make a more confident decision.
- 1
Check Something
Share the message, screenshot, link, email, or phone number that does not feel right.
- 2
Review the Warning Signs
StopCheck explains possible concerns in plain language, without technical jargon.
- 3
Ask Someone You Trust
When the risk may be high, involve a family member or friend before taking the next step.
Pressure is a warning sign
Stop. Check. Then act.
Scammers often create urgency. They may pressure you to send money, share verification codes, click a link, or act immediately before you have time to think.
It is always okay to pause, hang up, and check first.
Urgency does not create an obligation.
A real organization will give you time to verify a request using a phone number or website you already know and trust.
A second set of eyes
Your Trusted Person
When StopCheck identifies a potentially high-risk situation, you can involve a trusted family member or friend. They can help you review what happened and decide on a safe next step—together.
