How do you currently decide if a message is a scam?

Hi,

I m working on a simple tool that analyzes text messages (SMS, WhatsApp, email) and flags potential scams.

The idea is very straightforward: you paste a message and get a quick assessment of whether it looks suspicious, along with a short explanation.

Before going further, I m trying to understand how people actually deal with this today.

Building a Privacy Toolkit for Everyday Users. What Would You Actually Use?

Hi everyone,

I m working on a small project called 404Found Privacy Toolkit. The idea is to create very simple tools that help people quickly understand whether something online is safe or not, without needing technical knowledge.

Right now I m exploring a few directions:

  • checking whether a phone number has been reported as a scam

  • analyzing suspicious messages or emails

  • quick link safety checks

  • temporary email for signups
