Break the Scam Cycle

Scams and the financial losses they cause are rising at an alarming rate. Scam Detect targets the “extraction” stage of a scam — when money or value from a financial crime is actually transferred. By analyzing a range of data, Scam Detect generates a risk score at the individual personal identifier (PII) level, including email addresses and phone numbers. This empowers you to take immediate action according to your risk profile, such as triggering reverification or escalating for manual review.
