🖼️ Scam Gallery

A museum of real scams — browse to get sharp-eyed, check a message, or contribute one you got.

ℹ️ How to use the Scam Gallery

🗂️ Browse — real scams sorted by type & platform. Read a few; the more you've seen, the faster you'll smell one. Note the 🚩 red flags and the green "why it's a scam".
🔎 Check a message — got something sketchy? Paste the whole thing (links included). We score the wording, match it to known scams, and check any links against a live feed of sites phishing right now.
➕ Contribute — paste a scam you received, or upload a screenshot (we read the text and auto-remove your name/number/email). It's reviewed before going public.
🔥 Trending — a live list of sites flagged as active phishing/malware. If a message links to one of these, it's a scam.

💡 Golden rule: any unexpected message with a link, a money request, or a code to "verify" deserves a Check here first. Real companies don't rush you, threaten you, or ask for gift cards.

🎯 Send a consented practice scam to a family member, then see if they'd have clicked — and coach them on the spot. It's the safe way to find out who's at risk before a real scammer does.

Each drill needs their okay first — GuardDex texts/emails them to confirm. Only members with 🎯 OK to drill turned on in the Breach Monitor can be drilled. Start one with the 🎯 Drill button on any scam in Browse.
