Give it a shopping site's URL or an ad/deal you're suspicious of and get back a scam-risk assessment: a real domain-registration-age check (not a model guess), matched red-flag patterns, a confidence rating, and the source URLs behind every claim. Runs live Google Search grounding through Gemini for every request.

What you can use this for

  • Shoppers — a sanity check before entering payment details on an unfamiliar store, especially from a social-media ad.
  • Ad platforms / marketplaces — an automated screening layer for suspicious storefronts before they run ads or list products.
  • Consumer-protection tools / browser extensions — a backend for a "check this store" feature.

Why this one's different

Most "is this a scam" tools ask an LLM to guess. This one does a real RDAP domain-registration lookup on the store's URL — a brand-new domain (under ~90 days old) selling physical goods is one of the single strongest, most objective scam-storefront signals there is, and it's a hard fact this Actor actually checks rather than asking the model to estimate.

Input

FieldDescriptionDefault
storeDescriptionDescribe the store, product, and deal (or paste the ad text)a classic fake-flash-sale example

storeNameStore/brand name (optional)
platformWhere you saw it, e.g. Instagram ad (optional)

Every field has a working default — hit Start with no changes and you'll get a result.
