You come across an irresistible sales ad when browsing social media but can’t decide if the deal is legitimate. Perhaps you want to know if the investment opportunity that was sent to you is a trap. Or perhaps you receive text messages asking you to update the billing info for an app you use… or to track a package for something you’ve purchased online… or to donate to a charity you have helped before.

All these are plausibly innocent, but how can you know for sure? Scam attempts are a constant threat, especially when you are busy and distracted. And it’s loved ones too — elderly parents, for example — who are also at risk. With $2.74 billion lost to scams last year (ACCC), it’s in moments like these we need solutions quickly and easily.

How Does Trend Micro Check Work?

Scam Check

Whether it’s an ad, website, or message, Scam Check can help you immediately verify if it is a scam — all you have to do is share the content with our app, and we’ll do the rest.

Leveraging the power of AI, Scam Check goes beyond spotting common red flags to uncover those tricky, less obvious signs of scams. It makes an assessment based on the context, intent and security risks of the content, and provides results in seconds — along with suggestions for next steps to help you stay safe.

Deepfake Scan

Video calls can be deceptive. With deepfake technology, scammers can impersonate anyone — with it getting harder and harder to tell if you are talking to a real person. But with Deepfake Scan, you can stay ahead of deepfakes by being alerted in real-time to any AI face-swapping attempts during your video calls!

Just turn on Deepfake Scan during your call to start inspecting! Read this article for a full tutorial on how to turn on Deepfake Scan on Android and iOS.

Web Guard

Worried about scam websites? Web Guard is at your service to provide safe, ad-free browsing. With the Web Guard feature enabled, you’ll be safe from risky websites and annoying ads so you can surf the web without worry or hassle.

SMS Filter

SMS Filter is your reliable tool to block spam and scam texts 24/7 before they hit your inbox. Cut the noise, reduce the risks!
