Frequently asked questions

What is Truecaller’s Scam Checker tool?
Scam Checker is a free tool from Truecaller that lets you check whether a phone number or URL is likely to be safe or risky to engage with. In addition, Scam Checker also allows you to search for any type of scam and read posts by users who have encountered that scam or fallen victim to it. Just search, and we'll show you a result based on our global scam database along with the related community posts.
What can I check on Scam Checker?
You can look up phone numbers, URLs (web links), and common scam types on Scam Checker.
Is Scam Checker free to use?
Yes, Scam Checker is free for everyone, whether or not you have a Truecaller account.
Do I need a Truecaller account to use Scam Checker?
No, you do not need a Truecaller account to use Scam Checker. You can search and view Safe/ Potential Fraud results for both phone numbers and URLs without logging in. However, if you need additional information about the phone number, for example the name associated with the phone number, you will need the Truecaller app on your phone.
What's the difference between Scam Checker and Truecaller's regular phone lookup?
Scam Checker is a fraud detection tool for users who want to know if a phone number or URL is trying to scam them. It can provide them information about the Potential Fraud/ Safe status for the search as well as related posts made by Truecaller users for the same or similar phone number/ URL or scam type. It is free to use and does not require a Truecaller account. Truecaller’s free phone number search, on the other hand, provides more detailed information, including the name associated with the phone number. However, you need to login with your Truecaller account to view these details.
