Not sure if an email is a scam? Paste it in and learn to spot the tell-tale signs, so you and your team build the instinct to catch the next one yourselves.

What it is

A teaching tool that scans the text of an email for the classic warning signs of phishing: false urgency, requests to "verify" details, generic greetings, unusual payment demands, boss impersonation and hidden links. It explains each flag so the lesson sticks. It checks text only and runs entirely in your browser.

How to use it effectively

1. Paste the full email text. Include the greeting and any links as written. The more it has to read, the better it can flag.
2. Read each warning explained. Do not just look at the verdict. Understanding why something is suspicious is what trains your judgement.
3. Use it with your team. Run a few real examples in a team meeting. It is one of the fastest ways to raise everyone's guard.
4. When in doubt, verify separately. If an email asks for money or details, confirm by phoning the sender on a number you already trust, never one from the email.

Why it matters

Phishing is the single most common way attacks begin. Most ransomware, most fraud and most account takeovers start with one convincing email and one rushed click. Technology helps, but a team that can recognise the signs is the strongest filter you have. This tool builds that instinct.
