Welcome to ScamBrief!

We’re so glad you’re here.

If you signed up, there’s probably a reason. Maybe you got a weird text last week and weren’t sure what to do. Maybe you’re the person your parents call when something on their phone “doesn’t look right.”

Either way, you’re in the right place.

ScamBrief exists for one simple reason: to help you spot scams before you click, call back, or send money you’ll never see again.

We’re not here to scare you with statistics. You already know scams are a problem. That’s why you signed up. What we will do is break down exactly how these schemes work. In plain English. Every week.

Here’s what you can expect from us:

The newest scam making the rounds. And exactly what to look for.

Real messages people have flagged. Analyzed so you can see why they’re dangerous.

Simple patterns scammers use over and over. Because once you see them, you can’t unsee them.

Think of it like having a friend who knows every trick in the book. No jargon. No lectures. Just useful stuff you can actually use.

Here’s the thing about scams: they’re not random.

They follow patterns. They use the same pressure tactics. They target the same emotions: urgency, fear, trust.

Once you recognize these patterns, spotting a scam gets a lot easier. That’s what we’re here to help you do. Not to make you paranoid about every email or text. Just to give you the tools to know when something’s off.

And when you’re not sure? That’s what ScamRank is for.

ScamRank is our free tool that checks any text, email, or screenshot in seconds. Paste it in, and you get a clear Trust Signal (green, yellow, or red) plus a plain-English explanation of what we found.

No guessing. No frantic Googling.

We're putting the finishing touches on it now, and we'd love for you to be one of the first to try it. Sign up for early access at ScamRank.com/beta and you'll be first in line when we launch.

Next week, we'll dig into the #1 text scam hitting phones right now. And we'll show you exactly how to spot it.

Until then, trust your gut. And when in doubt, check the ScamRank Signal.
