The Phishy Scam Index

Every message checked with the free Phishy checker is counted โ€” fully anonymously โ€” by the organisation it impersonates. The result is a live picture of who scammers pretend to be, straight from people's phones. The data is free to use and cite (CC BY 4.0) and updates daily.

What is counted โ€” and what is not

Stored: the date, the verdict (safe / suspicious / scam), a label for the impersonated organisation, the interface language, and the visitor's country. Not stored: the message text, the link inside it, IP address, name, phone number or any other identifier. No row in this table can be traced back to a person โ€” not even by us. The organisation is detected in memory during the check, and only the label is kept.
