Second Look uses clear, published rules — not guesswork — so it can miss new tricks. When money, codes or passwords are involved, always check with the company or person using contact details you already trust.
How it works
1. Private by design. Your message is checked right here in your browser. There is no server, no account and no tracking.
2. Clear rules. Second Look looks for the tactics scammers rely on — rushing you, unusual payments, asking for codes, pretending to be someone, secrecy, threats and fake links.
3. Learn the pattern. Every warning points to the exact words, so next time you'll spot them yourself.
