Answers to common questions. If yours isn't here, write to us below.

Is Is It? free?

Yes. No account, no ads, no paid tier.

Do you keep what I paste?

No. Messages, questions and links are checked and then discarded. We keep counts of what kinds of things people check, never the words. You can choose to share one message, with personal details removed, to help warn others.

Can it be wrong?

Yes. It catches common scams well, but no checker is perfect. If money or a loved one is involved, call them back on a number you already have.

I already paid a scammer. What now?

Call your bank's fraud line using the number on your card, then report it at reportfraud.ftc.gov and ic3.gov. Ignore anyone offering to recover your money for a fee. Type "I got scammed" on the home page for the full first-hour plan.

Where does the attack data come from?

CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, vendor advisories and Cloudflare Zero Wire. Social data comes from LunarCrush.

Who makes Is It?

LunarCrush, Inc., the social data company behind LunarCrush and Sonar.
