Worldwide & multi-language: patterns cover global scams (delivery, banks, gift cards, crypto, tech support) and brands used in many countries (DHL, Royal Mail, HMRC, CRA, Revolut, WhatsApp, Amazon regional sites). We also match common urgency phrases in Spanish, French, and Portuguese. Full UI and explanations are still in English — paste any language; English and cross-border scripts score best today.
Scammers are betting you react before you think. Pasting it here is the pause that protects you — you get the answer in seconds, and either way you walk away sure instead of anxious.
