About LegitInformant
LegitInformant helps people check before they click, pay or trust — and helps businesses stop scammers who copy them.
Online fraud now costs consumers more than many violent crimes combined, and most victims never thought they would fall for it. Scams have moved from obvious emails to slick fake shops, toll texts, job "tasks", QR stickers and fake investment platforms. The tools to check them were scattered, opaque or built for security experts.
We built one place where anyone can paste a website, message, link, number or wallet and get a plain-English answer with the evidence behind it. Every consumer tool is free. Businesses fund the service by paying for brand-impersonation monitoring, verified badges and our API.
