Is this email address fake?

Check any sender address. We detect throwaway inboxes, brands impersonated from free providers, and domains that can't even receive mail.

Free · No signup · The result gets a shareable link

01How it works

01

Paste it

A link, a phone number, an email or an IBAN — whatever you were sent.

02

We cross-check it

Security blocklists, domain age, SSL, scam-prone prefixes and our own scam-report history — in parallel, in seconds.

03

You get a verdict

A clear risk score with the exact red flags, plus an optional AI deep-dive. Share the report link with whoever needs convincing.

02How fake emails give themselves away

Real companies write from their own domain: no bank sends payment alerts from a Gmail or Yahoo address. We flag brand names hiding in free-provider addresses ("bmce-support@gmail.com"), disposable inboxes that expire in minutes, and sender domains with no mail servers at all — a favourite trick in spoofed messages where the display address is pure decoration.

03Check the address, not the display name

Email apps show a friendly display name ("Amazon Support") that anyone can type. The only part that matters is the real address behind it — and even that can be spoofed in some cases. When an email pushes you to act urgently (a blocked account, a refund about to expire, a package held at customs), that urgency itself is the strongest red flag.

04If you already replied

Replying just tells the scammer the inbox is alive — stop responding and nothing more is lost. If you clicked a link and typed a password, change it now and enable two-factor authentication. If you shared card details, call your bank. Then check the sender here and share the report with anyone else who got the same email.

05Frequently asked questions

What does "disposable email" mean?

Services like Yopmail or Mailinator create inboxes that self-destruct in minutes. They're perfect for scammers who need a working address that can't be traced back. Any serious counterpart — employer, buyer, agency — has a durable address.

Why is a brand name on Gmail suspicious?

Because real companies use their own domain. "attijari.clients2026@gmail.com" isn't your bank — it's someone who typed a bank's name into a free signup form. That combination is one of the most reliable scam signals that exists.

Are the email addresses I check kept private?

Yes. Email reports are never indexed by search engines and live behind an unguessable link. We store only the address and its analysis so repeat checks are instant — email hello@digiscam.com for deletion.

The email came from the company's real domain. Safe?

Safer, but not proof: compromised mailboxes and technical spoofing exist. Judge the request too — unexpected payment-detail changes, gift-card demands and urgent confidential transfers are scams regardless of the sender.
