Safety & Security Information — ScamMukt

ScamMukt provides scam-awareness resources and AI-assisted phishing and scam detection tools designed to help users stay safer online. We take safety seriously across our website, tools, and any apps or extensions.

1. How ScamMukt Helps Keep You Safe

ScamMukt is designed to help you understand and avoid:

  • Fake banking and payment links
  • Malicious login or credential-stealing pages
  • Fraudulent SMS (smishing) URLs and messaging scams
  • Scam websites impersonating brands, government entities, or institutions
  • Phishing attempts embedded in emails, documents, or web pages
  • Links that redirect to harmful or suspicious destinations

Where supported (such as in ScamMukt’s tools, apps, or extensions), you may see safety alerts or warnings about potentially risky links or patterns, so that you can pause and review before proceeding.

2. On-Device and Privacy-Focused Processing

To support both safety and privacy, ScamMukt is built with the following principles:

  • Where possible, detection logic runs on-device or within your browser/app environment.
  • We avoid collecting more data than necessary to provide scam and phishing detection.
  • We do not sell your data or use it for third-party advertising or cross-site tracking.
  • Any limited logging is used to protect the Service (e.g., rate limiting, abuse detection) and improve safety, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Your sensitive information should stay under your control. For more details on what we collect and how, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

3. Data Minimization & No Unnecessary Collection

ScamMukt is designed to operate with minimal personal data:

We do not use our tools, apps, or extensions to collect:

  • Your full browsing history
  • The full content of webpages you visit, beyond what is needed for a visible feature
  • Form inputs, passwords, or payment card details
  • Your messages, SMS content, or personal chats
  • Detailed profiles of your online behavior for advertising

We may process:

  • URLs, documents, and related signals you actively submit to ScamMukt’s tools
  • Limited technical and security data (such as IP address and logs) to protect our Service and users, as detailed in our Privacy Policy

We do not use this information for ad targeting or to sell to third parties.

4. Transparent App & Extension Behavior

For ScamMukt mobile apps and browser extensions (including Safari- or Chrome-style extensions), we design behavior to be transparent and safety-first:

ScamMukt apps and extensions:

  1. Access only the URLs or limited context necessary to perform scam or phishing checks.
  2. Do not read form inputs, passwords, or personal messages.
  3. Do not modify page content in deceptive ways.
  4. Do not track you across websites for advertising purposes.
  5. Do not share data with advertisers or data brokers.
  6. Do not send URL or detection results to third parties for ad targeting.

Any access requested by an app or extension is tied to clearly described features, and you can manage permissions in your device or browser settings.

5. Safety Warnings, Accuracy, and Limitations

While ScamMukt uses advanced analysis techniques, no tool is perfect.

You should always:

  • Treat all unexpected links, attachments, and requests with caution.
  • Double-check URLs, especially for banking, government, or financial services.
  • Avoid entering passwords or OTPs on unfamiliar or suspicious sites.
  • Use multi-factor authentication (MFA) wherever possible.

Our tools may occasionally:

  • Flag a legitimate site as suspicious (false positive), or
  • Miss a cleverly disguised malicious site or link (false negative).

ScamMukt is one layer of protection and does not replace your own judgment or broader cybersecurity measures.

6. Content Restrictions & User Conduct

You may not use ScamMukt to:

  • Circumvent cybersecurity policies or monitoring systems.
  • Aid or participate in illegal activities or fraudulent schemes.
  • Test or refine malicious content, phishing kits, or malware.
  • Misrepresent ScamMukt as a complete or guaranteed security solution.
  • Disable, bypass, or tamper with ScamMukt’s safety features.

We may restrict or terminate access to ScamMukt if we detect misuse or behavior that threatens others’ safety, as described in our Terms & Conditions.

7. Reporting Safety Concerns or Abusive Content

If you encounter:

  • Unsafe or suspicious behavior in or through ScamMukt, or
  • Content you believe violates our safety standards

please report it to us at:

ScamMukt — Safety & Security
Email: scammukt@gmail.com
Website: https://scammukt.com

We may use your reports to improve our tools, strengthen safety features, and share anonymized insights for public awareness.

8. Suitability for Families and General Audiences

ScamMukt is focused on scam awareness and digital safety. We do not provide:

  • Adult content
  • In-app advertising networks
  • User-generated social feeds or open chat

However, ScamMukt may discuss real-world scams, which can include mature themes (e.g., financial fraud, impersonation, online exploitation). Parents and guardians should decide what is appropriate for children and supervise use where needed.

Because we minimize data collection and avoid behavioral tracking, ScamMukt is generally suitable as part of a family’s digital safety toolkit, especially on managed or supervised devices.

9. Device-Level Security Recommendations

For best protection, we recommend:

  • Keeping your operating system, browser, and apps up to date.
  • Using strong, unique passwords and a reputable password manager.
  • Enabling multi-factor authentication (MFA) on important accounts.
  • Reviewing emails, SMS, and chat messages carefully before clicking any link.
  • Avoiding downloads from untrusted sources.

ScamMukt is a helpful assistant for scam awareness and link risk, but it is not a replacement for good security hygiene or professional cybersecurity tools.

10. Safety Notices in Tools, Apps, or Extensions

ScamMukt may display risk notices or warnings when:

  • A URL or document matches patterns commonly seen in scams or phishing.
  • A site or sender appears to impersonate a known institution or brand.
  • A link redirects unexpectedly to a suspicious or mismatched domain.
  • A domain or content structure appears unusual or risky based on heuristics.

You may choose to ignore a warning and proceed, but you do so at your own risk. We strongly recommend treating all warnings seriously and verifying independently before continuing.

11. If You Suspect You Are a Victim of a Scam

If you believe you have been targeted or harmed by a scam or phishing attack:

  • Contact your bank or financial institution immediately.
  • Change passwords on affected accounts and enable MFA.
  • Notify relevant platforms or service providers about the incident.
  • Report the scam to appropriate authorities or cyber cells in your country.
  • Consider running reputable antivirus or security scans if you suspect malware.

ScamMukt can help you understand and identify risks, but we do not provide legal, financial, or forensic recovery services.
