Yes. Every check gives a free preview with the risk level, one or two key reasons and a count of what was checked in each area. The full report with every finding, source and explanation is paid.

Does PayOrScam tell me if a company is a scam?

No. We never label a company a scam. We show warning signs and good signs, each with its source, so you can make an informed decision and verify it yourself.

The company on official registers (e.g. Companies House, SEC EDGAR, GLEIF), its directors and owners, sanctions lists, the website's age, hosting and certificates, the email domain, the phone number, bank details, the document's arithmetic and metadata, logos and signatures (reverse image search), regulator warning lists, phishing lists, reviews and news.

Do you store my invoice?

No. Uploaded files are processed in memory and not stored. Images may be held in memory for a few minutes only to run a reverse image search. The resulting report is kept for 30 days and then deleted.

Is a 'Low' risk result a guarantee?

No. Fraudsters copy real invoices and change only the bank details. Always confirm bank details by phone using a number you already trust.

I've already paid a suspicious invoice. What now?

Call your bank immediately and ask them to recall the payment, then report it: in the US to ReportFraud.ftc.gov and the FBI's IC3, in the UK to Action Fraud.

My business appears in a report and something is wrong. What can I do?

Use the Contact & disputes page. We review corrections and fix or remove information that's wrong.

Before you pay, check it.

Upload an invoice or paste a link, company or email. We check the document and the company behind it, then tell you why it looks risky or genuine.
