A live, searchable feed of community scam reports near you. Read what your neighbors have encountered, filter by scam type, engage anonymously, and help others stay safe.
Search reports by keyword or tap a category chip to filter: IRS, Bank Fraud, Package, Romance, Crypto, Tech Support, Medicare, Gift Card, and more. Combine search and filters for precise results.
Like a report to upvote it. Add a reaction — 😰 Helpful, 😱 Scary, 🙋 Happened to Me, or 📢 Spreading — to give more specific community feedback and surface the most relevant alerts.
Comment on any report to add context, share your own experience with the same scam, or ask questions. Comments are anonymous — no name or identifier is ever shown.
Flag inappropriate posts. After 3 flags, a report is automatically hidden pending human review. Our moderation system keeps the feed accurate and safe for everyone.
When someone comments on a report you submitted, you'll get a push notification so you can stay in the conversation and help other users who have questions.
Tap the profile icon to see your own reports, earned badges, Fraud Resilience Score breakdown, and your contribution to the community. Completely private — never visible to other users.
Have you ever almost fallen for a scam? Your experience could save someone else. The Confession Booth is a judgment-free space to share anonymous near-miss stories with your community.
No name, no email, no profile photo. Your post is stored with only an anonymous internal ID — never exposed publicly. We cannot link your post to your identity even if asked.
Posts are visible only to other MailShield users in your ZIP area. Your confession helps the neighbors who are most likely to encounter the same scam.
Short, focused, and easy to read. A character counter shows you how much space you have — and the post button unlocks when your story is ready.
Protecting yourself and your community earns recognition. Badges mark real milestones. Your Fraud Resilience Score tracks your overall engagement with fraud protection — and it grows every time you take action.
The community social features and the AI engine aren't separate. They feed each other. Community reports train better AI. AI analysis validates community reports. The result is protection that grows with every user.
Every scan, every community report, every confession, and every scam map dot contributes anonymized threat signals to a shared database. When a scam reaches one person, everyone else gets protected. The more people scan and report, the faster new threats are identified community-wide.
Every scan is analyzed by Claude AI, built by Anthropic — one of the world's leading AI safety companies. Claude classifies each threat in real time and continuously identifies newly emerging scam patterns, fraud tactics, and deceptive schemes — keeping the database current around the clock.
Community features are built from the ground up with anonymity as the default — not a setting you have to find and enable.
Community reports, confessions, and comments are never shown with your name, email, or any personal identifier. Your anonymous user ID is internal-only and never publicly visible.
Community features use only a ZIP code you provide. No GPS, no precise location, no street address is ever collected or stored.
Anonymous post text, scam type, ZIP area, likes, reactions, and comments. No names, no message content, no personal information.
Your actual scanned messages, email content, photos of mail, identity, or any personally identifiable information.
All community data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Firebase App Check ensures only the genuine MailShield app can read or write community data — no bots, no fake reports.
Automated profanity filtering, PII redaction, and 3-flag auto-hide keep the community feed accurate and safe. Our moderation team reviews flagged content promptly.
"Every scan you run protects you — and quietly makes it harder for scammers to reach anyone else."
Join a community that gets stronger every day. Protection that compounds, automatically.
