Crypto Scam Message Detector
Scam and phishing detection for crypto wallets, trading bots and social agents: check a DM, cast, tweet, email or comment before your agent or user acts on it. Returns a verdict safe, suspicious or scam, a 0 to 100 risk score, the scam type (wallet drainer, fake airdrop, phishing login, impersonation, seed phrase theft, fake support, giveaway doubling, investment fraud, pig butchering, malware), red flags with exact quotes, and advice. Every link is checked for real: domain age and registration via RDAP, look-alike domains of 40 known brands (uniswap-claims.xyz, rnetamask.io), punycode and link shorteners. Fixed checks can only raise the verdict, so a message that tries to talk the classifier into "safe" still gets flagged. Claude Haiku 5.5. Up to 8,000 characters; optional sender and channel.
