RakshaLink: Scam Detector

Scam message or suspicious call? RakshaLink helps you pause, check and verify before you tap a link, make a payment, share an OTP or install an app.

RakshaLink checks supported notification previews—including previews from WhatsApp, SMS, RCS and Telegram—when Android makes them available. It warns you when content resembles common Indian scams such as digital arrest, fake KYC updates, UPI fraud, fake refunds, courier traps, risky APK links and OTP theft.

Check before you act

• Get alerts for suspicious notification previews
• Use Paste & Check for suspicious text, links or UPI IDs
• Check payment QR codes before you pay
• Start Suspicious Call SOS while a suspicious call is active
• Review scan history with clear reasons and safer next steps
• Use Family Protection for opt-in alerts between trusted people
• View a weekly protection summary

Suspicious Call SOS

Start SOS while a suspicious call is active. RakshaLink does not record or listen to calls. It watches for scam related notifications and actions visible through the protection features you have enabled, then shows practical safety steps.

Private by design

• Routine notification analysis happens on your device
• Private message content is not uploaded to the cloud for scanning
• No SMS permission
• No contacts permission
• No call-log permission
• No ads
• We do not sell your data
• Optional feedback is redacted before it is used to improve detection

Why Notification Access is needed

Android Notification Access lets RakshaLink read the previews shown by supported apps so it can check them for scam shaped content and warn you. It does not give RakshaLink access to your complete chat history or permission to send messages.

What RakshaLink can see depends on your Android version, device settings and the notification preview each app provides.

Built for common Indian scam patterns

RakshaLink checks for warning signs associated with:

• Digital arrest and fake police, CBI or legal threats
• KYC fraud and fake bank verification
• UPI fraud, collect requests and fake refunds
• OTP theft and WhatsApp account takeover attempts
• Parcel and courier scams
• Suspicious APK or remote-access app links
• Investment, job and quick-income scams
• Screen-sharing and call-forwarding fraud

Core and Pro features

Core protection includes notification checks, Paste & Check, QR checks, scan history and basic family protection.

RakshaLink Pro adds deeper family coordination, recurring debit insights and downloadable monthly protection reports.

Honest, practical alerts

RakshaLink can make mistakes. A risky result may sometimes be genuine, and a no-warning result is not a guarantee of safety. Always verify requests involving money, OTPs, personal information, remote access or legal threats through official channels.

RakshaLink provides scam warnings and verification guidance. It does not replace your bank, police, telecom provider or government authorities.
