Fake SMS"Your bank account will be blocked"

Fake SMS
Phone Fraud"I am calling from your bank. Share your OTP."
Fraudsters pose as bank staff or government officers and pressure you into sharing OTPs or PINs.
No bank, government office, or company ever asks for your OTP.
Fake Prize"You won an iPhone! Pay Rs 499 to claim it."
If you did not enter a contest, you did not win anything. Paying to claim a prize is always a scam.
You never need to pay money to receive a real prize.

Loved by early users
People trust us to keep them a step ahead of scammers.
Real reactions from beta testers, pilot partners, and everyday people who dodged a scam with TrustByt.
"TrustByt flagged a fake seller before I wired the deposit. It genuinely saved me from losing two months of savings."
"We piloted the API for merchant onboarding. Impersonation attempts dropped sharply and the audit trail made compliance trivial."
"The phishing analyzer is scary-good. It explained exactly why an email was fake in language my parents could understand."
"As a small marketplace we can't staff a fraud team. TrustByt gives us enterprise-grade signals through a single endpoint."
"The trust score is fast enough to run at checkout without users ever noticing a delay. That's the hard part they nailed."
"Refreshing to see a security product that's transparent about how it scores. Every decision is explainable and reproducible."

Mission: Making India safer online
I started my cybersecurity journey in 8th grade when I was learning the basics of computers. One day, I heard the word "hacking," and it instantly made me curious about the world of cybersecurity.
To explore this field, I joined a state-recognized course by MKCL, where I learned the fundamentals of cybersecurity for the first time. Over the next few years, I earned certifications from global organizations such as Cisco, EC-Council, and Edunox, along with many others.
My vision is to help make India safer on the internet by spreading cybersecurity awareness and protecting innocent people from scammers and online threats.
Thank you for being a part of my journey.

FAQ
Questions you'd ask
in a security review.
TrustByt is an early-stage concept product. The free URL checker, email analyzer, and scam-awareness quiz on this page work in your browser using offline heuristics, so you can try them now. The full AI engine is still in development.
TrustByt is built by Satvik Yerkalwar — a 15-year-old cybersecurity student from Nagpur, India. He holds certifications from Cisco, EC-Council, MKCL, and Edunox.
The current version is a demo that uses common-sense rules — domain age patterns, lookalike spellings, known scam keywords. It's a helpful first check, not a guarantee. Always trust your gut and call the real bank or brand if in doubt.
No. Every tool on this page runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you paste leaves your device.
Call India's official cybercrime helpline 1930 immediately and file a complaint at cybercrime.gov.in. The faster you report, the higher the chance your money can be frozen.
Share these tools with your parents and grandparents. Join the beta. Send feedback. Real reviews from real users matter more than anything else right now.
