Scam detection
Looks for known scam playbooks: fake urgency, cloned brands, impossible pricing, and pressure tactics designed to skip due diligence.
Fraud detection
Flags payment abuse patterns, short-lived storefront signatures, descriptor mismatches, and infrastructure that often shows up in fraud rings.
Reviews & reputation
Aggregates public review sentiment and watches for inflated, duplicated, or oddly perfect ratings that do not match complaint volume.
Billing & subscriptions
Surfaces auto-renew traps, free-trial-to-paid flips, hidden fees, and cancellation friction buried in checkout flows.
Terms & refunds
Reads return windows, restocking fees, and one-sided clauses that quietly limit your rights after you pay.
Privacy & data
Checks what the site claims to collect, share, and retain — and whether those claims line up with how the site actually behaves.
Business identity
Looks for who is behind the domain: company naming, ownership cues, contactability, and whether the brand looks newly invented.
Legal & regulatory mentions
Scans for licensing language, consumer-protection complaints, and public legal mentions tied to the business.
Security beyond the padlock
Goes past HTTPS into hosting patterns, technical red flags, and infrastructure traits common to disposable scam shops.
Multi-model synthesis
Routes the same site through many frontier AI models, then reconciles agreement and disagreement into one plain-English verdict.
EyeQ output is AI-generated guidance from public signals and pattern detection. It is not a legal verdict, financial advice, or a guarantee of any outcome.
Scam detection
EyeQ looks for social-engineering patterns: countdown pressure, brand impersonation, “too good to be true” pricing, thin policies, and storefronts that appear to exist mainly to collect payment details.
Fraud detection
EyeQ also watches for fraud infrastructure: brand-new domains running paid ads, weak business identity, payment and descriptor mismatches, and complaint patterns that show up before official blacklists catch up.
Pattern specialists
- Models tuned to spot scam scripts, fake urgency, and storefront templates reused across fraud campaigns.
Policy readers
- Models that dig into terms, refunds, privacy language, and the gaps between what the page promises and what the fine print allows.
Reputation scanners
- Models that weigh reviews, forums, and public mentions to separate real customer signal from manufactured praise.
Consensus layer
- Where models agree, confidence rises. Where they disagree, EyeQ surfaces the conflict instead of hiding it behind a fake certainty score.
Paste any website
Drop in a storefront, landing page, checkout link, or brand domain. No account needed to start a first read.
EyeQ analyzes in parallel
Scam detection, fraud signals, reviews, billing terms, identity, security, and multiple AI models run together — not as separate tools you have to stitch by hand.
Get a plain-English verdict
A trust score, clear findings, and the why behind them — so you can pay, walk away, or dig deeper with confidence.
Before first-time checkout
Confirm the store looks real, the refund path is fair, and the brand is not a disposable scam shell.
After a suspicious ad or DM
Ads and social links are where cloned shops thrive. Check the destination before you enter payment details.
When prices look impossible
Extreme discounts are a classic lure. EyeQ helps separate a genuine deal from a fraud funnel.
Before starting a subscription
Catch auto-renew traps, trial-to-paid flips, and cancellation friction before the first charge hits.
What does the website scam checker look at?
EyeQ gathers public signals about the URL you submit: scam and fraud patterns, reviews and complaints, billing and refund language, privacy terms, business identity, legal mentions, and security cues. Multiple AI models review those signals, then ShouldEye returns a trust score with source-aware findings you can read before you pay.
How is this different from a malware or SSL checker?
Malware and SSL tools answer a narrow technical question — is the connection encrypted, and is the domain on a known-bad list? ShouldEye asks whether the business behind the site looks trustworthy: scam tactics, billing traps, fake reviews, missing identity, and policy risk included.
Can a website be secure and still be a scam?
Yes. Many scam shops use valid HTTPS and clean malware scans while misrepresenting products, hiding fees, or never shipping orders. Technical security is necessary — it is not enough on its own.
What scam patterns does EyeQ try to catch?
Common signals include pressure tactics, brand cloning, disposable domains, weak ownership, complaint clusters, and payment-abuse cues that often show up before official blacklists update. Absence of history can matter too — a brand-new storefront with thin identity is not treated as a blank slate.
Why use more than one AI model on a single URL?
One model can miss a billing clause another catches, or over-trust a polished storefront. ShouldEye runs several models, compares where they agree and disagree, and surfaces that disagreement in the report so you are not relying on a single AI opinion.
Do I need to pay to check a website?
You can run a first website check without buying a separate scanner subscription. Creating an account unlocks deeper findings, saved history, and monitoring options when you want to watch a site over time.
What if the site is brand new and has no reviews?
Missing reviews are treated as a signal, not a dead end. EyeQ still weighs domain age, identity strength, policy quality, and infrastructure patterns so a new site gets a meaningful read instead of an empty result.
Is the report a final legal verdict?
No. EyeQ provides AI guidance from public signals and multi-model analysis. It is not a legal verdict, guarantee, or substitute for your own judgment on high-value purchases. We do not sell the URLs you check as lead lists — see our privacy policy for details.
Paste a URL. Check if the site is legit.
