AI Image Detector
Detect AI-generated images used in scam profiles

Why check for AI images?

Scammers use AI-generated photos to create fake profiles on dating sites, social media, and marketplaces. These fake identities are used in romance scams, job scams, and investment fraud.

Upload a photo you received or take a screenshot of a suspicious profile

Important Note

No AI detection is 100% accurate. AI technology is constantly improving, making detection harder. Always use this as one tool among many - if something feels wrong, trust your instincts and verify through video calls or other means.

Remember These Golden Rules

Take Your Time

Scammers create urgency. Real organisations give you time to think.

Keep Details Private

Never share passwords, PINs, or bank details over the phone or email.

Ask Someone You Trust

If unsure, talk to a family member or friend before taking action.

Trust Your Instincts

If something feels wrong, it probably is. Do not be afraid to say no.
