Privacy
Nothing you enter is sent anywhere or saved. The check runs in your browser and is cleared when you press Start over or close this page.
What happens to what you type
In this page's memory only, until you press Start over or close or reload the page.
If you add a screenshot, the picture is read on your device and is never uploaded.
The first question asks who this is about: you, or someone you're helping. That choice only changes the wording on this page. We never ask who the other person is or anything about them. It is not kept, sent or put in the address, and it is gone when you press Start over or close the tab.
A button at the top asks whether it is happening right now. If you open it, you pick one of five situations and the page shows what to do. That choice is not kept, sent or put in the address, and it is gone when you close the panel, press Start over or close the tab.
One of the yes or no questions under the answer asks "Did you give personal details?". It is only Yes or No. We never ask for the number or any detail itself, and there is no box to type one. The answer is not kept, sent or put in the address, and it is gone when you press Start over or close the tab.
What we do not use
- No tracking cookies and no browser storage of anything you type. The one thing kept in your browser is your language choice (Español or English), in a small cookie.
- No server that receives your text. The check runs in your browser and never sends what you typed.
What we count
We count, per day, how many people visit, run a check and open their plan, how many checks we judged a scam, and whether each check was in English or Spanish. We never record what you typed, your IP address, or anything that could identify you. The count has no cookies.
The practice page keeps no score and sends nothing.
The packet you can download
The result contains redacted text findings only; the original text is not repeated in it. The file is saved to your own device by your own browser. Delete it when you are done, and do not leave it on a shared or work computer.
What the host can see
The page is served by a hosting company. Like any website host, it keeps standard request logs: your IP address, the time and the page you asked for. It never receives what you typed, because that never leaves your browser. Text you send here from your phone's Share menu is the one thing that needs care: a small helper program on your device (a service worker) answers that request itself, so the shared words are not sent to the host, and the helper stores nothing. The very first time, before the helper has started, the Share menu opens the page with the words in the address and the host's log could record them. If that worries you, paste the message instead of sharing it.

What this is, and what it is not
Scammer Payback never offers recovery services, never recovers money, never investigates cases, never represents anyone, and never handles cases. This tool is free, and no one here will ask you for payment.
Anyone who contacts you offering to get your money back is not us. Report them.
