The invoice looked right. The GSTIN checked out. The money is gone.
That’s how it happens. Not with a virus, but with an email that looks exactly like your supplier’s. ScamShield AI checks the message, the link, the UPI ID or the payment screenshot before you act on it. Verdict in under 3 seconds. Works in Hindi and Gujarati too.
No virus, no hacker in a hoodie. Just an email, a screenshot or a phone call that looks completely normal, until the money’s gone.
A demand notice arrives with a reference number, a deadline and a penalty clause. Your CA is travelling. Paying feels safer than ignoring it.

ScamShield AI checks a sender email or UPI handle against 10,000+ known India fraud patterns and returns a risk score with reason codes. Paste one below.
Forward it, paste it, or connect your inbox, whichever fits how the scam reached you. Same engine, same three seconds, five ways in.
Your team forwards a suspicious message to ScamShield AI on WhatsApp, and a verdict comes back in the same chat. No app to install, nothing to learn. If your staff can forward a message, they can use it.
Most scams reach an Indian business on WhatsApp first. A “KYC expired” link, a forwarded GST notice, a payment screenshot from a buyer. So that is where the answer should be too. Forward the message and a verdict comes back in the same thread within seconds, giving the scam type, a risk score, and one line saying why. Nothing is installed on anyone’s phone, and your sender number is stored only as a keyed hash, never in plain text. We set your team up on WhatsApp during onboarding.
Every inbound email is scored against 10,000+ India fraud patterns, covering GSTIN impersonation, fake GST notices and supplier BEC attacks, before it reaches your team.
Business email fraud is one of the fastest-growing threats for Indian traders and manufacturers. Fraudsters clone supplier email addresses down to the last character, update NEFT account details in a forged email, and collect payment before the accounts team notices the difference. ScamShield AI scans every incoming email for spoofed domains, lookalike sender addresses, and suspicious payment instruction changes before money leaves your account.
ScamShield AI detects CBI, ED and IT department impersonation scams. Upload a suspicious call recording and it flags synthetic-voice patterns of the kind used in digital arrest and fake bank officer fraud, and checks the call against a live database of known digital arrest scripts before any transfer is made.
Digital arrest scams accounted for an estimated 9% of total cybercrime losses in India in 2025. Fraudsters impersonating CBI, ED, Customs, or TRAI officers use fabricated police station backdrops and AI-generated voice clones to pressure business owners into transferring large sums.
ScamShield AI runs forensic checks on payment screenshots and QR codes to detect image manipulation within seconds, and flags UPI VPAs linked to known fraud networks before an order is marked as fulfilled. Our forensics engine catches manipulated transaction confirmations before money leaves your account.
13.42 lakh UPI fraud cases and ₹1,087 crore in losses were recorded in India in FY24, per data shared in Parliament by the Finance Ministry. Fake UPI payment screenshots have become one of the most common tools used to deceive shopkeepers, distributors, and service providers across India. A seller dispatches goods based on a screenshot. The payment never arrives. ScamShield AI adds reputation scoring on UPI handles and VPAs, plus AI detection of fake payment screenshots.
ScamShield AI cross-references GST notices, GSTIN lookups and income tax demand letters against known fraud templates and spoofed government domains. It checks a GSTIN's structure, flags mismatches against the business name and state code you were given, and checks income tax correspondence for forged CBDT reference numbers.
In FY2025-26, Indian authorities uncovered over 24,000 cases of fake GST invoices with suspected bogus billing worth ₹58,772 crore, per data shared in Rajya Sabha. Genuine businesses transacting with fraudulent vendors face GST demand notices and ITC reversals they did nothing to cause. Live registry verification is coming.

For years in the UK, I worked in cybersecurity and digital forensics. On the side, I volunteered with The Cyber Helpline, talking to people after they’d been scammed.
Those calls stayed with me. By the time someone reaches out for help, their money is already gone. You can hear it in their voice, the moment they realize it’s not coming back. I got good at helping people through that. What I wanted was to stop it before it happened.
So I moved back to Ahmedabad. India’s SMEs, the trading firms, the manufacturers, the CA firms managing dozens of clients, are facing the same fraud I studied for years in the UK. Except here it moves faster, it comes in more languages, and almost nothing has been built to catch it.
I didn’t want to keep answering the phone after the damage was done. I wanted to build something that answers before it happens.
That’s ScamShield AI.

Common questions from Indian SME owners and CA firms about ScamShield AI
ScamShield AI uses Error Level Analysis (ELA), OCR text extraction, and image metadata forensics to identify manipulated screenshots.

Results are returned in under 3 seconds.
Yes. Paste a GSTIN and ScamShield AI validates its structure and checks it for mismatches against the business name and state code you were given, so a fabricated or altered number is flagged before you pay.

Each client's data is kept strictly separate. The platform flags suspicious payment instructions, fake tax notices, and vendor fraud attempts across all connected client accounts automatically.
A digital arrest scam is a fraud where criminals impersonating CBI, ED, TRAI, or Customs officers contact victims over video call, claim they are under investigation, and demand immediate fund transfers to avoid a false arrest. No such concept as digital arrest exists in Indian law. ScamShield AI maintains a live taxonomy of known digital arrest call scripts and caller ID spoofing patterns to help businesses identify these threats before any transfer is made.
Our servers and database run on Microsoft Azure Central India infrastructure. Two things are processed outside India, as our privacy policy sets out: masked message content sent to Anthropic for Component D scanning, and transactional emails such as threat alerts, delivered through Resend.
