TrustGuard - Email Scam Detector by jgotcher

TrustGuard is your second pair of eyes on every email.

Scammers don’t need to hack your computer. They trick people into clicking bad links, sending money, or sharing passwords. TrustGuard helps you slow down, spot the warning signs, and make a safer decision — before it’s too late.

WHY PEOPLE INSTALL TRUSTGUARD

• Automatic protection — scans emails as you read them, no extra steps
• Plain English — tells you what’s wrong and what to do next (no jargon)
• Color-coded risk — green, yellow, orange, or red at a glance
• Action warnings — alerts before you click links, reply, download attachments, or call numbers in risky emails
• Built for real people — simple, readable, and designed with older adults and families in mind

HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. Open your email in Gmail or Yahoo Mail
2. TrustGuard analyzes the message on your device

You stay in control. TrustGuard explains the risk — you decide what to do.

TrustGuard is a safety assistant, not a guarantee. Always use your own judgment before sending money or sharing personal information. When in doubt, contact the company or person directly using a phone number or website you find yourself — not one from the email.

Install TrustGuard and read your email with more confidence.
