safe, suspicious, or scam with explanation
Your spam filter is losing the battle.
AI-generated phishing is now harder to separate from real email. Older tools were not built for this — and users are left guessing.
They know your name, events, and contacts
Attackers use public information to create emails that feel familiar and personal.
Your spam filter lets some through
Scam messages can have clean grammar, normal formatting, and no obvious keywords.
The sender looks real — but the domain is a trap
Look-alike domains are designed to make fake emails feel trustworthy.

"Your Amazon order has been cancelled"
amazon-support@amzn-help-center.net
RISK SCORE
96 / 100
TECHNICAL RED FLAGS
Sender domain amzn-help-center.net is not an official Amazon domain. Amazon only sends from amazon.com or amazon.ca. The domain is built to look like an Amazon support address but does not belong to Amazon.
SOCIAL ENGINEERING
Urgency trap. The subject line creates immediate panic about a cancelled order. The goal is to make you click before you check the sender address.
DELETE IMMEDIATELY. Do not click any links. If you are worried about your Amazon order, log in directly at amazon.com in a new browser tab.
"Re: Following up on our conversation"
david.harris@businessgrowthpro.io
RISK SCORE
71 / 100
TECHNICAL RED FLAGS
The Re: prefix implies an ongoing conversation but there is no matching sent email in your history. The domain businessgrowthpro.io is a generic lead-generation domain that does not clearly correspond to a known company.
SOCIAL ENGINEERING
Familiarity trick. Using Re: makes your brain categorize this as a safe continuing conversation. It is designed to bypass your skepticism before you read a single word.
DO NOT REPLY. Responding confirms your email is active and monitored. You will receive more targeted messages. Mark as spam and delete.
"Your receipt from Stripe"
receipt+xxxx@stripe.com
RISK SCORE
4 / 100
TECHNICAL RED FLAGS
Sender domain stripe.com matches Stripe's official domain. No redirect links detected. All links point to stripe.com.
SOCIAL ENGINEERING
No psychological pressure tactics detected. No urgency language. No requests for credentials. Consistent with standard transactional receipts.
SAFE. This is a legitimate transactional email from Stripe. No action needed.

Is my email data stored?+
InboxVerdict does not save the email text you submit in your analysis record. Screenshots you upload are stored on our platform's file storage so they can be analyzed, and may remain there because we do not currently have a tool to delete them from storage. Your submitted text is used to generate your verdict in real time and is not kept in the analysis record.
