Forward a message you're unsure about. Zala Secure checks who really sent it, where its links actually go and what they ask you for — then tells you what to do.
On Telegram or in your browser. Forward it, paste it, or send a screenshot. English and Arabic. It asks which country you live in before the first check, and is not offered in the EU, the EEA, the UK or Switzerland.

Treat this as an attempt to take money or credentials.
▸ The link ends at a throwaway address anyone can open in seconds without a name — no company sends its customers to one.
Microsoft Safe Links had rewritten this link. I checked where it really goes, not the rewritten address.

How it works
Forward the SMS, email or WhatsApp message to the bot, paste the text, or send a screenshot.
Who really sent it, every link to its final destination, known scam lists, what the page asks you to type, and how it's worded.
The reasons behind it, where the link really goes, and what to do — including what to do if you already clicked or paid.
What it checks
A scam can copy a logo and a tone of voice. It is much harder to fake where a message came from and where its link ends up — so that is what decides a warning.
Follows redirects to the final page, unwraps links rewritten by Outlook Safe Links and other mail filters, and flags throwaway hosting.
PhishTank, Phishing.Database and Google Web Risk — each reported on its own.
Whether the sender's domain signs its mail, whether a brand's name comes from that brand's own domain, and whether replies are being moved to a free inbox.
How old the domain is, when its first certificate appeared, and look-alike or hidden characters built to fool the eye.
Card numbers, security codes, passwords, one-time codes — shown plainly before you decide to type anything.
Which organisations you usually hear from, so it can tell you when a "known" sender isn't who it claims to be.

Zala Secure's checks and storage run in the European Union. Messages reach it through Telegram.
Honest about its limits
A green result means none of its checks found anything — not that a message is safe. New scams appear every day, and some will get past any tool.
If money or an account is involved, confirm with the organisation using a number you already have — not one in the message.
