What the public page does not do

The public page does not automate WhatsApp, message strangers, verify phone-number ownership, or pretend to identify the sender. It prepares the suspicious text for a user-reviewed WhatsApp draft.

It cannot confirm the real sender behind a phone number.
It cannot inspect media files on this public page.
A message can be risky even if it uses polished language.

Safer next steps

Do not reply with OTPs, UPI PINs, passwords, card details, Aadhaar, or PAN.
Do not install APKs or remote-access apps from a chat request.
Forward the suspicious item to Kaval on WhatsApp for a deeper product check.

Questions people ask

Can I check a WhatsApp forward without opening the link?

Yes. Paste the text and URL as received. Kaval can flag suspicious wording and URL signals before you click anything.

What is the fastest rule for WhatsApp scams?

If the message asks for an OTP, UPI PIN, APK install, remote-access app, urgent payment, or login through a link, stop and verify through an official channel.
