Truecaller launched Scam Checker on September 27, 2026 — a web and Android service for checking suspicious phone numbers, links, or messages against its ScamFeed database without app or sign-in.
India launch context: Truecaller faces pressure from government-backed Calling Name Presentation and Apple/Google native spam features. India’s telecom regulator ordered caller-ID apps to share user spam reports with operators — a move Truecaller criticized as one-way exchange.
Scale: ~20,000 live ScamFeed reports in India; ~1,300 new weekly. Between September 14-20, Truecaller evaluated 12.9 billion messages globally and flagged 20.3 million as fraudulent.
