How TrueUPI Protects You
Our comprehensive UPI fraud detection system works through multiple layers of protection to keep your transactions safe.
1. TrueShield AI — ask first
Describe the situation in plain language or upload a screenshot. TrueShield combines vision extraction, live UPI database lookup, and RAG over scam playbooks to produce calibrated guidance.
You get a clear risk level, evidence-based reasoning, and actionable next steps — without sharing OTPs, PINs, or passwords.
- Multimodal input: text, images, QR-derived UPI IDs
- Database lookup with confirmed fraud vs community-check signals
- India-specific scam education via retrieval-augmented knowledge
- Evidence-calibrated language — suspicious vs confirmed vs unknown
2. Instant UPI ID Verification
Before making any payment, enter the UPI ID in our verification tool. Our system instantly checks the ID against our database of reported fraudulent accounts and provides a comprehensive risk assessment score.
The verification takes into account several factors:
- Previous fraud reports associated with the UPI ID
- Age and activity patterns of the account
- Connection to known fraud networks
- Geographical risk assessment based on fraud patterns
- Pattern matching with known scam techniques
Results are color-coded for easy understanding: Green for safe, Yellow for caution, and Red for high risk.
3. Community-Driven Fraud Reporting
TrueUPI's strength comes from our community of vigilant users who report fraudulent UPI IDs. When you encounter a scam:
- Submit detailed information about the fraud attempt
- Upload screenshots or other evidence
- Describe the scam technique used
- Report the financial impact (if any)
Our verification team reviews each report thoroughly before adding it to our database. This crowdsourced approach creates a powerful shield against new and emerging scams, often identifying them before they become widespread.
Each verified report helps strengthen our fraud detection system and protects the community.

- Receive notifications about new scams in your area
