GuardMe Fraud Protection

GuardMe protects you from phishing, fraudulent websites, and online scams in real time — without tracking you or selling your data.

HOW IT WORKS
GuardMe filters your device's DNS lookups through its protective resolvers. When you tap a link or type an address, GuardMe checks the destination against a continuously updated threat database. Dangerous sites are stopped and replaced with a clear warning page — and you choose whether to continue. This works in every app and every browser on your device.

GuardMe uses Android's VPN interface to filter DNS locally. On the free plan only your DNS lookups are processed — your browsing traffic flows directly as normal.

KEY FEATURES
• Real-time protection — phishing and fraud sites are blocked before they load
• Privacy-first — no account or sign-up, no browsing history stored, no ad tracking
• Free DNS protection — core protection is free for everyone
• Encrypted DNS — your lookups are encrypted in transit (DNS over QUIC and DNS over HTTPS)
• Safe alternatives — when GuardMe blocks a fake shop, you can ask for vetted, legitimate merchants instead
• Optional VPN — a paid subscription adds full-traffic encryption through GuardMe's VPN servers
• Lightweight — minimal battery and performance impact

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account or sign-up required. No browsing history stored — queries are checked in real time, then discarded. No personal data collected, profiled, or sold. Diagnostic logs stay on your device unless you explicitly choose to send them.

When GuardMe blocks a fraudulent shop, you can ask for safe, vetted alternatives. Some suggested merchants pay GuardMe a commission — suggestions are clearly labeled, always optional, and never based on tracking you.

FREE CORE PROTECTION
DNS protection is free — for everyone, on every device. The optional VPN subscription is the only thing you can pay for, and protection never depends on it: if a subscription lapses, DNS protection stays on.
