Common questions
Know exactly what you are buying
Is this an app I need to install?
No. It works in your browser. You can also put a Find The Fakes icon on your home screen so it opens like an app.
Can this help me spot a catfish?
It can give you clues. If the same photo appears under a different name or story, that is a warning sign. A match is a clue, not proof, so compare the details carefully.
How do I return after I purchase?
Select Sign In and enter the same email address you used at checkout. We will email you a large sign-in button and a 6-digit backup code.
Does a match prove that someone is fake?
No. A match is a clue that the photo appears elsewhere. Review the source page, compare the story carefully, and never rely on one result alone.
Does no match prove that someone is real?
No. A picture can be new, private, cropped, altered, or unavailable to the search service.
What does lifetime access mean?
You pay once for access during the commercial life of Find The Fakes. There is no monthly subscription. Reasonable-use limits apply.
