WHY CREATE darcy?
They scammed our parents.
Corey Velan and Marty Algire here. We're the co-founders of darcy. We also created the FixMeStick® computer virus removal device.
Last year each of our Mom's lost thousands of dollars in separate online scams.
We designed darcy as the security partner we wish they had before they were scammed.
We hope darcy can help you stay safe. Please let us know.
Yours truly,
- Corey and Marty

TECHNOLOGY
How darcy Works
Automated Analysis
- darcy receives the scam messages you send it and breaks them down into components, e.g. domain names, phone numbers, links, attachments, images, audio, video, and prose.
- Each component is then analyzed for suspiciousness, e.g. emails that create a sense of urgency, links that get re-directed to sites that install malware, voice audio that requests passwords or PINs.
- The result of each component analysis is re-analyzed as a whole and darcy produces its recommendation.
Human Expertise
- If darcy is unsure whether it is a scam or not, it will send the scam to a human analyst who will dig into its details.
- If you are ever unsure about a darcy response, you just click to forward it to our team who will take a closer look and review what's going on with you.
