At MevaSearch, our mission is to end the era of surveillance and data exploitation. Unfortunately, bad actors are trying to use our name to do the exact opposite.
We have received reports of fraudulent advertisements and websites promising "Lifetime Unlimited MevaSearch Access" or "Free Premium Accounts" in exchange for identity verification or credit card details.
Let’s be clear: These are phishing scams. MevaSearch is not behind them.
How the Scam Works
Fraudsters are running ads on social media and shady networks that lead to "cloned" versions of our site. They lure users with the promise of a free service, but then ask for:
- Photos or scans of your ID/Passport.
- Full credit card details (often claiming it's just for "verification").
- Bank login credentials.
Why This is a Trap
We built MevaSearch on a Subscription Model specifically to avoid the "free-but-you-are-the-product" trap.
- Our Search plan starts at $3.99.
- Our AI Results plan starts at $9.99.
Anyone offering these services "for free" in exchange for your most sensitive documents is likely trying to steal your identity or drain your bank account.
The Golden Rule: If a service claims to be "free for life" but demands your government ID or banking access, you are the commodity, not the client.
MevaSearch Security Standards
To protect yourself, remember these four facts about how we operate:
- We Don't Need Your ID: MevaSearch values anonymity. We only require an email address to create an account. We will never ask for a scan of your ID, passport, or driver’s license.
- No "Free" Unlimited Plans: We do not offer unlimited free tiers in exchange for personal data. We are 100% subscription-funded to ensure we never have to sell your data.
- Check the URL: Our only official domain is mevasearch.com. Always check the address bar before entering any information.
What to do if you’ve been targeted?
If you have already provided your data to a fraudulent site:
- Freeze your credit cards immediately through your bank's app.
- Report your ID as stolen to the local authorities to prevent identity theft.
- Update your passwords, especially if you used the same password on the scam site as you do for your email or banking.
MevaSearch was born out of a rebellion against surveillance. We will not let scammers undermine your right to privacy.
Stay safe and stay private,
