Unsure about a new supplier, customer, employer or business partner? Answer a few short questions and get an immediate indication of the fraud risk. Anonymous, no registration needed.
Free VAT check
Validate live via the official EU register (VIES) whether a company exists and under which name it is registered. A first, hard reliability check.
A valid registration is a first reliability signal, not a full investigation or solvency assessment. Source: VIES (European Commission). We do not store your search query.
Free Google reputation check
Enter the company name. We show live the Google presence: rating, number of reviews and address. A company without any Google listing deserves extra caution. The search takes about twenty seconds.
The Google reputation is an indication, not a judgment about a specific company. A low rating or missing presence can have multiple causes. Source: public Google business listings. We do not store your search query.
Company check
Fraudulent companies and suppliers often show the same warning signs. The more that coincide, the higher the risk.
Your risk indication
Answer all questions for your indication.
This check is an indication based on your input. It is not a creditworthiness or solvency assessment and not an accusation against a specific company. Our investigators conduct a thorough supplier or company investigation based on public sources, within the law of 18 May 2024 on private investigation. Your answers are not stored.
Ghost invoices, non-existent web shops, fraudulent suppliers and fake job offers cost companies and individuals a lot of money every year. A few simple checks beforehand significantly reduce the risk: check the company number in the Crossroads Bank for Enterprises and verify the VAT validity via the European VIES system.
For larger contracts, a new regular supplier or persistent doubt, a more thorough investigation pays off. Grey Investigations maps out who you are doing business with based on public sources: existence history, directors, and possible signs of default or fraud. This way you decide based on facts.
