Spot the red flags of a fake pay stub before renting or lending.

What we found

  • No employer name on the stub.
  • Net pay (3825.00) doesn't match gross minus deductions (3413.00). Off by 412.00.
  • Gross is a suspiciously round number. Real pay stubs often include cents.

Educational tool only. Always verify income with a credit-report-style background check service. Don’t make lending decisions on a stub alone.

About this tool

Use common landlord heuristics to score a pay stub's authenticity across formatting, math, employer data, and tax fields. Educational use only — not a substitute for a background check service.
