How do you evaluate whether a dark web scanner is actually legitimate?

I’ve been looking into best dark web scanner options and noticed that a lot of them make similar claims about finding exposed credentials and breach data.

What should you actually look for when evaluating these services? For example, how can you tell whether a scanner is surfacing useful, verifiable information versus simply generating generic alerts?

Are there specific data sources, reporting details, or technical indicators that make one more trustworthy than another?

You can press a button that gives you $50 million instantly, but a random stranger somewhere in the world dies the moment you press it. You'll never know who, never be caught, never feel it happen. Do you press it?
