Is Scannero really $0.89 or scam?

[Kerplunk]

My phone was stolen. Saw that Scannero costs less than a dollar to locate it, but is it a trap? Do they charge more later? Don’t want to lose money and data to malware now.

Sorry to hear about your stolen phone. Regarding your question, it’s not a malware trap that steals your data, but the $0.89 price is a bit deceptive. That low fee is just a 24-hour trial. If you don’t cancel it immediately, they will automatically enroll you in a monthly subscription, which costs around $50. You can read user reviews here to understand how their billing works. If you do decide to use it to locate your device via SMS tracking, just make sure to cancel the trial right away so you don’t get hit with unexpected recurring charges.
