Is that link a phishing scam?
Paste a suspicious link. We check the address for the tricks scammers use and tell you — in plain English — why it looks risky.
We never visit the link — we only analyze the address itself. Nothing is stored.
Private by design
We never open the link and never store what you check. Analysis happens on the address alone.
Explains the why
Instead of a vague score, you get the specific red flags — so you learn to spot the next one yourself.
Built on trusted data
Combines look-alike & trick detection with Google Safe Browsing and known-bad URL lists.
How we read a link
Every scam link hides its true destination. Here's the kind of trick our checker catches, taken apart piece by piece.
Everything before the @is decoration — your browser goes to whatever comes after it. That's how a link can look like PayPal but land you on a scammer's server.
