About JustPhishing.org
A free, no-nonsense place to check suspicious links and learn how scams actually work — written for everyday people, not security experts.
What we do
Our link checker analyzes the web address you paste for the specific tricks scammers use — look-alike domains, embedded credentials, raw IP addresses, and known-bad URLs — and explains, in plain language, why something looks risky. Alongside it, our guides break down phishing emails, phone (vishing) scams, and what to do if you've already clicked.
How the checker works
We analyze the address itself and cross-reference reputable threat sources such as Google Safe Browsing and public malicious-URL lists. We never open the link, and we don't store what you check.
An honest limit
No checker catches everything. Brand-new scam sites can look clean for a few hours before they're reported. Treat a “looks clean” result as “no obvious red flags,” not a guarantee — and keep your guard up.
