Not sure if a link is safe? Paste the URL below and check it for scam and phishing patterns before you click. Free, instant, and no sign-up required.
Want a full report on a domain instead of a single link? Enter the website address for a detailed safety check.
These are the signals that most often turn a normal-looking link into a trap. Our checker weighs all of them at once.
Lookalike domains
Small misspellings or extra words — paypa1.com, amazon-security.net, or sbi-kyc-update.in instead of the real site.
URL shorteners
bit.ly, tinyurl, or unfamiliar shorteners that hide where the link actually goes.
Urgent or threatening wording
“Act in 24 hours”, “account suspended”, or “claim your prize” pressure you to click before you think.
Requests for logins or payment
Any link asking for your password, OTP, card number, or a small “verification” fee.
Brand-new or hidden domains
Sites registered days ago, or links inside images and QR codes so you can't read the address.
Wrong or missing HTTPS
Plain HTTP, broken padlocks, or certificates that don't match the brand it claims to be.
How do I check if a link is a scam?
Paste the full URL into the scam link checker above before you click it. ScamCheck analyses the domain, structure, and known scam patterns and gives you a safety verdict with the specific red flags it found.
Is it safe to just paste a suspicious link here?
Yes — pasting a link so we can analyse it does not open the page or visit it on your behalf. Never enter your login details or payment info into the suspicious site itself.
What is the difference between this and the phishing link checker?
The scam link checker covers all scam links — fake shops, giveaways, crypto, and delivery links included. The phishing link checker focuses specifically on links that impersonate a login page to steal credentials. Both use the same engine, so either is a good place to start.
Can you check a whole website, not just one link?
Yes. Use the “check a whole website” box below to get a full report for any domain, including its risk signals and history.
I already clicked a scam link — what should I do?
Close the tab and don't enter anything. If you already entered a password, change it and turn on two-factor authentication. If you entered card details, contact your bank. Run a device malware scan to be safe.
