URL safety checker

Paste a suspicious link below. This tool inspects the address itself for common phishing and malware red flags - raw IPs, lookalike brand names, punycode, risky shorteners and more. It runs entirely in your browser, never visits the link, and never sends it anywhere.

What it looks for

It flags structural warning signs in the address: no HTTPS, an IP instead of a domain, an @ that hides the real destination, punycode lookalikes, deep subdomains, link shorteners, frequently-abused top-level domains, odd ports and encoded characters, and well-known brand names used outside the main domain.

The honest limits

This is a text check, not a verdict. It cannot open the page, run a scan, or query a threat database, so a clean result is not proof a site is safe, and a flag is not proof it is malicious. Treat flags as reasons to slow down. When in doubt, do not click - type the address yourself or open the official app.
