URL X-Ray Scanner

Check any suspicious link before clicking. We compare the URL against global phishing and malware databases.

Why dangerous links look real

Scammers don't invent a new domain for every attack — they fake familiar ones. A swapped letter ("paypaI.com" instead of "paypal.com"), a lookalike character, or an extra word in a subdomain ("netflix-support.com") slip past your attention because your brain recognizes the overall shape of the address instead of reading it letter by letter.

Short links hide where you'll actually land

Shorteners like bit.ly only show you the shortener itself, not the destination — there's no way to see where it leads without clicking. That's exactly the case where checking first, clicking second, matters.

What this scanner actually checks

The link is checked against Google's Safe Browsing database — the same list Chrome itself uses to block dangerous sites, containing millions of known phishing and malware URLs. The check happens on our server; the link itself is never stored.
