Overview

01

Check a suspicious message

Paste a suspicious message, link or address. The checker lists the warning signs it found and suggests a safer next step. It can miss a scam or flag something harmless, so a result is not a guarantee that a message, link or service is safe. When the live check is unavailable, a simpler check runs on your device. On the website, the check runs in your browser and nothing you paste leaves it.
