Vet a Website in seconds.

Enter any website URL, and our tool will scan it automatically against a dozen criteria to let you know whether it's safe or suspicious.

What We Look Up For You

• Security Seals: Is the website using current encryption (HTTPS) to protect your data?
• Domain Age & History: How old is the website? Spammers use freshly created websites.
• Blacklist Status: Has the site been flagged for malware, phishing, or other abuse?
• Real-World Reviews: What do other people say? We look for patterns in crowd-sourced reviews and complaints. Internet scams are evolving by the day, with cases of offending web sites rising over 20% in the last year alone. The missing padlock symbol (no HTTPS) is a sure sign, but no longer enough to act on. We drill deeper, uncovering user complaints of non-delivery, fake products, or phishing scams linked to the domain.

Don't trust your instincts. Our widget helps you do the tedious task of checking a site's credibility easier. We look for the things scammers tend to miss, like real contact information, a business-like appearance, and a history of good conduct.

Pro Tips for Being Safe

• Always look for the padlock: Never enter personal or payment info on a site without HTTPS.
• Don't trust new websites: A site registered last week is much riskier than a site that's been up for years.
• Google it: Type the site's name with "reviews" or "scam" to see what people are saying about it. Our Website Scam Detector provides you with an easy-to-understand trust score so you can click with confidence.
