Use Malwarebytes Scam Link Check

Malwarebytes Scam Link Check is a free online tool that helps you determine whether a website link is safe or leads to a phishing scam or malware. To check if a link is safe, paste it into the link checker tool's search bar, and we’ll check it against the Malwarebytes threat intelligence database to determine its credibility.

Note: If that website has not been checked before, it may take a few minutes to get results.

Once the check is done, you'll see a results page showing whether the URL you pasted is safe or malicious, the webpage's statistics, and other advanced insights. You can also see a site preview showing what the URL's webpage looks like, along with any reports other users have made about the URL.

Report a suspicious link

After you’ve looked up a link, you can report it. Reporting suspicious links helps Malwarebytes experts stay informed and helps the community identify potential scams or threats more quickly.
