Submitted sites are then verified by other members before it appears on their blacklist. Anyone can join and submit suspected phishing sites. Phishtank is a community of users who keep track of known phishing sites in a large database. And if more than one scan gives a suspicious result, we say "this site is not safe". If just one result gives a suspicious result, we declare the site as "may not be safe". If all the results are "safe" we assess the safe as "safe to visit". There are other website that specifically deal with downloadable files. Look at the content of the message, does this message make sense coming from this person?Īlso this site is not recommended for use with links that contain downloadable files. If the link was in an email, do you know the sender? Even if you know the sender, often times hackers can spoof, pretend to be, someone you know.
When determining how safe a website is, it's important to consider the context of the link in question. We use various well known link scanning services to check websites for malware and phishing. Feel free to re-scan the url using the scan box above.
Also, look at the date of the last scan to determine how effective these results are. But no automated tool can be 100% accurate, even when all the results are listed as safe, do not assume automatically the site is safe to visit. Onlinelinkscan is meant to help users avoid potentially dangerous sites.
