Frequently asked questions

How do I check if a website is safe to visit?

Paste the URL into ScamGuard. We inspect the site server-side for phishing, malware, fake-login pages and known scam patterns, so you never have to open it yourself.

What makes a website unsafe?

Common unsafe signals: fake login forms harvesting passwords, malware downloads, malicious redirects, brand impersonation, and stolen-content e-commerce pages.

Is HTTPS enough to know a site is safe?

No. HTTPS only means the connection is encrypted — scam sites use HTTPS too. You still need to check who owns the domain and whether the content is legitimate.

Will ScamGuard protect me from clicking it?

ScamGuard inspects the destination so you can decide before clicking. If the verdict is 'unsafe', don't visit, don't log in, and don't enter payment details.

Is it free?

Yes — 3 free scans, no signup required.
