Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if a link is suspicious?▼
Red flags include: unexpected messages, urgency ("Act now!"), requests for login credentials, too-good-to-be-true offers, and links from unknown senders.
What happens if I click a bad link?▼
Malicious links can lead to phishing pages that steal credentials, download malware, or redirect through tracking systems. When in doubt, expand first.
Does expanding a link visit the website?▼
Our tool follows redirects server-side without loading the full page content, so your device never directly visits the destination until you choose to.
