What We Check

We query antivirus feeds, phishing blacklists, and financial regulator databases in real-time. One URL, multiple threat sources, instant verdict.

Antivirus
95+ engines

Cross-reference URLs against industry-leading antivirus databases including Kaspersky, Norton, McAfee, and Avast via VirusTotal for comprehensive malware and phishing detection.

Regulators
15 agencies

Verify if investment platforms, forex brokers, and casinos are licensed by financial authorities like FCA, SEC, ASIC, CySEC, and other regulators worldwide.

Safe Browsing
Google API

Real-time queries to Google Safe Browsing API to detect known phishing sites, social engineering attacks, and malware distributors flagged by Google.

SSL/TLS
Certificate

Validate HTTPS encryption, certificate authority trust, expiration dates, and configuration. Scam sites often lack SSL or use self-signed certificates.

WHOIS
Domain age

Lookup domain registration data to reveal creation date, registrar, and ownership. Newly registered domains (under 6 months) are often associated with scams.
