About this app

ScamGuard: Link Checker helps you inspect suspicious links before you open them.

Formerly known as LinkGuard, ScamGuard is built for fast scam, phishing, fraud, and risky-link checks when you receive a URL in chat, SMS, email, social media, QR codes, search results, or ads.

Use ScamGuard to:
• Check suspicious links before you tap
• Detect phishing links, scam websites, and risky URLs
• Spot lookalike domains, fake login pages, and suspicious redirects
• Scan QR codes and review the destination link before opening it
• Check links from messages, emails, social media posts, and online ads
• Get clear link safety summaries without technical jargon
• Read scam alerts and safety reminders to stay aware of common fraud tactics

ScamGuard can help you review links related to online shopping, banking messages, delivery updates, account security alerts, prize claims, crypto links, payment pages, shortened URLs, and other unexpected messages.

The app is designed to make link checking simple: paste a URL, share a link to ScamGuard, or scan a QR code to inspect it before visiting the website.

ScamGuard gives practical warnings based on visible URL signals, redirect behaviour, reputation checks, and AI-assisted analysis where available. No link checker can guarantee that every website is safe or unsafe, so always use your judgement before entering passwords, OTPs, banking details, payment information, or personal data.
Check suspicious links for scams, phishing, and risky sites.
