LEGITTAP SCAM CHECKER

Check a suspicious link before you trust the page behind it.

Fraudulent links are built to look ordinary at a glance. LEGITTAP evaluates the URL and available external evidence so you can spot suspicious domain patterns before entering credentials, payment details, or personal information.

What LEGITTAP looks for

The link scanner can evaluate URL structure, domain and redirect evidence, reputation data, configured threat intelligence, and other signals. New or look-alike domains can deserve extra verification even when they are not yet present on a threat list.

Why a clean threat-list result is not proof

Threat databases are useful but incomplete. New phishing sites can appear before a reputation feed has classified them, so a no-match result should not be read as a guarantee of safety.

Verify the destination independently

For banking, payroll, delivery, tax, account-recovery, or payment requests, navigate to the official site yourself or use the organization’s official app rather than trusting a link delivered in an unexpected message.

Look-alike links can hide in plain sight

Fraudulent links may use a misspelled brand, an extra word, a misleading subdomain, a shortened URL, or a domain that was registered recently for a short-lived campaign. A page can also copy the visual design of a trusted company while using an unrelated domain. Read the actual hostname carefully before entering credentials or payment information, and remember that HTTPS only means the connection is encrypted. It does not prove that the operator behind the site is trustworthy.

Before you sign in, pay, or download anything

If a message says an account is locked, a delivery failed, a payment is due, or a document is waiting, navigate to the organization independently instead of following the supplied link. Use a bookmark, official app, or known domain. If the destination is unfamiliar, do not enter passwords, one-time codes, card details, or identity documents until the organization and domain are verified. Threat intelligence can help surface known malicious infrastructure, but newly created phishing sites may not yet appear in reputation feeds.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Does LEGITTAP open every suspicious webpage on the server?

The current URL design analyzes the submitted URL and configured intelligence without using the backend to browse arbitrary submitted pages.

Can a brand-new domain be suspicious even if no blacklist flags it?

Yes. Domain age is only one signal, but very new domains can deserve additional scrutiny when combined with impersonation, payment, or credential requests.

What should I do if the link claims my account is locked?

Open the organization’s official app or type its known website address yourself, then check the account from there.
