## Check a URL

Enter any URL or domain to check if it has been flagged as malicious. Results are instant:

* **Malicious** — the URL is in our threat database. Shows how many threat databases flagged it.
* **Safe** — the URL is verified as legitimate.
* **No threats found** — the URL is not in our database (not suspicious, just not yet indexed).

<Info>
  URL checking is completely free and does not require a subscription. It's rate-limited to 20 checks per minute per server.
</Info>

## Report a Threat

Found a phishing site or scam account targeting your brand? Submit it for review. Confirmed threats are added to our global database and blocked across all protected communities.

### Phishing Website Reports

Available on all paid plans. Enter the URL of the phishing site and optionally describe how it impersonates your brand.

### Scam Social Account Reports

Available on **Advanced**, **Lifetime**, and **Enterprise** plans. Report impersonation accounts on platforms like X (Twitter), Discord, Telegram, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, and LinkedIn.

<Warning>
  Reports are rate-limited to 5 per hour per server. Each report is reviewed before being added to the threat database.
</Warning>

## Dispute a Flagged URL

If a URL is incorrectly flagged as malicious, click the **Dispute** button on the check result. Your dispute will be reviewed and the URL will be unflagged if confirmed as safe.

## Activity History

All your reports and disputes are tracked in the **Activity History** section. Statuses update automatically:

| Status       | Meaning                                              |
| ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| **Pending**  | Submitted and awaiting review                        |
| **Blocked**  | Report confirmed — URL is now in the threat database |
| **Resolved** | Dispute accepted — URL is no longer flagged          |
| **Rejected** | Report was not confirmed                             |

Statuses refresh each time you visit the page.
