Malwarebytes launches free Scam Link Check tool

Malwarebytes has released Scam Link Check, a free web tool that analyzes suspicious URLs and returns a safety verdict — safe, dangerous, or unknown — in seconds. It uses the company's threat intelligence to detect phishing pages, fake stores, and redirect chains, and explains the reasoning behind each verdict.

• The tool checks phishing pages, counterfeit stores, and hidden redirect chains
• Malwarebytes says 85% of people can no longer reliably spot a scam
• Global scam losses are estimated at $442 billion, with $21 billion in the US
• Free at malwarebytes.com/scam-check/link and in the Browser Guard extension
