“Use this service to check the online reputation of a website.

Check if a website is a scam, check if a website is legit and trusted by other users”.

Scamvoid at https://www.scamvoid.net/ is a free online security service born in September 2012 that lets users see if a website is known to be a scam site or is safe. So, it’s a simple way to check if a web site is safe before accessing it.

Sadly, there are ever more scam websites ready to steal your personal information, download malware to your device or con you into paying for something you will never get.

Scamvoid is a useful resource to help warn you about dodgy websites.

Scamvoid accesses various online services to check if they have registered the site as containing malware or otherwise to be dangerous. These services include:

• Google safe browsing
• Spamhaus
• Threatlog and
• Spam404

The site also offers other services to do with domain name checking, IP addresses, DNS records etc.

A good resource, but you still need to maintain your guard even if services such as Scamvoid say a website is not dangerous.

If you have any experiences with these scams do let me know, by email.
