Frequently Asked Questions

How do I check if a link is safe before clicking?
Copy the suspicious link (long-press on mobile → Copy Link), paste into PhishGuard and click Scan Now. Within 3 seconds you get a verdict — Safe, Suspicious, High Risk or Critical — with reasons. Works for WhatsApp, SMS, email and Telegram links.
Can it detect fake Indian bank & UPI sites?
Yes. PhishGuard flags impersonation of SBI, HDFC, ICICI, Axis, PNB, Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay, BHIM, IRCTC, Aadhaar and 157+ Indian and global brands, including UPI payment scams and fake KYC pages.
How accurate is PhishGuard?
96.75% on Indian phishing patterns. It combines an XGBoost ML model, 55+ heuristic rules, WHOIS domain-age lookup, SSL verification and brand impersonation checks. Always verify critical decisions with a second source.
Does it scan shortened URLs (bit.ly, rb.gy, t.co)?
Yes. PhishGuard follows every redirect hop to the final destination, then runs all 55+ checks on that URL. You see the full redirect chain and final domain in the results.
What does a 'High Risk' result mean?
Multiple strong phishing indicators — new domain impersonating a brand, suspicious SSL, phishing-kit URL patterns. Do not visit, do not enter credentials, do not pay. Report to CERT-In or call 1930.
Is my scanned URL stored or shared?
URLs are used only for the security analysis. PhishGuard never sells or shares URL data with advertisers or brokers. Results are cached briefly for speed; signed-in users can view their own history.
Is PhishGuard completely free?
100% free. Built by Indian students for everyone in India. No login, no payment, no data collection beyond the scanned URL.
What should I do if a bank link is flagged?
Do not click it. Log in by typing your bank's URL directly or use the official app. Call your bank's helpline to verify. Real banks never send 'update KYC' or 'verify OTP' links via SMS or WhatsApp.
How do I report a phishing site in India?
Call 1930 (National Cyber Crime Helpline, 24×7) or file at cybercrime.gov.in. Acting within the first hour maximises recovery chances. You can also flag it via PhishGuard's community report after scanning.
