Scams SafeHop stops
Today's scams don't look like scams.
Scammers change their websites every day. SafeHop doesn't just rely on lists of known bad sites — it reads how a link behaves and what a page does, so brand-new scams get caught too.

How it works
Catches scams no list knows yet.
Most tools wait until a scam site is reported. SafeHop looks at what a link and a page actually do.
1 · Follows every hop
Records each redirect a link makes — even ones too fast to see — and reads destinations hidden inside ad links.
2 · Reads the page, on your device
Spots fake logins, fake alerts, hidden encrypted content and "can't leave" traps. Page content never leaves your browser.
3 · Unmasks & protects everyone
When a hidden scam appears, SafeHop's server unlocks it, confirms it and blocks it for every user — usually within seconds.

Read →Questions
How do I install it?
Install it from your browser's official store:
- SafeHop for Edge
- SafeHop for Chrome (also Brave, Opera and other Chromium browsers)
- SafeHop for Firefox
Is it really free?
Yes. The extension is free with no ads and no data selling.
Can I check an SMS or WhatsApp message?
Yes. Paste the whole message into the free checker, on your phone or computer. It checks the wording and every link, and the message never leaves your browser.
Will it slow down my browsing?
No. Local checks take a few milliseconds. Cloud checks run alongside the page load and only for unfamiliar sites.
What if it blocks a site I trust?
Click "Always trust this site" on the block page, or manage trusted sites in the popup.
I found a scam SafeHop missed. What do I do?
Open the SafeHop popup on that page and click "Report this scam", or email the link to [email protected]. Once confirmed, every SafeHop user is protected from it.
What do the badges on search results mean?
On search pages, SafeHop marks results that look like scams in red ("Dangerous") or amber ("Suspicious"); click the badge to see why. Sponsored ads that pass SafeHop's checks get a small green "ad checked" mark. Your search terms are never sent anywhere, and you can switch this off in the popup.
Is my antivirus not enough?
Keep it. Antivirus mostly blocks sites already on known-bad lists. SafeHop adds checks for brand-new scams: fake brands, days-old domains, cloaked ads and fake alerts, explained in plain words. They work well together.
Browse without second-guessing every link.
Free, private scam protection that explains itself.
