Tuned for the scams Australians actually get. Local accountability.
Spots brand-new scam sites that aren't on any blocklist yet.
Scam links arrive in texts, emails, and social media posts that look completely real. By the time a fake site has loaded, the damage can already be done.
Scam SafeGuard catches the link first — so a single bad click doesn't turn into a stolen password or an empty bank account.
No setup, no learning curve. Add it once and it quietly works in the background.
One click to install. No account or credit card needed to start.
Shop, read your email, scroll social media. You won't notice a thing.
If a link leads somewhere risky, we stop it and explain why — in plain English.
Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok are now the most common source of scams. Click a link from social media and we check where it really goes — before it opens.
A website selling designer goods at impossible prices that launched last week? We check a site's age and patterns, and flag fake storefronts before you enter your card.
Got a dodgy SMS or WhatsApp? Paste it into "Check a Message" and we'll scan every link inside it in seconds. Perfect for the AusPost, myGov, or Linkt text that doesn't look right.
One click checks every link in an email at once. We pull out just the web addresses and check each one.
We never read the message itselfOther browser security tools ask for full access to your inbox. We don't — and we can't. Our code pulls out only the web addresses from an email. It cannot read your subject lines, your message text, your sender, or your attachments.
We see the address on the envelope, never what's written inside.

My background is in neuroscience — specifically how people think, decide, and get manipulated without realising it. Scam messages are engineered to exploit the same mental shortcuts that make us efficient: urgency, authority, familiarity, flow. When you're browsing normally, you're trusting. That's exactly when you're most vulnerable.
I've worked alongside world-leading cybersecurity researchers. I've also watched people I care about — people who are smart, careful, and capable — lose serious money to scams that were designed by professionals to be convincing. In some cases, life-changing amounts.
So I built Scam SafeGuard around one idea: protection that works with how people actually behave online, not against it. No friction. No jargon. Just a quiet layer that catches dangerous links before they do harm — whether you're technical or not.
