How it works

The Website Checker API uses a combination of static and dynamic analysis of the website source code, website behavior, DNS registration, and even the URL itself.

What we look for:

	Description
Drainer code	Check for code on the website that will trigger transactions or signature requests that can drain your wallet of assets.
Presence on allow/deny lists	Check if the website is on any allow or deny list indicating if the site is known to be trusted or a scam.
Association with scam wallets/contracts	Check if there are any wallet or contract addresses associated with the website that are known to be scammers.
Anti-scam-detection code	Check for techniques on the website used to prevent code inspection. Sometimes the best way to detect scam code is to detect that someone is preventing you from finding it. We look for these techniques as a signal that the site is likely a scam.
Domain impersonation	Scam websites often use domain names that are iterations of legitimate websites in an effort to deceive the user into thinking they are the legitimate one. We detect this for all major NFT project sites, marketplaces, and dapps.
Suspicious keywords	Some scammers leave traces of their intentions within the contents of the website. We look for specific key phrases that are frequently associated with scam sites.
