I already have a virus scanner — so what’s the added value?

A virus scanner is essential for keeping your device protected against viruses, malware, and other harmful software. It plays a key role in detecting and removing threats after they’ve reached your device.

However, most antivirus programs don’t actively warn you when you’re about to visit a suspicious or fraudulent website — especially websites that are designed to look legitimate but are actually trying to scam you.

That’s where the Fraud Scanner steps in. It acts as a first line of defense by checking websites before you interact with them. Whether you click on a link in a social media ad, open a webshop, or follow a phishing link, the Fraud Scanner helps you avoid danger before it’s too late.

In short:
🛡️ Your antivirus protects your device.
🔍 The Fraud Scanner protects you while browsing the web.
