Phish Detective

A tool to make it easier to spot phishing emails and malicious links.

This is a tool to help you spot phishing emails and malicious links in the blink of an eye. This tool is completely free!

This extension does that by making you think twice about links you press, showing you where links are really taking you, providing you with the email address of the sender, not just who they claim to be, and a step by step guide on how to spot a phishing email right beside your email as you read it.

Don't worry! If you don't like one of these features you can always turn it off by clicking on the extension and then unchecking it.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Phish Detective requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Phish Detective is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this extension.
