# Malicious links (smart check)

Phishing and malware pushes where the link or wording looks off but the host isn't on the instant list.

The smart check looks for anyone pushing phishing, malware or scam pages, disguised and socially engineered links included. It works alongside the instant lookalike check.

## When you see this label

Usually it's a sketchy link with bait text, a shortened URL, or a fresh typosquat the fixed list hasn't learned yet.
