Report a Link

Help keep the internet safer. If you have encountered a short link that leads to harmful, deceptive, or malicious content, let us know and our team will investigate promptly.

What Should You Report?

We rely on community members like you to identify harmful links. Submit a report if a short link redirects to any of the following:

●
Spam — unsolicited promotions, bulk advertising, or irrelevant commercial content designed to mislead users.
●
Fraud — scams, fake giveaways, investment fraud, or schemes designed to deceive users for financial gain.
●
Malware — links that attempt to download ransomware, spyware, or other harmful software onto a visitor's device without consent.
●
Phishing — pages that impersonate legitimate websites to steal passwords, credit card numbers, or other sensitive personal information.

What Happens After You Report?

Every report is taken seriously. Here is what our review process looks like:

1
Report Received

Your submission is logged and assigned to our safety team. You will receive a confirmation to the email address you provided.

2
Link Investigation

Our team examines the reported link and its destination to determine whether it violates our acceptable use policy. This typically takes 24 to 48 hours.

3
Action Taken

Confirmed harmful links are disabled immediately and the responsible account is reviewed. Repeated violations result in permanent suspension.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I report a link I have not personally visited?

Yes. If you have seen a short link shared in a message, email, or social media post and have reason to believe it is dangerous, you can report it without clicking it. Simply copy the short link address and paste it into the form above. Our team will safely examine the destination on your behalf.

Will the person who created the link know I reported them?

No. All reports are confidential. The account owner is never notified of who submitted a report. We investigate every case independently based on the link content and destination, not solely on the number of reports received.

How long does it take for a reported link to be removed?

Our team aims to review all reports within 24 to 48 hours. Links that are immediately confirmed as malicious or phishing are disabled within the hour. If a case requires deeper investigation, it may take slightly longer, but we will act as quickly as possible to protect other users.

What if the link I reported turns out to be safe?

No action is taken against a link or account until our team has completed a full review. If the destination is found to be legitimate, the link remains active and the account is unaffected. We appreciate all reports, even those that turn out to be false positives, because they help us monitor the platform proactively.

Can I report a link that goes to illegal content?

Absolutely. Links pointing to illegal content, including content that exploits minors, promotes illegal substances, or facilitates criminal activity, should be reported immediately using the form above. Select the closest matching reason from the dropdown. Our team escalates these cases and cooperates with relevant authorities when required by law.
