A QR code hides its destination until you have already opened it. BaitScan decodes it, follows the chain and tells you where it really leads — before your camera app does.
Results are automated risk estimates based on public indicators and heuristics.
See the real URL before you scan, not after.
QR codes placed on parking meters, invoices and letters to fake a payment page.
Shorteners and tracking hops that disguise the final destination.
