I have no clue if this was a shortened URL That's why I used urlquery.net - you post the URL to them > Scam but not poisonous: http://urlquery.net/report.php?id=1473216020310 and they fake a browser and go to the site. In this case, I saw a page in Swedish, so I assumed a scam. urlquery.net tracks other scams from the same IP range/ISP, whether the site attempts to install malware and a bunch of other checks. It also follows shortened URLs to their target. A couple other places to test URLs: https://www.robtex.net/ https://virustotal.com/en/ http://www.urlvoid.com urlquery does have some uptime problems. -- a Andy Bach, afb...@gmail.com 608 658-1890 cell 608 261-5738 wk
