URL:Scam è un avviso di protezione web Avast/AVG per una pagina che appare fraudolenta, ingannevole o non sicura. Può dipendere dal sito, da un redirect pubblicitario, da un link malevolo o da adware nel browser.
Cosa significa URL:Scam
URL:Scam is a web-level detection. It does not always mean that your Windows system is infected. It means the antivirus blocked a page or redirect before the browser could load it safely.
Perché appare
- The site is impersonating a brand, shop, exchange, support page, or login form.
- A legitimate site is showing a malicious ad or redirect.
- A browser extension or notification permission keeps opening scam pages.
- Malware or adware is injecting redirects into browsing sessions.
Cosa fare
- Close the blocked tab and do not enter passwords or card details.
- Check whether the alert always mentions the same domain.
- Remove unknown browser extensions and notification permissions.
- Clear site data for the suspicious domain.
- If alerts appear on many unrelated sites, scan the computer and check proxy/DNS settings.
- Non inserire l’URL tra le eccezioni senza verifiche indipendenti.
FAQ
Is URL:Scam a virus?
Usually it is a blocked web threat, not a standalone Windows file. Repeated alerts across many sites may point to browser adware or a malicious extension.
Can the site be a false positive?
Yes, but whitelist only after checking the domain owner, final redirect URL, reputation, and whether the site was recently compromised.
