QRDIV's QR safety check reveals the real URL behind a QR code before you scan and checks whether it's phishing, malicious or a spoofed domain, so you can see the link before deciding whether to open it — all locally in your browser, never uploaded.

Can QR codes carry viruses? Common scanning risks

A QR code is just a string of data and can't "carry a virus"; the real risk is the link it points to — phishing login pages, fake downloads, fraudulent payment prompts, and so on. Before scanning, use this tool to reveal the real URL and check the domain, then decide whether to open it; this stops most scams.
