No Phish Found: We could'nt find it in our database, this doesnt mean its safe, just that it wasnt marked otherwise, be careful

Safe Domain: The domain found was marked "Safe" via our staff team, this means it inherets an amount of trust by us, but we cannot verify beyond this, if the domain changed hands, or if the owner turned malicious, it may not be safe to visit
Use your gut, but its a helpful stamp of some integrity
