# Advanced phishing detection

### How phishing detection works <a href="#how-phishing-detection-works" id="how-phishing-detection-works"></a>

**We have integrated phishing lists from Polkadot {.js} and ChainPatrol to protect you from scams.** When you encounter a potentially malicious website, you will receive a prominent warning notification like this:

You can either click:

* "**I trust this site**" to continue to the site, or
* "**Get me out of here**" to exit the screen and return to the homepage.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Please be aware that we won't take responsibility for any action once you click "**I trust this site**".
