Report a QR code

If a dynamic QR code made with MakeMyQROnline took you to a phishing page, a scam, malware or spam, tell us. We review every report and disable codes that break our terms.

Scan the code with your phone camera and copy the link it shows before opening it. Static QR codes don't pass through our servers, so we can't disable those.

What's wrong?

Please don't include passwords or payment details.

What happens after you report

  1. We check the link the code points to and the account that created it.
  2. If it breaks our terms — phishing, scams, malware, spam or illegal content — we disable the code. Anyone who scans it then sees a "not available" page instead of the harmful site.
  3. Accounts that create harmful codes can be suspended.

We can only disable dynamic codes, whose links start with go.makemyqronline.com. A static QR code contains its link directly and never passes through our servers, so if a harmful static code was made with our generator, report the website it leads to (for example to Google Safe Browsing) and, if you lost money, to the police.

How to spot a dangerous QR code

  • Read the link your camera shows before opening it — check the website name carefully.
  • Look for a sticker placed over the original code, especially on parking meters, posters and shop counters.
  • Never enter your UPI PIN to receive money — you only need it to pay.
  • Be wary of codes that create urgency ("your account will be blocked", "pay your fine now").
  • Log in only through official apps and websites you already use.
