A unknown link will be forwarded to your email address via third party website.
When you click it mistakenly, nothing happens - it says page not found
But automatically it will send your IP address to the person who has sent you the link. Unfortunately you can't even know who has sent you the link. Be careful with this new tactic.
Lookup IP Address Location
If you can find out the IP address of an Internet user, you can get an idea what part of the country or world they're in by using our IP Lookup tool.
What to do: Enter the IP address you're curious about in the box below, then click "Look Up IP Address." Read the information below for an explanation.
You can't always get what want.
Your IP-address search will give you general details only about what is on the end of that IP address. Here's what you'll find out:
- The ISP and organization's name
- The IP's host name
- The country it's in
- The region/state
- The city (a best guess)
- The latitude and longitude of the location (a best guess)
- The area code for that region
- Any known services running on that IP
What you won't get.
You won't get anything like a person's name or street address. That's where privacy issues come in, which are there to protect Internet users like you.
How accurate is the IP Lookup tool?
| Country | 99% |
| State | 90% |
| Region (25-mile radius) | 81% |
In other countries the accuracy for 25-mile radius within the region is 55%.
