Free IP VPN Lookup Tool
Need to check if an IP address is hiding behind a VPN? You’re in the right place. Run a quick VPN detection test and find out if that IP has been used to tunnel traffic through a VPN, proxy, or anonymizer. Our detection engine is built for accuracy — 99.9% effective at spotting VPN IPs across IPv4 and IPv6 ranges.
Protect Your Platform from Proxies, VPNs & TOR — In Real Time
Fraudo.io’s VPN Detection API gives you instant insights into risky traffic. Whether you’re running an eCommerce site, SaaS product, or ad platform, you can spot and block anonymized connections before they harm your platform. No complicated setup, just fast, accurate results.
Add VPN Detection to Your Website in Minutes
Spotting a VPN is just the beginning. A lot of abusive traffic also comes from data centers, proxy services, and Tor relays. That’s where our proxy and VPN detection system comes in.
You can either run one-off lookups for suspicious IPs or use our API to monitor traffic live. Want to bulk check a list? We’ve got you covered there too.
Covers All Countries, All Devices — IPv4 & IPv6
Our system is designed to flag both public and private VPN servers around the world, including cloud-hosted VPNs from providers like NordVPN, ExpressVPN, ProtonVPN, Private Internet Access, Surfshark, and hundreds more. Whether it's a shared VPN node or a private server, we'll tell you what you're dealing with.
What Is a VPN, Really?
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) creates a secure, encrypted connection between your device and the wider internet. It keeps your data hidden from ISPs, governments, and anyone else watching — including the websites you visit. It’s great for privacy, but also perfect for hiding behind fake locations or IPs.
Why Do People Use VPNs?
VPNs aren’t always bad. Businesses rely on them to give remote workers secure access to private systems. And in places where the internet is censored, people use VPNs to access basic services like Google or YouTube.
But that same privacy cloak can be used to commit fraud like fake signups, ad fraud, carding, phishing and many more.
Are VPN Users Always a Risk?
Not always. But when fraudsters want to stay hidden, VPNs are usually their first stop. That’s why our detection tools don’t just say “Yes” or “No.” We give you context like whether the IP comes from a known VPN server, how risky its history looks, and how often it’s been used in shady behavior.
How Does VPN Detection Work?
It’s simple. You send us an IP. We check it against our constantly updated threat network and detection engine. We’ll tell you if it’s likely to be a VPN, proxy, or Tor exit node and how risky the connection is based on behavior patterns, hosting provider checks, known abuse reports, and connection anonymity. You can do it through our dashboard or plug directly into our VPN Detection API.
