# A URL shortener but instead of shortening the URL it makes it look extremely dodgy

### Sample URLs:

```

twitter.com -> win.a.free.ipad.verylegit.link/CT*OMGb=B5+b+)u6)DU882bitcoin.xlsx.pdf

google.com -> paypal.verylegit.link/8U70*m[uO409index.apk.pem.dmg

verylegit.link -> click.here.to.get.ripped.in.three.weeks.verylegit.link/ip-camera()698download!downloader.min.css.dmg

```

### How does it work?

When you give it a URL, a randomy sketchy URL path (the bit after the /) is generated. The mapping between the real URL and the sketchy one is then saved.

Since only the part after the / matters, you can use any domain you like.

#### Example

All of these links go to the same place (this page):

```

verylegit.link/exploit+411botnet.xlsx.rar.pdf

win2003.verylegit.link/exploit+411botnet.xlsx.rar.pdf

.verylegit.link/exploit+411botnet.xlsx.rar.pdf

```

## API

```

POST /sketchify

{

    'long_url': 'twitter.com'

}

```

Will return

```

   win.a.free.ipad.verylegit.link/CT*OMGb=B5+b+)u6)DU882bitcoin.xlsx.pdf

```

Go for it!
