Hi @Randy9256

If by 'fake' websites you mean phishing sites, 1Password does have some ability to help you there. When you save a login item using the browser extensions 1Password saves the website's URL along with your credentials. Then, when you are visiting a web page, 1Password will only offer to fill your credentials if the URL you're currently viewing matches the URL saved in 1Password. For example, if you visit amaz0n.com or amazn.com (assuming they don't redirect you to the real amazon.com) 1Password will not offer to fill your amazon.com credentials.

Does that help?
