Are deceptive redirect hyperlinks safe to use in emails? -


we're generating emails programmatically. need include hyperlink takes people page on website a, want use website b track click before redirecting.

is safe show url website a, in hyperlink takes them website b? is, this:

here's page wanted: <a href="http://website-b.com/sometrackingtoken">     website-a.com/thethingyouwereexpecting </a> 

... or sufficiently scam-like email clients might object it?

note:

  • we do want website-a.com url visible email recipient.
  • the sites on different domains.

you can set visible link , href property 2 totally different things , there's little no consequences, pretty standard mailers need tracking.

the thing is, why not wrap text instead of literal link? present button if you're worried "click ability".

if want present link that's same, why not append parameters on end trigger tracking action? /x vs /x?token=xxx can grab , and process @ point of handling request. suppress display of in raw url you're showing.
