These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

Confidence
The domain has been active for over four years, which usually suggests legitimacy, but its role as a 'technical bridge' for third-party surveys introduces significant risk. Our analysis shows it is part of the Surveza network, which has been documented in various malvertising and tech-support scam flows. Multiple security feeds have blacklisted the domain due to its association with suspicious parameterized URLs and tracking scripts. While the operator claims to be a neutral infrastructure provider, the lack of content moderation allows for the delivery of deceptive landing pages. The presence of heavy tracking and analytics from various regions further indicates a focus on aggressive data harvesting.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The landing page is a minimalist 'technical property' notice for Surveza. It explicitly states that the domain is used for technical operations and that content on individual subpages is user-generated and not moderated by the host. This 'hands-off' approach is a common tactic for infrastructure used in lead-generation and redirect scams.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted in the Netherlands on an IP with a history of minor abuse reports. It utilizes a standard Let's Encrypt SSL certificate and loads external resources from Google and Yandex. The presence of Yandex analytics alongside Snowplow and Sentry suggests a sophisticated tracking setup designed to profile visitors.

Domain History

Registered in September 2021, the domain is nearly five years old. While age is typically a positive signal, this domain functions as a 'throwaway' technical backend for a larger network. It has maintained a low public profile despite its age, lacking a traditional business presence or social media footprint.

Web Reputation

The domain is currently listed on several high-reputation DNS blocklists specifically for phishing and 'crapware' distribution. While some independent trust sites give it a passing grade based solely on its age and SSL status, security researchers have linked its subdomains to campaigns involving deceptive 'campaignid' parameters often seen in tech-support lures.
Risk Factors
6
  • Listed on major DNS blocklists for phishing and scam activity.
  • Associated with tech-support scam patterns and deceptive redirects.
  • Uses a 'technical domain' pretext to avoid responsibility for hosted content.
  • Heavy use of cross-domain tracking and analytics scripts.
  • No verifiable business registration or physical address provided.
  • Contact email does not match the primary domain name.
Positive Signals
3
  • Domain has been registered and active for over 1,700 days.
  • Valid SSL certificate with no immediate expiry issues.
  • No direct malware detections in our sandbox environment.

  • Classic tech-support scare copy found (fake Microsoft/Apple alert, remote-access instructions).
  • Primary scraped category: fake tech-support page.
  • AI analyst tagged this as a tech-support scam.

Possible tech-support scare page

Pages like this impersonate Microsoft, Apple, or your ISP to trick you into calling a number or granting remote access.

  • Treat 33apk.com as unverified

    Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.

  • Do not call the number and do not install any "support" tool

    Microsoft, Apple, Google, and legitimate ISPs never show a pop-up with a phone number. Installing AnyDesk, TeamViewer, or "Windows Support" at their request hands over your computer.

  • Close the page — end the browser process if needed

    If the page has locked your browser, press Ctrl+Shift+Esc (Windows) or Cmd+Option+Esc (Mac) and end the browser task. Reopen your browser with "Don't restore tabs".

  • If you already gave remote access or paid

    Disconnect the device from the internet. Run a full scan with Malwarebytes or a reputable AV. Change your passwords from a different device. Call your bank to dispute any payment and request a new card.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review marked 33apk.com as suspicious. Several warning signs were detected; it may still turn out legitimate, but you should verify it through independent channels before trusting it with money or credentials.
  • 33apk.com currently scores 55/100 on our trust scale. We found enough warning signals to recommend caution. Verify the site through independent channels before entering credentials or money.
  • Yes. 33apk.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YR2, expiring in 81 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • 33apk.com is 4.8 years old, registered on 9/15/2021 through NameCheap, Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report 33apk.com as clean.
  • No. 33apk.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • 33apk.com resolves to an IP operated by DataWeb Global Group B.V. in NL (usage type: Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.
  • Yes. 33apk.com sits in the global top-100k on Cloudflare Radar, which means it has substantial real-world traffic. That does not automatically make it safe, but established brands almost always rank here and throwaway scam domains almost never do.
