Verdict

Domain animedao.vip is a 28-day-old registration returning HTTP 404 with no active content.

The site is currently non-functional. The domain name matches a well-known anime streaming brand that shut down in 2021 due to copyright issues, but the current registration shows no connection to the original service.

Avoid entering any personal information or clicking links on this domain until it shows a legitimate, active site with verifiable ownership.

01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

Current site status

The domain returns HTTP 404, so the site's own page, contact, About and policy text could not be reviewed.

Brand name usage

The original AnimeDao streaming site operated from 2012 until its abrupt shutdown on April 8, 2021, due to legal issues over copyright infringement.

The current animedao.vip domain is 28 days old and shows no evidence of being operated by the original service.

Why the score is 45

One public warning in public web research: "AnimeDao has been around since 2012, but it was abruptly shut down on April 8, 2021, due to legal issues over copyright infringement.". Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.

07 · Safety FAQ

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers reflect the saved verdict and evidence in this report.

Is animedao.vip a scam or is it safe?

There isn't enough evidence yet for us to give animedao.vip a confident verdict, so treat it with caution. The domain is 28 days old — recently-registered sites carry more risk. Until it can be independently verified, don't enter passwords, card details, or send money, and confirm the company through channels you find yourself rather than links on the site.

Is animedao.vip safe to use?

animedao.vip has a Safety Score of 45/100 (Moderate Risk). Analysis coverage is partial at 50%. Do not trust blindly; analysis may be limited.

Is animedao.vip on any phishing or malware blacklists?

No — animedao.vip is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.

How old is the animedao.vip domain?

animedao.vip is 28 days old, registered on October 5, 2026 through Spaceship, Inc. Scam sites are very often freshly registered and short-lived, so an age under six months is a reason for extra caution.

Does animedao.vip have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes — animedao.vip presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, valid for another 61 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".

Where is animedao.vip hosted?

animedao.vip resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, Inc. in US (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.

How often is the animedao.vip report updated?

This report is a record of the scan run on November 2, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about animedao.vip has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
