Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The site presents itself as a standard local breakdown recovery business offering 24/7 towing and roadside assistance in Nottingham. Our antivirus network and browser blocklists returned zero flags, and the hosting IP shows no abuse history. The evidence package confirms the matching UK limited company was incorporated in May 2024 and remains active, with two positive review summaries and listings on directories like Yell.com. No scam reports, complaints, or clone indicators appeared in our research. The only caution is the company's recent formation, which naturally means fewer long-term reviews.

Still, stay alert
No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.
- Double-check the exact URL in your address bar
Confirm you are actually on apexautorecovery.co.uk and not a lookalike like a-pexautorecovery.co.uk.com or an IDN homoglyph.
- Use a password manager
Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.
