Is autin520.github.io legit or a scam?
A newly registered GitHub Pages site flagged by four antivirus engines for phishing despite currently showing a 404 error.
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.

MT Intelligence
Our analysis shows that while the page currently displays a standard GitHub 404 error, it has been blacklisted by several reputable security providers. Emsisoft, G-Data, Netcraft, and Webroot have all flagged this specific URL as a phishing or malicious threat. The domain age is effectively zero days, suggesting it was recently created or repurposed. GitHub Pages are frequently used by attackers to host short-lived phishing forms because they are free and easy to set up. The combination of active security flags and a 'missing' page often indicates a site that was taken down or is being prepared for a targeted attack.
