Confidence
AVEC EST OÜ is registered in Estonia's official business registry (code 10192213) and has operated continuously since 1997 — nearly 30 years of documented history. The company specializes in professional audio-video equipment import and wholesale, with a physical address in Tallinn and named board members on record since 2000. Our antivirus network flagged no malicious content, the hosting IP has zero abuse reports, and SSL is valid. Web searches across Estonian and English sources turned up no scam reports, customer complaints, or fraud mentions. The domain is associated with the legitimate business entity in official directories. The page itself appears minimal or under construction, but this is consistent with a B2B wholesaler that likely conducts business via direct contact rather than a public-facing storefront.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page loads with minimal visible text and no contact form, login, or countdown timer. This is typical for a B2B wholesale operation that handles inquiries through direct email or phone rather than a consumer-facing web interface.

Infrastructure

Hosting IP 185.7.252.154 has zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. SSL certificate is valid (Let's Encrypt) with 26 days remaining. No redirects or homoglyph tricks detected.

Domain History

The domain avecest.ee is associated with AVEC EST OÜ, a company registered in Estonia's official business registry on 26 February 1997 (registry code 10192213). The company remains active with no debts or monitoring flags. Board member Avo Kokmann has been listed since 2000.

Web Reputation

Zero scam reports, zero customer complaints, and zero fraud mentions found across web searches in both Estonian and English. The company appears in official Estonian business directories (Inforegister.ee, Storybook.ee, Chamber of Commerce) with a physical Tallinn address and verified contact emails. No association with any known scam families, impersonation schemes, or fraudulent patterns.

Risk Factors
3
  • Page displays minimal content — no visible business description, contact details, or product listings on the homepage.
  • SSL certificate expires in 26 days and will require renewal.
  • No email addresses, phone numbers, or postal address visible on the current page (though business registration data confirms these exist).
Positive Signals
5
  • Company registered in Estonia's official business registry in 1997 with continuous active status for nearly 30 years.
  • Zero scam reports, complaints, or fraud mentions across web searches and consumer-review databases.
  • Hosting IP has zero abuse reports and clean reputation; SSL certificate is valid.
  • Business appears in multiple official Estonian directories with verified physical address and named board members.

AI Recommendation
This is a legitimate business. If you are a B2B customer seeking audio-video equipment wholesale or import services in Estonia, you can contact the company directly using the verified contact information in official business directories. The minimal page content is not a red flag for a wholesale operation.

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 avecest.ee and not a lookalike like a-vecest.ee.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.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.
