High-risk candy storefront with multiple malicious or phishing detections
This is a transaction-oriented candy shop with product browsing, a cart, and shopping calls to action. It is high risk because three independent antivirus families reported adverse results, while the 83-day-old domain provides no phone number or postal address on the captured page and uses no contact email on its own domain.

The score combines saved evidence strength and analysis quality. Coverage is reported separately.
Why 24/100
High Risk covers scores 21–44. 3 findings pulled the score down; 1 pushed it up.
What pulled the score down
- Decisive3 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing.
- MinorThe domain is 83 days old.
- MinorThe captured page had no domain-based email, listed phone number, or visible operator postal address.
What pushed the score up
- SupportsThe saved TLS check found valid encryption, and one browser-protection check returned no threat warning.
No points per finding are stored for this report: our analysis weighed all findings together to set the score. Each finding shows its saved severity instead (Decisive, Strong, Moderate or Minor). Community reviews never change the Safety Score.
Lost money or shared details on buycandywarehouse.shop? Do this now
Act quickly: the first hours matter most for a chargeback.
- Call your bank or card issuer now
Ask them to dispute the charge or open a chargeback; the sooner you act, the better your odds. Card payments can often be reversed. Bank transfers and gift cards are harder, but report them to your bank too. Crypto payments usually cannot be reversed: report the wallet address and transaction ID to the exchange you sent from.
- Change any password you entered
If you entered a password on buycandywarehouse.shop, change it there and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. Keep screenshots, order confirmations and messages as evidence.
- Report the site
Reports help get scam sites taken down faster and warn other people.
- Report the domain to its registrar
Dynadot Inc. registered this domain. ICANN's lookup shows the registrar's abuse contact.
- Ignore anyone offering to recover your money
"Recovery" services or agents who contact you, or ask for a fee up front, are almost always a second scam aimed at victims. Your bank's dispute process and the official reporting services never charge a fee in advance.

01 · Investigation Brief
Investigation Brief
This is a transaction-oriented candy shop with product browsing, a cart, and shopping calls to action. It is high risk because three independent antivirus families reported adverse results, while the 83-day-old domain provides no phone number or postal address on the captured page and uses no contact email on its own domain.
Strong security warnings and weak business transparency
Three independent antivirus families classified the domain adversely, including malicious or phishing findings. The saved observation is stale, so its timing should be confirmed, but the detections remain substantial evidence against trusting the shop.
The captured page showed no domain-based contact email, phone number, or operator postal address. That leaves shoppers without basic, readily verifiable business contact details.
The domain is only 83 days old, and research links it by shared IP addressing to several other shop hostnames. Shared hosting does not prove fraud by itself, but it adds context to the stronger security detections and transparency concerns.
Encryption and one clean check do not resolve the operator risk
The site had a valid encrypted connection, and one browser-protection check returned no warning. Those checks indicate encrypted transport and no detection by that particular service; they do not outweigh the three adverse antivirus results or establish that the shop operator is trustworthy.
Why the score is 24
3 independent antivirus families reported an adverse result. This comes from a saved antivirus observation rather than a new submission, so treat the detection as real but confirm the timing. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

- 02One public warning in public web research: "Two other host names, along with `crealityglobal.shop`, `n2nstudio.shop` and `buycandywarehouse.shop`, also share IP numbers with `thekoihappiness.shop`."
- 03The captured page had no domain-based email, listed phone number, or visible operator postal address.
If this is a scam — what it means for you
The observed shopping path leads visitors toward a transaction
A visitor can inspect a priced candy listing through “Quick View,” proceed through “Shop Now,” and use the site's cart, placing them into a purchase flow on the flagged domain.
Avoid purchasing from this site or entering payment, login, or personal information. Use a retailer with independently verifiable contact details and an established reputation instead.
Web research findings
Independent findings for buycandywarehouse.shop, including public complaints, named review sources, registration records, and look-alike-domain evidence. A missing result is shown as unverified, never converted into a clean bill of health.

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.

- Oct 11, 2026Saved security review — Rated High Risk
The completed checks from this saved scan are detailed above.
buycandywarehouse.shop was registered very recently when this review was saved and was already flagged. Freshly-registered domains are disproportionately used for scams, and a young domain with active threat signals warrants extra caution.
Contact Verification
Saved contact details can help identify the operator. Their presence supports traceability; it does not prove the business is trustworthy.
- No contact email uses the site's own domain.
- No phone number listed on the captured page.
- No operator postal address visible on the captured page.
Domain & Encryption
A certificate issued weeks or days before the scan on a domain registered recently is common on short-lived sites, though new legitimate sites look the same.
