Confidence
The domain has been active for over five years and is registered to a verified legal entity, Ekatox Singapore Private Limited, which has been active since 2017. Our analysis shows no malicious flags from over 90 antivirus engines, and the site's primary function is to direct users to official app stores like Google Play. While the use of a free-mail contact address is less professional than a corporate one, it is common for smaller app development studios. The apps themselves maintain solid ratings from thousands of users, suggesting a legitimate product rather than a scam. We found no evidence of phishing, malware distribution, or fraudulent intent during our technical review.

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 ekatox.com and not a lookalike like e-katox.com.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.

  • No. ekatox.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
