Is energy.co.kr a scam?

Our automated security review marked energy.co.kr as suspicious. Several warning signs were detected; it may still turn out legitimate, but you should verify it through independent channels before trusting it with money or credentials.

Is energy.co.kr safe to use?

energy.co.kr currently scores 52/100 on our trust scale. We found enough warning signals to recommend caution. Verify the site through independent channels before entering credentials or money.

Does energy.co.kr have a valid SSL certificate?

No. energy.co.kr has an invalid or broken SSL certificate. Browsers will display a security warning and we recommend avoiding the site.

Has energy.co.kr been flagged by antivirus engines?

No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report energy.co.kr as clean.

Is energy.co.kr on any phishing or malware blacklists?

No. energy.co.kr is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.

Where is energy.co.kr hosted?

energy.co.kr resolves to an IP operated by Korea Telecom in KR (usage type: Fixed Line ISP). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad, but unusual geography for a brand's claimed country is one of many signals we weigh.

This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 13, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around energy.co.kr have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.

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.

Confidence

The domain resolves to a standard HTTP 404 error page with no functional content accessible. The SSL certificate expired 232 days ago, issued by a non-standard certificate authority (Turing Crypto GmbH), which raises infrastructure concerns. Our antivirus network and browser blocklists show no malicious flags, and the hosting IP has a clean abuse reputation. Web research indicates the domain is associated with a Korean energy publication called 월간전기 (Monthly Electricity), which publishes legitimate-sounding articles on energy, electronics, and industry news. However, no business registration details, WHOIS information, or company contact data could be verified. The combination of an expired certificate, inaccessible content, and lack of verifiable business legitimacy creates uncertainty about the site's current operational status and trustworthiness.

Full dossier

Analysis complete

Page Content

The page displays a standard HTTP 404 Not Found error. No functional content, navigation, or business information is accessible. According to our research, the domain is associated with a Korean publication covering energy and technology topics, but this content is not currently reachable at the root URL.

Infrastructure

The domain uses IP 112.175.14.203 (South Korea), which has a clean abuse reputation (0/100 score, no reports). However, the SSL certificate is invalid and expired 232 days ago, issued by Turing Crypto GmbH under a non-standard certificate authority. This certificate expiry is a significant red flag for any e-commerce or credential-handling site.

Domain History

WHOIS information is unavailable, preventing verification of domain registration date, registrant details, or administrative contacts. The domain is not indexed in global traffic rankings. No business registration was found in South Korean company databases.

Web Reputation

Our antivirus network flagged 0 of 92 engines as malicious or suspicious. Browser blocklists show no hits. No scam reports, complaints, or negative reviews were found in web searches. The domain has no presence on independent review aggregators. Related Korean energy entities (e.g., energy.or.kr) are distinct and unaffiliated.

Risk Factors

WHOIS information unavailable; domain registration details cannot be verified.

If you need to contact the operator, seek alternative contact methods or verify the business through official South Korean energy sector channels.

Key findings

7 headline facts from open-web research

energy.co.kr hosts or redirects to content for "월간전기" (Monthly Electricity / Wolgan Jeon-gi), a Korean publication covering energy, electricity, new products, AI PCs, industrial solutions, and industry news.
The site uses a non-standard port (https://www.energy.co.kr:455/) for its main content, which includes articles on new product launches from companies like ASUS, Lenovo, and others.
No scam reports, complaints, or negative reviews were found in web searches for the domain combined with terms like scam, fraud, complaint, or Korean equivalents.
No positive customer reviews or Trustpilot/ScamAdviser listings identified; the domain has no presence on major review platforms.
Related Korean energy entities (e.g., 한국에너지공단 at energy.or.kr, GS Energy, SGC Energy) use similar but distinct domains; energy.co.kr is not affiliated with government agencies.
No business registration, WHOIS details, or company contact information surfaced in searches; domain age listed as unknown.
Content snippets from the site discuss legitimate-sounding topics such as pre-owned car sites, classic cars reviews, and legitimacy checks, but these appear to be published articles rather than core business.

Research summary

Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above

We searched scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general web sources for energy.co.kr and found no scam reports, complaints, or negative reviews. The domain appears to be associated with a Korean energy and technology publication (월간전기 / Monthly Electricity) that publishes articles on energy, electronics, and industry news. However, no business registration, company contact information, or WHOIS details could be verified. The absence of scam reports is not by itself a sign of trust when combined with the expired SSL certificate, inaccessible content, and lack of verifiable business legitimacy.
