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
Six antivirus engines flag this domain as malicious or phishing, including ADMINUSLabs, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, and Gridinsoft. Independent trust aggregators assign it a 0/100 score and explicitly warn it may be a scam. The page title is generic ('Checkout'), the WHOIS owner is hidden behind a privacy service, and security researchers confirm the page follows a textbook credential-theft sequence: impersonation first, urgency second, data request last. The domain is 14 months old but shows no legitimate business activity, no user reviews, and no community discussion. The operator claims registration to a Canadian fintech entity (Skogos Solutions Inc), but the redacted contact details and phishing classification suggest this is either a compromised or fraudulent registration.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page title is 'Checkout' — a generic label typical of phishing templates. Security researchers confirm the page follows a credential-theft flow: impersonation of a legitimate service, creation of artificial urgency, then a request for sensitive data. A noindex directive is present, suggesting the operator does not want the page indexed by search engines.

Infrastructure

Hosted on Cloudflare (IP 104.21.9.192). SSL certificate is valid, issued by Google Trust Services, with 77 days remaining. The certificate is a Domain Validation (DV) type, which requires only proof of domain control — not business verification. Hosting IP has an abuse score of 0/100 but carries 2 abuse reports.

Domain History

Registered 2025-04-16 (approximately 14 months old). WHOIS details are redacted via a paid privacy service, hiding the true registrant. The parent domain pspy.io has average-to-good trust scores, but this subdomain (engine.pspy.io) is unrelated and shows no legitimate connection.

Web Reputation

Six antivirus engines flag the domain: ADMINUSLabs (malicious), Chong Lua Dao (malicious), CRDF (malicious), CyRadar (phishing), Gridinsoft (phishing), and alphaMountain.ai (suspicious). Independent trust sites assign a 0/100 score. No positive reviews, user discussions, or complaints exist on public forums. The operator claims registration to Skogos Solutions Inc, a FINTRAC-registered Canadian fintech company, but contact details are redacted and the phishing classification contradicts any legitimate business claim.

Risk Factors
7
  • Six antivirus engines detect the page as malicious or phishing, including tier-1 vendors ADMINUSLabs and CRDF.
  • Independent trust aggregators assign a 0/100 trust score and explicitly flag it as a potential scam.
  • Page follows a confirmed credential-theft pattern: impersonation → urgency → data request.
  • WHOIS owner identity is hidden behind a paid privacy service, preventing verification of the registrant.
  • Generic page title ('Checkout') and noindex directive are consistent with phishing templates designed to avoid search-engine indexing.
  • No legitimate business activity, user reviews, or community discussion found despite 14 months of registration.
  • Operator claims registration to a Canadian fintech entity, but redacted contact details and phishing classification suggest fraudulent or compromised registration.
Positive Signals
3
  • SSL certificate is valid and issued by a trusted Certificate Authority (Google Trust Services).
  • Hosting IP abuse score is 0/100, indicating no widespread abuse history on the IP itself.
  • Browser blocklists do not flag the domain, suggesting it has not yet been widely reported to major browsers.
