Verdict

New domain impersonates government HR portal to harvest staff credentials

epahr.org presents itself as an Environmental Protection Authority HR login page but is only 7 days old, hosted on an IP with abuse reports, and uses a generic template. The site asks visitors to enter Staff ID, email, or phone number to receive a one-time passcode, with no verifiable government connection.

Do not enter any credentials on this site. If you work for the Environmental Protection Authority, use your organization's verified internal HR portal accessed through official channels.

01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

epahr.org presents itself as an Environmental Protection Authority HR login page but is only 7 days old, hosted on an IP with abuse reports, and uses a generic template. The site asks visitors to enter Staff ID, email, or phone number to receive a one-time passcode, with no verifiable government connection.

Key evidence of impersonation

The registrable domain is only 7 days old, which is highly atypical for an official government HR portal that would normally use established domains with verifiable government affiliation.

The hosting IP has an abuse confidence score of 45/100 across 54 saved reports, indicating it may be part of a broader network associated with suspicious activity.

The login form requests 'Staff ID, email or contact number' to send a one-time passcode, directly collecting sensitive identifiers under the false pretext of an official EPA HR system.

Technical versus operator risk

Current automated scanners show no malicious detections on the multi-engine malware scan and no warnings from the browser threat feed, which is common for newly deployed credential harvesting pages that have not yet been reported.

The site uses a generic 'Lovable' template with an 'Edit with' link pointing to lovable.dev, inconsistent with professional branding expected of a national Environmental Protection Authority.

Why the score is 25

Login form requests Staff ID, email, or phone to receive passcode. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

Proceed with caution

Our automated review flagged enough risk that you should treat this site as unverified.

  1. Analyst recommendation

    Do not enter any credentials on this site. If you work for the Environmental Protection Authority, use your organization's verified internal HR portal accessed through official channels.

  2. Treat epahr.org as unverified

    Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.

  3. Verify the business through independent channels

    Check the company's social profiles, registry records, and search for recent news or reviews that are not hosted on the site itself.

  4. Never use irreversible payment methods

    Crypto, gift cards, wire transfers, and cash apps offer zero buyer protection. Use a credit card or PayPal if you must pay.

  5. Share your experience

    If you have additional context, drop a comment below or post on the MalwareTips forum.

07 · Safety FAQ

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers reflect the saved verdict and evidence in this report.

Is epahr.org a scam or a legit website?
epahr.org raises serious red flags as a phishing & impersonation — do not enter your login or personal details. Our review tagged it for phishing. The domain is only 7 days old through Name.com, Inc. — a fresh registration is a classic scam fingerprint. It may not be an outright scam, but the risk is high enough that you should verify it independently before trusting it with money or data.
Is epahr.org safe to use?
epahr.org has a Safety Score of 25/100 (High Risk). Analysis coverage is complete at 100%. Avoid login, payment and downloads.
What should I do if I already gave my details to epahr.org?
If you've already paid or handed over details on epahr.org, act quickly. 1) Contact your bank or card issuer immediately and ask to dispute the charge or open a chargeback — the sooner you act, the better your odds. 2) Report the site to the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov, and in the UK to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. 3) If you entered a password, change it on epahr.org and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. 4) Watch your bank and email for follow-up fraud, and keep screenshots as evidence.
Can I get my money back from epahr.org?
Often yes, if you act fast. Payments made by credit or debit card can frequently be reversed through a chargeback or dispute — contact your bank right away and explain it was a fraudulent site. Bank transfers and gift-card or voucher payments are much harder to recover, but you should still report them to your bank and to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov) or Action Fraud (actionfraud.police.uk). Avoid any "refund" or "recovery" service that contacts you first — it's usually a follow-up scam.
Did epahr.org steal my password or personal information?
If you entered anything on epahr.org, assume it was captured. Phishing pages exist purely to harvest what you type — usernames, passwords, card numbers, or one-time codes. Change the password immediately on the real site and anywhere you reused it, enable two-factor authentication, and if you entered card or banking details, contact your bank about the risk of fraud. Also be alert for follow-up "security" calls or emails that try to exploit the same information.
How do I report epahr.org?
You can report epahr.org through several official channels: the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov, and — in the UK — Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. You can also flag it to Google Safe Browsing (safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish) so other browsers warn about it, and report it to the company being impersonated if there is one. Reporting helps get scam sites taken down faster.
Why does epahr.org look legitimate if it's a scam?
Modern scams are built to look convincing. A valid SSL padlock, a polished template, stock photos, fake reviews, and a trust badge can all be added in minutes and prove nothing about who runs the site. Scammers buy cheap domains, clone real designs, and copy legal pages wholesale. That's exactly why an automated review that checks the domain's age, hosting, blacklists, and behaviour — rather than just how the page looks — is more reliable than a first impression.
Has epahr.org been flagged by antivirus engines?
No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report epahr.org as clean. That's a good sign, though antivirus coverage is only one of the many signals we weigh, and brand-new scam sites can appear clean before vendors catch up.
Is epahr.org on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — epahr.org is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
How old is the epahr.org domain?
epahr.org is 7 days old, registered on August 16, 2026 through Name.com, Inc.. Scam sites are very often freshly registered and short-lived, so an age under six months is a reason for extra caution.
Does epahr.org have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — epahr.org presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, valid for another 82 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".
How often is the epahr.org report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on August 23, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about epahr.org has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
