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 of our antivirus partners — ADMINUSLabs, CyRadar, Emsisoft, Gridinsoft, Netcraft, and VIPRE — have flagged this domain as malicious, phishing, or malware-related. The reputation score of -55 reflects consistent abuse signals. Independent review aggregators rate it 2/100, indicating extremely high risk. The domain lacks any legitimate business presence or traffic ranking. The SSL certificate is valid but recent (74 days to expiry), a common pattern in temporary malicious infrastructure. The hosting IP shows minimal abuse history, but the concentration of antivirus detections overrides this — the threat is in the domain's content or behaviour, not the IP itself.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The domain appears to be a storage service subdomain (eu2.contabostorage.com suggests a Contabo hosting infrastructure clone or impersonation). No legitimate business information, privacy policy, or terms of service are evident.

Infrastructure

Hosted on IP 185.219.143.85 with valid SSL from ZeroSSL. The IP has a low abuse score (4/100) and only 1 abuse report, suggesting the hosting provider itself is not flagged — the malicious activity is domain-specific.

Domain History

WHOIS data is unavailable, preventing verification of registration date or registrant details. This opacity is common in malicious domains. The SSL certificate expires in 74 days, consistent with short-lived phishing or malware infrastructure.

Web Reputation

Six antivirus engines detect malicious or phishing content. Independent trust aggregators assign a score of 2/100. The domain is not indexed in global traffic rankings, indicating no legitimate user base or SEO presence.
