Is feroxtrade.com a scam?

Our automated security review flags feroxtrade.com as dangerous. Multiple threat indicators were detected — treat the site as a scam until proven otherwise.

Is feroxtrade.com safe to use?

No — feroxtrade.com scored 1/100 on our trust scale. We detected active threat indicators, so we recommend avoiding the site entirely.

Does feroxtrade.com have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes. feroxtrade.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YR1, expiring in 69 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.

How old is the feroxtrade.com domain?

feroxtrade.com is 6.0 years old, registered on 7/3/2020 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.

Has feroxtrade.com been flagged by antivirus engines?

8 out of 92 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged feroxtrade.com as malicious or suspicious (7 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.

Is feroxtrade.com on any phishing or malware blacklists?

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

Where is feroxtrade.com hosted?

feroxtrade.com resolves to an IP operated by Wix.com Ltd. in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). 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.

How often is the feroxtrade.com report updated?

This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 19, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around feroxtrade.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.

Confidence

The domain feroxtrade.com belongs to a verified business, Ferox Trading Limited, which has been active in Malta since 2020. Our research confirms the company is registered (C 97001) and participates in official public procurement for medical and energy supplies. However, seven different antivirus engines, including BitDefender, CyRadar, and Dr.Web, currently flag the site as malicious or hosting malware. This contradiction suggests the website might be compromised or is hosting scripts that trigger security alerts. While the business entity is real, the digital infrastructure is currently unsafe for visitors.

Full dossier

Analysis complete

Page Content

The website presents as a B2B and B2G service provider specializing in procurement, sourcing, and logistics for sectors like health and energy. It uses a Wix-based framework and includes standard corporate sections like 'About Us' and 'Verticals'. We noted that the contact email listed in the footer contains a typo (info@feroxtrade.com.com), which is unusual for a professional firm.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on a Wix-related IP address (185.230.63.186) with a valid Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. While the hosting IP has a low abuse score, the primary concern is the high number of detections from our antivirus partners. These flags often indicate the presence of malicious JavaScript or unauthorized redirects.

Domain History

The domain was registered in 2018 and has been active for nearly six years. This longevity typically signals a stable business, and WHOIS records align with the company's established history in Malta. There is no evidence of the domain being recently repurposed for a scam.

Web Reputation

The company maintains a professional presence on LinkedIn and appears in official Maltese government gazettes for contract awards. Despite this corporate legitimacy, the current technical reputation is poor due to the malware detections. No consumer complaints or scam reports were found on independent review sites.

Risk Factors

Seven antivirus engines (including BitDefender and Dr.Web) flag the site as malicious.
The site is flagged for malware by ADMINUSLabs and CyRadar.
Contact email on the page contains a suspicious '.com.com' typo.
The site lacks a global traffic index, suggesting very low visitor volume despite its age.

Positive Signals

Verified business registration in Malta (C 97001) since 2020.
Documented history of winning legitimate government contracts and public tenders.
Domain is over five years old and not a recent 'throwaway' registration.
No scam reports or negative reviews found on independent trust aggregators.

AI Recommendation

Do not enter any sensitive information or download attachments from this site. While the company is a real business, the website is currently flagged for malware and may be unsafe to browse.
