  1. What the site claims

    Independent evidence classifies the site as content, but the page's own claim could not be captured.

  2. What we observed

    The page itself could not be fully inspected, so the report relies on the other saved checks.

  3. What independent research found

    1 external finding were saved and compared with the page evidence.

  4. What remains unverified

    2 of the 4 applicable core capabilities did not complete, so those gaps remain visible in the coverage ledger.

The plumbing behind the site — who registered it, how it’s encrypted, where it’s hosted, and where it links out. A valid certificate or a calm server doesn’t mean the business is honest — scam sites pass these checks too. Use this to corroborate the verdict, not to overturn it.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

Verify before you trust

We couldn't gather enough signal for a confident verdict — tread carefully.

  1. Find the company through independent channels

    Search for the business on LinkedIn, an official registry (Companies House, OpenCorporates, SEC EDGAR), or via the brand's known social channels. If you can't trace a real entity, that itself is a red flag.

  2. Never pay by crypto, gift card, or bank transfer

    If the site forces an irreversible payment method, stop. Cards and PayPal give you chargeback protection — irreversible methods don't.

  3. Ask the forum

    Post the URL in the MalwareTips Scam Reports forum — experienced members often recognise patterns immediately.

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 hentai-foundry.com a scam or is it safe?
hentai-foundry.com has a Safety Score of 82/100 (Low Risk). The saved checks found no material threat, but the report did not meet every requirement for the highest Safe tier. Use normal caution and independently verify the operator before irreversible payments or unusually sensitive actions.
Is hentai-foundry.com safe to use?
hentai-foundry.com has a Safety Score of 82/100 (Low Risk). Analysis coverage is strong at 83%. Normal caution; verify sensitive actions.
Has hentai-foundry.com been flagged by antivirus engines?
No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report hentai-foundry.com 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 hentai-foundry.com on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — hentai-foundry.com 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 hentai-foundry.com domain?
hentai-foundry.com is 20.1 years old, registered on June 24, 2006 through Internet Domain Service BS Corp. A multi-year registration history is one of the stronger signals against a scam, though it's never a guarantee on its own — established domains can still be misused.
Does hentai-foundry.com have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — hentai-foundry.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YR1, valid for another 44 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".
Where is hentai-foundry.com hosted?
hentai-foundry.com resolves to an IP operated by OVH Hosting, Inc. in CA (Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
Is hentai-foundry.com a well-known website?
Yes — hentai-foundry.com ranks in the global top 100,000 most-visited sites, which means it has substantial real-world traffic. Genuine popularity doesn't automatically make a site safe, but throwaway scam domains almost never reach this level of traffic, so it's a meaningful point in the site's favour.
How often is the hentai-foundry.com report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on August 6, 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 hentai-foundry.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
