Subscription trap / hidden billing
16 of 92 antivirus engines flag this page as malicious. A "free trial" or "$1 trial" combined with auto-renew language means your card will be charged repeatedly. Call your bank to block the merchant if you signed up.
Is ig.do legit or a scam?
LikeDo at ig.do shows phishing flags from 16 engines plus subscription-trap tactics on a low-reputation IP.
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.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The page claims to bundle short links, domain emails, and AI agents yet triggers multiple scam-family matches for countdown urgency, push-notification spam, and hidden subscription traps. Sixteen of 92 antivirus engines returned malicious or phishing detections including BitDefender and alphaMountain.ai. The hosting IP carries 64 abuse reports despite a zero abuse score. No business contact details appear and the site impersonates MT Intelligence/MT Intelligence branding on a non-official domain. These concrete signals outweigh the clean browser blocklist result.

Subscription trap / negative-option billing
This page combines a "free trial" or "$1 trial" pitch with auto-renew / rebill language — a classic negative-option billing trap.
- Do not interact with ig.do
Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.
- Your card will be charged the full price after the trial
Most subscription traps bill the full amount ($49-$149) 14 days after sign-up, and every month thereafter. "Cancel anytime" often means you must call a foreign support line that's deliberately hard to reach.
- If you already signed up — call your bank today
Ask your bank to block future charges from the merchant and dispute any charges already made. Many banks will issue a new card number to prevent recurring billing. Save the confirmation email as evidence.
- OpenReport the billing scheme
Report to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov) or your national consumer-protection body — subscription traps are specifically illegal in most jurisdictions when the auto-bill terms aren't clearly disclosed.
