IQ test site linked to complaints of hidden monthly subscription charges
IQ Center offers an online IQ test with the pitch "Curious About Your IQ Score?". Technical checks are mostly clean, but published customer reviews for a site with the same IQ Center name describe paying a tiny fee for results and then being charged nearly 40 euro a month without clear notice. That billing pattern, not a technical threat, is why the score is in the High Risk band.

Investigation Brief
IQ Center offers an online IQ test with the pitch "Curious About Your IQ Score?". Technical checks are mostly clean, but published customer reviews for a site with the same IQ Center name describe paying a tiny fee for results and then being charged nearly 40 euro a month without clear notice. That billing pattern, not a technical threat, is why the score is in the High Risk band.
Reviews describe a small fee followed by a recurring charge
One an independent review platform's reviewer says they took the test, paid 0.5 euro for the result, and two days later found an automatic monthly subscription of nearly 40 euro, set up as a "trial" with no notification or confirmation.
An independent review platform summary of customer feedback also says consumers report substantial charges shortly after a small initial payment, with little or no warning about a subscription. These reviews are filed under the iqcenter.net name, which uses the same IQ Center brand.
Clean technical checks do not address the billing risk
The browser threat feed gave no warning and the connection is properly encrypted. One antivirus engine out of 93 marked the address as suspicious, which is an isolated result rather than a consensus.
The domain has been registered for a very long time. However, the site's own contact details and terms were not fully reviewed, so we could not check how clearly any subscription is disclosed at checkout.
Why the score is 42
1 antivirus result marked the URL as suspicious. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

Domain & infrastructure
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.
