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.

Our analysis identified this site as a phishing threat based on a high consensus among our antivirus partners. Five different security engines, including Sophos, Netcraft, and Emsisoft, have explicitly flagged the URL as malicious or phishing. The site is hosted on a free GitHub Pages subdomain, a common tactic used by attackers to leverage a trusted domain's reputation for hosting temporary scams. There is no evidence of a legitimate business or service associated with this specific user-created path. Given the active detections and the hosting environment, the site poses a significant risk to user data.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site is hosted on a personal GitHub Pages repository under the username 'kkotwal961-pixel'. This environment is frequently abused to host phishing forms or credential harvesters because the main 'github.io' domain is generally trusted by browsers.

Infrastructure

The page is served from IP 185.199.108.153, which is part of the standard GitHub Pages infrastructure. While the IP itself is legitimate, it has a moderate abuse score due to the high volume of malicious content frequently hosted on free subdomains.

Domain History

The specific subdomain has no established history or global traffic ranking. It was likely created recently for a specific campaign, as evidenced by the lack of any historical data or business registration.

Web Reputation

The reputation is severely compromised by active detections. Sophos, Netcraft, G-Data, Emsisoft, and alphaMountain.ai all classify this specific path as a phishing or malicious threat. No positive reputation signals exist to counter these findings.
