Confidence
The domain has been active for over 4,400 days and is operated by Kokucheese, Inc., a verified business based in Wakayama, Japan. Our analysis confirms the site is a major infrastructure piece for seminars and workshops, used by over 90,000 organizers. Technical signals are excellent, with a clean record across all antivirus engines and a high global traffic ranking. While the site integrates PayPal for payments, this is a standard official feature for ticket sales rather than an impersonation attempt. The presence of detailed legal disclosures required by Japanese law further confirms its legitimacy.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on kokuchpro.com and not a lookalike like k-okuchpro.com.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review found no threat indicators on kokuchpro.com. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • kokuchpro.com passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 90/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. kokuchpro.com presents a valid TLSv1.2 certificate issued by DigiCert Inc · RapidSSL TLS RSA CA G1, expiring in 40 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • kokuchpro.com is 12.1 years old, registered on 6/3/2014 through GMO Internet Group, Inc. d/b/a Onamae.com. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • No. All 92 antivirus engines in our malware network report kokuchpro.com as clean.
  • No. kokuchpro.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • kokuchpro.com resolves to an IP operated by SAKURA Internet Inc. in JP (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). 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.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 23, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around kokuchpro.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
