Score breakdown
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.

Tech-support scam — do not call
Flagged on major browser safety blocklists as social engineering. Microsoft, Apple, and your ISP never call or pop up to ask for remote access or payment. Don't call any numbers shown, don't install "support" tools, and close the page — ideally by ending the browser process.
Website Preview
Automated page render — captured in a safe sandbox. What an ordinary visitor would see when loading the site.
MT Intelligence
The page is a textbook example of a tech-support scam, featuring high-pressure alerts about 'Trozan.Dropper' and 'unwanted adware' that are entirely fabricated. Our antivirus network shows a strong consensus, with 13 engines including BitDefender, ESET, and Fortinet flagging the site as phishing or malicious. Major browser blocklists have also blacklisted the domain for social engineering. The site uses a complex, auto-generated subdomain on a cloud platform to bypass simple filters while impersonating official Microsoft branding. There is no legitimate business activity here; the sole purpose is to harvest credentials or lure victims into a paid 'repair' scam.
