01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

The site has been active since 2011 and offers paid digital extras, but multiple users report purchases not appearing in their accounts and unresponsive support for refunds.

User reports of missing purchases and support delays

A forum post describes a completed purchase of the mecaface add-on that never appeared in the buyer’s account, followed by an unanswered email requesting a refund.

A second post complains about repeated failures installing the Blender add-on and inability to export models in FBX format, indicating ongoing technical friction for paying users.

Hosting reputation and domain history

The site’s IP carries an abuse confidence score of 91/100, though this is common for shared hosting environments and does not by itself indicate malicious intent.

The domain is over 14 years old, providing a baseline of operational continuity that contrasts with the recent customer-service complaints.

Why the score is 62

Documented case of paid add-on not delivered to account and no reply to refund request. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

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.

mecabricks.com is an established domain now carrying threat signals. An older domain that starts tripping security checks is a classic pattern for an asset that was sold, repurposed, or compromised — the age alone is not reassurance.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

Proceed with caution

Our automated review flagged enough risk that you should treat this site as unverified.

  1. Analyst recommendation

    Review the site’s refund policy and test support responsiveness before purchasing digital add-ons; consider smaller test transactions first.

  2. Treat mecabricks.com as unverified

    Do not enter credentials or send money until you have independently verified the business.

  3. Verify the business through independent channels

    Check the company's social profiles, registry records, and search for recent news or reviews that are not hosted on the site itself.

  4. Never use irreversible payment methods

    Crypto, gift cards, wire transfers, and cash apps offer zero buyer protection. Use a credit card or PayPal if you must pay.

  5. Share your experience

    If you have additional context, drop a comment below or post on the MalwareTips forum.

07 · Safety FAQ

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers reflect the saved verdict and evidence in this report.

Is mecabricks.com a scam or is it safe?
There isn't enough evidence yet for us to give mecabricks.com a confident verdict, so treat it with caution. The domain is 14.7 years old. Until it can be independently verified, don't enter passwords, card details, or send money, and confirm the company through channels you find yourself rather than links on the site.
Is mecabricks.com safe to use?
mecabricks.com has a Safety Score of 62/100 (Moderate Risk). Analysis coverage is complete at 100%. Do not trust blindly; analysis may be limited.
Has mecabricks.com been flagged by antivirus engines?
No — all 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network currently report mecabricks.com as clean. That's a good sign, though antivirus coverage is only one of the many signals we weigh, and brand-new scam sites can appear clean before vendors catch up.
Is mecabricks.com on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — mecabricks.com is not currently on the major browser blocklist feeds that Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge rely on. Note that blocklists can lag behind brand-new scam domains, so "not listed" is reassuring but not a guarantee on its own.
How old is the mecabricks.com domain?
mecabricks.com is 14.7 years old, registered on December 9, 2011 through OVH sas. A multi-year registration history is one of the stronger signals against a scam, though it's never a guarantee on its own — established domains can still be misused.
Does mecabricks.com have a valid SSL certificate?
Yes — mecabricks.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YE1, valid for another 75 days. Important caveat: SSL only encrypts the connection between you and the site — it does not verify who runs it. Almost all scam sites now have valid SSL too, so a padlock alone never means "safe".
Where is mecabricks.com hosted?
mecabricks.com resolves to an IP operated by OVH SAS in FR (Content Delivery Network). Hosting location alone doesn't make a site good or bad — but hosting that doesn't match a brand's claimed country, or that sits on networks known for abuse, is one of the many signals we weigh alongside the verdict above.
How often is the mecabricks.com report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on August 29, 2026, and the verdict reflects that point in time. Scam sites change fast — they can go live, get flagged, or vanish within days — so if you believe something about mecabricks.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
