Confidence
The domain hosts the official e-government site for Moscow residents, confirmed across multiple government and reference sources. Browser blocklists returned clean and the hosting IP shows zero abuse reports. The two scam reports describe phishing attempts that pretend to be from mos.ru rather than any problem with the domain. Positive app reviews and millions of downloads further support legitimate use by over 12 million monthly visitors. Minor complaints exist but relate to typical service issues, not fraud. No clone indicators or business-registration red flags apply because this is a public government entity.

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 mos.ru and not a lookalike like m-os.ru.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.

Final Verdict·mos.ru
SAFE

mos.ru is the official portal of the Mayor and Government of Moscow for city services. The two scam mentions are official warnings about impersonators sending fake login messages, not issues with the site itself. Use the real domain directly and ignore unsolicited contact claiming to be from mos.ru.

Visit mos.ru directly by typing the address yourself. Never click links in unsolicited emails or messages claiming to be from the portal.
