Is onstudies.co.ke legit or a scam?
Phishing site onstudies.co.ke flagged by Fortinet and listed in phishing blocklists as a credential theft domain.
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.
Analysis Summary
MT Intelligence
The site presents as a suspended account page but matches known phishing patterns. Fortinet explicitly flags it as phishing while Gridinsoft marks it suspicious. External reports from phishdestroy.io confirm it as a credential theft domain detected by multiple security vendors. The domain is over four years old yet shows no legitimate business registration or contact details. No positive reviews or trust signals appear in our research, and the combination of flags outweighs the clean IP reputation.
