No — photosoaz.goaper.com scored 1/100 on our trust scale. We detected active threat indicators, so we recommend avoiding the site entirely.

Does photosoaz.goaper.com have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes. photosoaz.goaper.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R13, expiring in 35 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.

Where is photosoaz.goaper.com hosted?

photosoaz.goaper.com resolves to an IP operated by Brander Group Inc. in US (usage type: Content Delivery Network). 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.

How often is the photosoaz.goaper.com report updated?

This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 15, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around photosoaz.goaper.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.

Confidence

The site operates as a free photo gallery for French local sports events—trail running, football matches, and archery competitions. Social media posts from verified sports club accounts (AC Redon, @soaz_photos on Instagram) actively promote the site and link to specific photo galleries, confirming legitimate use. BitDefender and G-Data flagged it as phishing, but this appears to be a false positive: the page contains no login forms, credential-harvest patterns, or phishing infrastructure. The subdomain structure (photosoaz.goaper.com) and minimal contact information may have triggered overly broad heuristics in those engines. Our sandbox did not flag it, the hosting IP has zero abuse reports, and SSL is valid. Web research found zero scam reports, complaints, or negative mentions across French-language and English sources. The visual design is professional and consistent with a legitimate photography portfolio.

Full dossier

Analysis complete

Page Content

The site displays a French-language sports photography portfolio titled 'Photo Soaz' with navigation menus for different event categories (FCAV Seniors, Jeunes, ACR, trail running, archery). Content consists of dated photo galleries from 2026 events, with publication timestamps and event names. No login forms, payment elements, countdown timers, or pressure tactics are present.

Infrastructure

Hosted on IP 145.223.124.180 with zero abuse reports and a clean abuse score. SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt is valid with 35 days remaining. The domain uses a subdomain structure (photosoaz.goaper.com) under goaper.com. External resources loaded include WordPress stats, Google Fonts, and Hostinger-hosted assets—all standard for a WordPress-based site.

Domain History

WHOIS data is unavailable, preventing direct age confirmation. However, the site's content references events dated June 2026 and is actively promoted on social media accounts with recent posts, indicating ongoing operation. The domain is not indexed in global traffic rankings, consistent with a niche local photography site.

Web Reputation

Two antivirus engines (BitDefender, G-Data) flagged the domain as phishing; ESET marked it suspicious. This appears to be a false positive, as the site exhibits no phishing characteristics—no credential forms, no impersonation, no malicious redirects. Our sandbox did not flag it. Web research found zero scam reports, complaints, or negative mentions. The site is actively referenced and promoted by legitimate local French sports clubs on Instagram and Facebook, with no evidence of fraud or deception.

Risk Factors

No business registration or formal company details found; appears to be a personal photographer's portfolio rather than a registered business.

Not indexed in global traffic rankings, indicating low visibility outside local French sports community.

Positive Signals

Professional portfolio design with consistent branding, typography, and navigation—no visual scam indicators.
Zero scam reports, complaints, or negative mentions found across web searches in French and English.
Valid SSL certificate and clean hosting IP with zero abuse reports.

AI Recommendation
