Verdict

PokéTCG appears to be a trading-card storefront, with a limited historical warning

The available page evidence presents PokéTCG as an India-focused Pokémon and trading-card site using INR. No supplied evidence establishes phishing, malware delivery, or commercial fraud, although two saved antivirus results marked the URL suspicious; those results are stale and provide no specific harmful mechanism.

Use ordinary shopping precautions: confirm current contact and return information, pay with a method offering buyer protection, and stop if the site redirects elsewhere or requests an unusual payment method. The evidence supports a Low Risk rating rather than an unqualified Safe rating because of the unresolved historical warning.

01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

What the available evidence shows

The captured page identifies itself as PokéTCG and advertises authentic Pokémon and trading cards in India. It displays India as the market and INR as the currency.

The domain was 394 days old when measured. That supplies context but does not, by itself, verify the business or establish misconduct.

Technical warning versus demonstrated risk

Two saved antivirus results labeled the URL suspicious, but the observation is stale and does not identify phishing, a malicious download, or another concrete attack.

The hosting IP had an abuse-confidence score of 0/100 across eight saved reports. This is reassuring technical context, but it does not independently prove that purchases or customer service are safe.

Why the score is 78

The score combines saved deterministic evidence with the grounded analysis available for this report. 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.

Verify before you trust

We couldn't gather enough signal for a confident verdict — tread carefully.

Find the company through independent channels
Search for the business on LinkedIn, an official registry (Companies House, OpenCorporates, SEC EDGAR), or via the brand's known social channels. If you can't trace a real entity, that itself is a red flag.
Never pay by crypto, gift card, or bank transfer
If the site forces an irreversible payment method, stop. Cards and PayPal give you chargeback protection — irreversible methods don't.

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 poketcg.in a scam or is it safe?

poketcg.in has a Safety Score of 78/100 (Low Risk). The saved checks found no material threat, but the report did not meet every requirement for the highest Safe tier. Use normal caution and independently verify the operator before irreversible payments or unusually sensitive actions.

Is poketcg.in safe to use?

poketcg.in has a Safety Score of 78/100 (Low Risk). Analysis coverage is strong at 83%. Normal caution; verify sensitive actions.

Has poketcg.in been flagged by antivirus engines?

Yes. 2 of 91 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged poketcg.in as suspicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.

Is poketcg.in on any phishing or malware blacklists?

No — poketcg.in 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 poketcg.in domain?

poketcg.in is 1.1 years old, registered on August 26, 2025 through GoDaddy. 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 poketcg.in have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes — poketcg.in presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YE2, valid for another 62 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 poketcg.in hosted?

poketcg.in resolves to an IP operated by Shopify, Inc. in CA (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 poketcg.in report updated?

This report is a record of the scan run on September 24, 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 poketcg.in has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
