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.

Brand impersonation — not the real site

Typosquat clone of ProxySite.com offering free web proxy services with inherent data-interception risk and a high-risk safety rating from independent checkers. This page is styled as a brand but is not the brand's real site. Go to the official site directly, and treat any download, login, or payment request here as unsafe.

Visual Screenshot Analysis

We capture a fresh screenshot of the live page and ask a vision model to look for scam visual patterns — fake trust badges, countdown timers, overlay pop-ups, and visual clones of legitimate brands.

42
/ 100
Moderate visual risk

Visual red flags detected in the screenshot

The page presents as a free web proxy service with an intrusive pop-up overlay and a pre-filled third-party URL in the surf form; while no credential-harvesting forms or fake trust badges are visible, the core service model involves routing visitor traffic through operator-controlled servers, which carries inherent privacy risk.

What our vision model saw

6 signals

Top banner promotes 'Unblock Video Faster • Free »' as a persistent urgency/promotional hook

Pop-up overlay in bottom-right corner pushes a 'Free Proxy' upsell with a 'Get It Free' call-to-action button, partially obscuring page content

URL input field is pre-filled with 'http://www.find-ip.net', which could direct users to a third-party site without their explicit input

Site advertises routing user traffic through its own servers ('8 fast and reliable proxy servers in the US/UK'), raising data-interception risk

Body text references hiding IP and online activity while mentioning 'cards' in a partially visible column, suggesting potential data-harvesting framing

Overall design is functional but generic, consistent with low-budget proxy aggregator sites commonly used to intercept unencrypted browsing traffic

Confidence
The domain proxysite.one is a deliberate clone and typosquat of the established ProxySite.com, using nearly identical page titles, descriptions, and promotional language. Our scam-network fingerprint confirms the clone relationship and typosquat pattern. The site functions as a free web proxy that routes visitor traffic through its own servers — a model that inherently exposes users to potential data interception, especially for unencrypted traffic. An independent safety checker flagged the site with a 'worst Safety Score' and high-risk warning. The domain is privacy-protected, has no public business registration, and aggressively promotes a paid alternative (myiphide.com) throughout the page. While the site has been registered since 2019 and does not trigger major antivirus detections or browser blocklists, the combination of clone-site tactics, typosquatting, lack of transparency, and the inherent privacy risks of the proxy model create a high-risk profile.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents as a free web proxy aggregator, claiming to unblock blocked websites and hide user IP addresses. The page title and meta description closely mirror the legitimate ProxySite.com. A pre-filled URL field (pointing to find-ip.net) and an intrusive pop-up overlay promote a paid proxy app (myiphide.com). The site advertises 8 proxy servers in the US/UK and emphasizes anonymity and data protection, but provides no verifiable business contact information, owner details, or privacy policy specifics.

Infrastructure

Hosted on IP 172.67.139.74 with valid SSL (Google Trust Services, 60 days to expiry). The IP has zero abuse reports and a clean reputation score. External resources load from legitimate CDNs (Cloudflare, Google Fonts, Bootstrap) and third-party proxy domains (my-proxy.com, myiphide.com, unblockproxy.win). No malware or sandbox detections.

Domain History

Registered 2019-06-21 (2546 days old, approximately 7 years). Privacy protection is disabled in WHOIS, yet no business entity or owner information is publicly available. The domain is a confirmed typosquat and clone of proxysite.com, which has operated legitimately since ~2001. The .one TLD and near-identical branding suggest intentional confusion with the original.

Web Reputation

One independent safety checker (eveninsight.com) assigned a 'worst Safety Score' with a high-risk warning. A single positive review on softwarehope.com (4.5/5 from 1 verified user) exists, but this is outweighed by the safety warning. No widespread scam complaints on Reddit, Trustpilot, or major review platforms. Antivirus engines show minimal detections (1 malicious, 1 suspicious out of 92), and browser blocklists are clean.

Risk Factors
7
  • Confirmed typosquat and clone of the legitimate ProxySite.com, using nearly identical branding and page content to deceive users.

  • Independent safety checker assigned 'worst Safety Score' and flagged the site as high-risk.
  • No verifiable business registration, owner details, or transparent privacy policy; privacy-protected WHOIS despite being 7 years old.
  • Intrusive pop-up overlay and pre-filled third-party URL in the proxy form suggest aggressive user-manipulation tactics.
  • Aggressively promotes paid alternative (myiphide.com) throughout the page, consistent with upsell-scam patterns.
  • Used in contexts like Tamilrockers proxy lists, indicating association with copyright-circumvention infrastructure.
Positive Signals
5
  • Domain registered in 2019 and has been operational for 7 years, showing some longevity.

Brand impersonation detected

This page is styled as a known brand but is not the brand's real site.

  • Do not interact with proxysite.one

    Do not enter credentials, deposit money, download files, or install browser extensions from this site.

  • Go to the brand's real site directly

    Type the brand name into a search engine or open it from your bookmarks — don't use links from emails, SMS, ads, or social posts, which are the delivery vectors for impersonation.

  • Never download or sign in here

    Even if the page "just" offers a download or a giveaway, impersonation pages frequently deliver malware or set up follow-up phishing. Assume anything accepted from this site is hostile.

  • Report the impersonation to the brand

    Most major brands have a dedicated abuse or anti-phishing reporting channel — reporting helps them take the site down and protects other users.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about this site, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • Our automated security review flags proxysite.one as dangerous. Multiple threat indicators were detected — treat the site as a scam until proven otherwise.
  • No — proxysite.one scored 25/100 on our trust scale. We detected active threat indicators, so we recommend avoiding the site entirely.
  • Yes. proxysite.one presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, expiring in 60 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • proxysite.one is 7.0 years old, registered on 6/21/2019 through NameSilo, LLC. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • 2 out of 92 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged proxysite.one as malicious or suspicious (1 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.
  • No. proxysite.one is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • proxysite.one resolves to an IP operated by Cloudflare, 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.
  • This is a permanent record of the scan run on June 10, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around proxysite.one have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
