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.

Confidence
Our analysis shows this site is a high-risk phishing threat. Nine independent security engines, including BitDefender, Fortinet, and G-Data, have explicitly flagged the URL as malicious or phishing. The site is hosted on GitHub Pages, a common tactic used by attackers to leverage a trusted domain's reputation to bypass basic filters. While the SSL certificate is technically valid, it does not verify the intent of the content. The lack of any global traffic ranking or business history further confirms this is a targeted malicious link rather than a legitimate service.

Analysis complete

Page Content

The page is hosted under a personal GitHub user profile, a technique frequently used to host lightweight phishing forms or credential harvesters. Because it uses the github.io domain, it often evades simple reputation-based blocks.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on GitHub's infrastructure (IP 185.199.109.153). While the hosting provider is legitimate, the specific repository has been weaponized for phishing. The IP itself has a history of abuse reports related to malicious hosting.

Domain History

The subdomain is tied to a specific GitHub account with no established commercial reputation. The technical data shows zero global traffic, which is typical for ephemeral phishing links sent via email or SMS.

Web Reputation

Reputation is critically low. BitDefender, Fortinet, G-Data, and alphaMountain.ai all categorize this specific path as a phishing threat. There are no positive signals from independent review aggregators to suggest this is a false positive.
