01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

Response Automation is a real electrical and smart-home automation company based in Aberfeldie, Victoria. The main page is presently unreachable due to a server-side misconfiguration, but the domain itself is tied to a verifiable local business with listed contact details.

Company details match a registered local business

Research records show the site belongs to a Melbourne-based electrical contractor offering smart lighting, home-automation, and security installations.

The company lists a physical address at 178 The Boulevard, Aberfeldie Victoria 3040, along with two Australian phone numbers and a local email address.

Main page returns a 403/404 error, but the domain is active

A screenshot of the live URL shows a generic “Page not found” response, indicating a temporary server misconfiguration rather than a parked or abandoned domain.

TLS inspection did not complete validation, but the domain itself remains registered and is referenced by other accessible sub-pages such as /about-us and /portfolio.

Why the score is 82

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.

Investigation story

The behavior, reputation, and operator evidence that explains how this site may affect a visitor.
  1. What the site claims

    Independent evidence classifies the site as content, but the page's own claim could not be captured.

  2. What we observed

    The page itself could not be fully inspected, so the report relies on the other saved checks.

  3. What independent research found

    2 external findings were saved and compared with the page evidence.

  4. What remains unverified

    2 of the 4 applicable core capabilities did not complete, so those gaps remain visible in the coverage ledger.

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.

06 · Your Next Move

Your next move

Verify before you trust

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

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Ask the forum

    Post the URL in the MalwareTips Scam Reports forum — experienced members often recognise patterns immediately.

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 responseautomation.com.au a scam or is it safe?
responseautomation.com.au has a Safety Score of 82/100 (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 responseautomation.com.au safe to use?
responseautomation.com.au has a Safety Score of 82/100 (Low Risk). Analysis coverage is partial at 62%. Normal caution; verify sensitive actions.
Is responseautomation.com.au on any phishing or malware blacklists?
No — responseautomation.com.au 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 responseautomation.com.au domain?
responseautomation.com.au is an unknown age through Web Address Registration Pty Ltd. 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 responseautomation.com.au have a valid SSL certificate?
No — responseautomation.com.au has an invalid or broken SSL certificate, so browsers will show a security warning. Combined with the other signals, we recommend avoiding it.
Where is responseautomation.com.au hosted?
responseautomation.com.au resolves to an IP operated by Dreamscape Networks Inc Australia in AU (Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). 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 responseautomation.com.au report updated?
This report is a record of the scan run on September 18, 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 responseautomation.com.au has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
