Verdict

Fashion boutique site with limited transparency and moderate hosting risk

Sharmyn.co.za presents as an online fashion store selling women's sneakers, jewellery, handbags and accessories with South-Africa-wide Pudo delivery. The site shows no malware detections and uses valid TLS, but its hosting IP carries a 40/100 abuse score from 35 incidents and the site's own contact and policy pages were never fully reviewed.

Exercise caution: the combination of an abuse-flagged hosting IP and unreviewed contact pages means the operator's accountability cannot be confirmed. Consider using a payment method with buyer protection and verify delivery terms before purchase.

01 · Investigation Brief

Investigation Brief

Hosting reputation and technical checks

The IP address 216.24.57.1 that serves the site has an abuse confidence score of 40/100 and 35 saved incident reports, a moderate adverse signal for shared hosting environments.

The browser threat feed returned no threat warning, the TLS certificate is valid, and 93 antivirus engines flagged zero malicious or suspicious detections.

Operator identity and contact review status

The site's own contact details, About page and policy text were not reviewed in full, so no verified physical address, company registration or owner identity could be confirmed from the page content.

Vision observations show the store advertises women's sneakers, custom jewellery, handbags and fashion delivered SA-wide via Pudo lockers, but these claims remain unverified without the full policy text.

Why the score is 62

IP 216.24.57.1 carries a 40/100 abuse score and 35 incident reports. 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.

Safer Alternatives

Trying to shop safely? Use a safe option instead

Shopping for a deal? Stick to established retailers with real buyer protection — if a price looks too good to be true on an unknown store, it usually is.

Amazon

eBay
Money Back Guarantee on most purchases.
Walmart
Major retailer with established returns.
The brand's official site
Search the brand name + "official site" rather than trusting an ad or unknown store.

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 sharmyn.co.za a scam or is it safe?

There isn't enough evidence yet for us to give sharmyn.co.za a confident verdict, so treat it with caution. Until it can be independently verified, don't enter passwords, card details, or send money, and confirm the company through channels you find yourself rather than links on the site.

Is sharmyn.co.za safe to use?

sharmyn.co.za has a Safety Score of 62/100 (Moderate Risk). Analysis coverage is strong at 86%. Do not trust blindly; analysis may be limited.

Has sharmyn.co.za been flagged by antivirus engines?

No — all 57 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network that rated it report sharmyn.co.za as clean. 36 other engines had no rating for it. That's a good sign, though antivirus coverage is only one of the many signals we weigh, and brand-new scam sites can appear clean before vendors catch up.

Is sharmyn.co.za on any phishing or malware blacklists?

No — sharmyn.co.za 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.

Does sharmyn.co.za have a valid SSL certificate?

Yes — sharmyn.co.za presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Google Trust Services · WE1, valid for another 65 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 sharmyn.co.za hosted?

sharmyn.co.za resolves to an IP operated by Render in US (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 sharmyn.co.za report updated?

This report is a record of the scan run on October 12, 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 sharmyn.co.za has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
