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
The site triggers critical security alerts across our antivirus network, with 15 engines including BitDefender, CyRadar, and CRDF flagging it as malicious. Major browser blocklists have also blacklisted the domain for hosting unwanted software. While the domain itself is over eight years old, the current content shows several red flags, such as a countdown timer used to create artificial urgency. The contact information is inconsistent, using an email address that does not match the site's domain. These technical detections combined with suspicious page elements indicate the site is currently being used for malicious purposes.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The site presents itself as 'Soft Project LTD,' a professional technology consulting firm. However, it employs high-pressure tactics like a countdown timer, which is a common hallmark of scam sites. The contact email provided (mmateev@softproject.technology) does not match the domain (soft-project.org), a discrepancy often seen when attackers hijack or repurpose old domains.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on IP 116.251.205.124. While the IP itself has a clean reputation, the domain is actively flagged by major browser blocklists for 'Unwanted Software.' It uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, which provides encryption but does not verify the legitimacy of the business operating the site.

Domain History

The domain was registered over 3,000 days ago (roughly 8 years). While age usually suggests trust, it is common for malicious actors to acquire or compromise aged domains to bypass basic security filters. The lack of a global traffic index suggests the site has very little legitimate visitor activity despite its age.

Web Reputation

The reputation is severely compromised. 15 out of 92 security vendors have issued malicious or malware verdicts. Specific detections from ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, and Chong Lua Dao confirm that the site is part of a known threat cluster. There are no positive trust signals from independent review aggregators to counter these findings.

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 soft-project.org as dangerous. Multiple threat indicators were detected — treat the site as a scam until proven otherwise.
  • No — soft-project.org scored 1/100 on our trust scale. We detected active threat indicators, so we recommend avoiding the site entirely.
  • Yes. soft-project.org presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · R12, expiring in 32 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • soft-project.org is 8.3 years old, registered on 3/25/2018 through Tucows Domains Inc.. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • 17 out of 92 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged soft-project.org as malicious or suspicious (15 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.
  • Yes. The major browser blocklist feeds flagged soft-project.org with the following threat categories: UNWANTED_SOFTWARE. This protects billions of browser users from visiting the site.
  • soft-project.org resolves to an IP operated by 39-41 Tsvetna gradina str in HK (usage type: Data Center/Web Hosting/Transit). 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 July 3, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around soft-project.org have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
