Confidence
The domain has been active for over five years, which is a strong indicator of a stable business rather than a temporary scam site. Our research confirmed that the site belongs to BRUSA SRL, a registered Italian company with a physical presence in Biella. The business details, including the VAT number and physical address, are transparently listed and match official records. Furthermore, the site has been featured in reputable publications like Vanity Fair Italy as a recommended source for artisanal sweets. While a few antivirus engines flagged the site, these appear to be isolated false positives given the overwhelming evidence of legitimate operation.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on spacciobrusa.com and not a lookalike like s-pacciobrusa.com.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.

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 found no threat indicators on spacciobrusa.com. The site appears legitimate based on the signals we checked, but always stay alert for phishing emails that spoof real domains.
  • spacciobrusa.com passed our automated security checks with a trust score of 70/100. No antivirus engines or major blacklists flagged the site at the time of the last scan.
  • Yes. spacciobrusa.com presents a valid TLSv1.3 certificate issued by Let's Encrypt · YE1, expiring in 77 days. Note that SSL only encrypts the connection — it does not guarantee that the site itself is trustworthy.
  • spacciobrusa.com is 5.6 years old, registered on 11/17/2020 through Register SPA. Scam domains are often freshly registered — a site under 6 months old warrants extra caution.
  • 4 out of 95 antivirus engines in our malware network flagged spacciobrusa.com as malicious or suspicious (3 outright malicious). Even one detection is a meaningful signal.
  • No. spacciobrusa.com is not currently listed on the major browser blocklist feeds that modern browsers use.
  • spacciobrusa.com resolves to an IP operated by OVH Srl in FR (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 June 25, 2026. The verdict and evidence above reflect that scan and do not change on their own. If circumstances around spacciobrusa.com have changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan, which re-runs every check from scratch and publishes an updated report.
