Investigation Brief
vidy.my is a URL shortener that markets smart routing to show different content to real visitors versus bots. The domain is only 59 days old, has been flagged as suspicious by security scanners, and subdomains like cdn2.vidy.my have been linked to viral link traps on social media that impersonate legitimate services.
What the site actually does
The service lets users create short links that can display different content based on visitor characteristics such as device type, country, or whether the visitor appears to be a bot or moderator.
The site explicitly advertises that 'real visitors see your offer — bots and moderators see something else' and tracks clicks by source, location, and device.
Evidence of misuse and impersonation
Gridinsoft classifies the site as suspicious, citing a very young domain (59 days) and blacklist detections.
Indonesian news sources report that cdn2.vidy.my links have been used in viral social media campaigns that mimic the legitimate Videy.co video service, with warnings that similar-looking domains are not the real service.
Why the score is 42
Site markets ability to show different content to bots versus real visitors. Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

If this is a scam — what it means for you
How a visitor encounters this service
A user clicks a shortened link shared on social media that uses a vidy.my subdomain such as cdn2.vidy.my.
If this is a scam, how it works
The evidence-backed path
Each stage below is preserved from the grounded analysis and linked to saved evidence.
The link may appear to lead to a video or offer, but the actual destination can vary depending on whether the visitor is detected as a real person or a platform moderator.
The service tracks every click and can serve different content to different audiences, a technique commonly used to evade detection while distributing unwanted or deceptive material.
Avoid clicking or sharing links from vidy.my or its subdomains. The combination of cloaking features, recent domain registration, and documented misuse in impersonation campaigns makes this service unsuitable for legitimate use.
Web research findings
Independent findings for vidy.my, including public complaints, named review sources, registration records, and look-alike-domain evidence. A missing result is shown as unverified, never converted into a clean bill of health.

"Suspicious Website Gridinsoft currently classifies this site as Suspicious Website. The report highlights 1 blacklist detections, a very young domain (59 days), and no established public user-review history."
- LiputanPanturaopen
"Ada akun yang nyebarin link dengan domain cdn2.vidy.my. Ini beda sama layanan Videy yang asli yang pake domain videy.co. Jadi jangan langsung percaya kalau ada link yang namanya mirip-mirip, bisa jadi itu cuma situs lain yang tujuannya nggak"
- Menit.co.idopen
"Videy dikenal sebagai layanan untuk mengunggah dan membagikan video. Karena itu, kesamaan atau kemiripan nama domain tidak cukup untuk memastikan bahwa sebuah tautan dengan alamat “vidy.my” merupakan bagian dari layanan Videy.co."
