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.

Editorial security brief
Intelligence
High risktrust8/100
75%
Confidence
The page displays a default Virtualmin welcome message rather than any functional business site. The domain was registered on 11 October 2025 and carries no verifiable business registration. One antivirus engine flagged it as malicious while two others marked it as spam. The evidence package notes the domain is used for email hosting and is associated with messages about petroleum tank storage transactions. No scam reports or positive reviews appear in public sources. The combination of a new domain, missing business footprint, and email-related red flags raises moderate concern.
Risk Factors
4
  • Domain registered only 286 days ago with no business registration on file.
  • One antivirus engine flagged the domain as malicious; two others marked it as spam.
  • Evidence links the domain to petroleum-transaction emails typical of business email compromise attempts.
  • No contact information, phone, address, or verifiable business presence on the page.
Positive Signals
3
  • SSL certificate is valid and issued by Let's Encrypt.
  • No redirects or browser blocklist hits detected.
  • No scam reports or consumer complaints found in public sources.
Investigation notes

Page Content

The captured page is a standard Virtualmin server welcome screen stating that no website files have been uploaded yet. No business name, contact information, or product details are present. The page loads external fonts and Virtualmin resources but contains no functional storefront or login forms.

Infrastructure

The site is hosted on IP 198.23.185.216 with an abuse score of 33/100 and six prior abuse reports. SSL is valid and issued by Let's Encrypt with 68 days remaining. No redirects occur and the domain is not listed on major browser blocklists.

Domain History

The domain yanbussteel.com was registered 286 days ago on 11 October 2025 through Gransy, s.r.o. WHOIS privacy protection is disabled, yet no owner details are visible. No business registration records were located in any jurisdiction.

Web Reputation

One of 92 antivirus engines flagged the domain as malicious and two others marked it as spam. No scam reports, consumer complaints, or positive reviews were found across public sources. The domain appears primarily used for email rather than public web content.

What this means for you

Do not send money, share personal details, or click links from emails that reference this domain. The combination of a bare server page, recent registration, and suspicious email activity indicates elevated risk even though no active scam page is currently hosted.

Recommendation
Treat any emails or links from this domain with caution. Do not provide payment details or personal information until the domain hosts a verifiable business site with clear contact information.

Technical Details

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.

Contact Verification

We fetched the page and looked for real-world contact details. Legitimate businesses almost always publish an email on their own domain, a phone number, and a postal address. Scam shops usually don't.

Safety FAQ

Common questions, answered directly from the scan data above — so the answers always reflect the latest verdict on this page.

  • yanbussteel.com is a high-risk scam site — avoid interacting with it. 3 of 92 security engines flag it (1 as outright malicious). The domain is 9 months old through Gransy, s.r.o.. This pattern matches throwaway sites built to take money or data and disappear.
  • No — yanbussteel.com scored just 8/100 on our trust scale, and we detected active threat indicators. We recommend avoiding it entirely: don't log in, pay, download anything, or connect a wallet.
  • If you've already paid or handed over details on yanbussteel.com, act quickly. 1) Contact your bank or card issuer immediately and ask to dispute the charge or open a chargeback — the sooner you act, the better your odds. 2) Report the site to the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov or the FBI's IC3 at ic3.gov, and in the UK to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. 3) If you entered a password, change it on yanbussteel.com and anywhere you reused it, and turn on two-factor authentication. 4) Watch your bank and email for follow-up fraud, and keep screenshots as evidence.
  • Often yes, if you act fast. Payments made by credit or debit card can frequently be reversed through a chargeback or dispute — contact your bank right away and explain it was a fraudulent site. Bank transfers and gift-card or voucher payments are much harder to recover, but you should still report them to your bank and to the FTC (reportfraud.ftc.gov) or Action Fraud (actionfraud.police.uk). Avoid any "refund" or "recovery" service that contacts you first — it's usually a follow-up scam.
  • Just viewing a scam page is usually low-risk on an up-to-date browser — the real danger is what it asks you to DO (enter details, download a file, send money). If you downloaded anything, run a full antivirus scan and treat the file as untrusted. If you entered a password or card number, change the password everywhere you reused it and contact your bank.
  • You can report yanbussteel.com through several official channels: the U.S. FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) at ic3.gov, and — in the UK — Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. You can also flag it to Google Safe Browsing (safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish) so other browsers warn about it, and report it to the company being impersonated if there is one. Reporting helps get scam sites taken down faster.
  • Modern scams are built to look convincing. A valid SSL padlock, a polished template, stock photos, fake reviews, and a trust badge can all be added in minutes and prove nothing about who runs the site. Scammers buy cheap domains, clone real designs, and copy legal pages wholesale. That's exactly why an automated review that checks the domain's age, hosting, blacklists, and behaviour — rather than just how the page looks — is more reliable than a first impression.
  • Yes. 3 of 92 antivirus and blocklist engines in our malware network flagged yanbussteel.com, 1 of them as outright malicious. Even a single detection from a reputable engine is a meaningful warning, and multiple detections rarely happen by accident.
  • No — yanbussteel.com 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.
  • yanbussteel.com is 9 months old, registered on October 11, 2025 through Gransy, s.r.o.. 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.
  • yanbussteel.com resolves to an IP operated by NOHAVPS LLC 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.
  • This report is a record of the scan run on July 25, 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 yanbussteel.com has changed, MalwareTips staff can run a fresh scan that re-checks every signal from scratch and republishes an updated verdict.
