This site seems to offer (information about) services like investing in gold, oil, currencies, and off-shore. We have written an article on how you can separate the legit from possible scammy websites that provide high risk financial services.
We have detected characteristics of a High Yield Investment Program or HYIP website. An HYIP site offers extremely high returns but 80% of the investors usually lose their money. Most HYIP are just scams, claiming to invest your money while just taking it. Our article "What are HYIPs and what are their risks?" discusses HYIP sites in more detail.We noticed that jobs are being offered where you get paid to click on ads, to fill in survey forms or to view online commercials. These kinds of jobs are often meaningless. The advertiser does not want to have clicks from people who are not really interested in his products or services. Likewise, surveys are meant to be filled in by people interested in a certain topic. In many cases companies offering rewards for these kind of activities are scams. They are often caught by the advertising networks quickly. In other cases, the company offering the jobs simply does not pay-out. Check out our blog post: "Pay to Click Scams" for more information.
We discovered keywords referring to Multi-level marketing. This kind of initiative can be very risky for participants. Especially if they are vague about the product or service actually being sold and if they require you to pay an upfront fee in order to participate. Please check our blog post on Multilevel Marketing Scams before you proceed.
This website provides a social networking or instant messaging platform. This type of site's content is mostly contributed by the community and may take the shape of a bulletin board system or a message stream. If there are any ads present on the site, however, you should always hover over the link to make sure the destination address (usually visible in the bottom-left corner) matches the link description. This precautionary measure ensures you do not get redirected to a malicious site.
We discovered that the website is rated as popular by Tranco with a score of 20. This means that the website is visited by quite a lot of people. In addition other websites find this website interesting and relevant and are linking to it. As a result we increased our review score.
We have detected that the website may offer cryptocurrency-related information, products and/or services. We consider these kinds of services to be high-risk for consumers. Even experts in cryptocurrencies have trouble distinguishing legit digital currency services from frauds and scams. We recommend you to be very diligent in checking website offering crypto-related services before you invest or use their services.

However, when considering downloading movies, please be aware that several scammers are offering illegal downloads of movies. It may be tight to a costly subscription service or the files may contain viruses or other malicious software. If you like to learn more, please check our blog post: "Alternatives for illegal downloading".We discovered that the domain of this website has been registered several years ago. Websites of scammers are usually very new. Still, you have to be careful. Scammers nowadays also buy old and existing websites to start their malpractice. Checking a website for other scam signals remains essential.
Technical Evaluation
We always check which other websites are registered by the same company the website is using. In this case we discovered that the registrar is facilitating a high number of websites that have a low to very low review score. This may be a coincidence but it may also be caused by lax "Know your customer" processes at the domain registration bureau. The trust score of the website has been reduced.
This webshop is offering payment methods that can be considered reasonably safe such as credit card and Paypal. These companies usually offer the option to get your money back in case the merchant does not deliver or the product has been broken during transportation. However, no payment method gives money back all the time. Make sure you file a complaint in time and be careful with the limitations your credit card or payment methods have set. Our blog post on Safe Payment Methods discusses all payment methods offered.
We found a valid SSL Certificate. An SSL certificate is used to secure communication between your computer and the website. There are different levels of SSL certification. A free one is also available and this one is used by online scammers. Still, not having an SSL certificate is worse than having one, especially if you have to enter your contact details.
