is brondan.com scam?

Yesterday I accessed www.brondan.com without a problem. Today Trend tells me this is a scam site? I can not verify as it is a new site. Did anyone order from brondan.com and did ger what they ordered?

Hi, remucon

 

Trend Micro categorized it as a Scam Page if there's an unsafe or dangerous activities inside the page. They pose as legitimate but intend to get your information or even hack your computer. For your protection, do not meddle with these sites.

 

You may also check if it is safe on our Global Site Safety page. As per checking, it is categorized as dangerous because the latest tests indicate that the URL contains malicious software or phishing.

 

Hope this helps.

@tm_rochelle Thanks for the info.

Just out of curiosity, does Trend scan the actual website to determine malicious code, or is the site added to a database maintained by TrendMicro?

The strange thing is that I was able to enter the site the day before and almost ordered something from it. But I had a question first, which got answered the day after, which co-inside with TrendMicro blocking the site. Would they have changed the website, knowing my interest in a product, or is that pure co-incidence?

Hi remucon,

 

The Trend Micro software scans the website with our pattern to see if it's malicious or not, we also have a database for website we already detected as unsafe.

 

For the website www.brondan.com, we would look closely into it and give you an update once we have fully analyze the website. 

 

Hope this helps!
