Domain Due Diligence

Report for Modyolo.com

Report Date
October 8, 2025
Recommendation
Caution
Overall Summary
Suspicious
  Why we think so? 

Quick verdict: modyolo.com is a high-traffic site that hosts "mod APK" downloads. Technically it looks mature (valid SSL, Cloudflare CDN, Zoho mail, Google Analytics) and draws millions of visits monthly, but the site’s business model (distributing modified apps) brings legal and malware risks. Automated scanners and reputational tools mostly show no blacklist hits, yet user reports (including at least one allegation of large financial fraud) create a non-trivial concern. Recommendation: proceed with caution — avoid payment or sharing sensitive data and do not install APKs from the site without scanning in a sandbox.

Risk Insights

🛡️

High traffic, mixed safety signals

  • 13M+ monthly visits and a global rank ~2,800 — not a throwaway site.
  • No automated blacklist hits, but content type (mod APKs) carries inherent malware/legal risk.
  • At least one user complaint alleges significant financial loss — verify before trusting.

Contradictory Signals

Infrastructure and scanners suggest legitimacy, but the modding niche and an isolated user report of severe fraud create opposing trust signals.

Signal A: Strong technical setup and clean automated scans

Signal B: Content distribution model (mod APKs) and user fraud claim

Category Scores

Red Flags & Warnings

  • User-reported fraud claim (MyWOT) alleging a large monetary loss tied to this domain — a high-impact signal despite limited verification.
  • Primary content is modded APK downloads, which are legally grey and carry higher chance of embedded malware.
  • No public registrant contact email and only unusual phone numbers found on pages, reducing ability to verify or contact operators.
  • Site and content may infringe third‑party rights (no trademarks found and modding niche is often targeted by takedowns).

🔎 Detailed Checks & Analysis

WHOIS & domain age

Score: 70/100
Passed

"Creation timestamp corresponds to late 2021; absence of public registrant details is common with privacy services or Cloudflare-protected sites, so identity is partial rather than fully verifiable."

Reason: Domain was created in 2021 and uses a mainstream registrar (GoDaddy), but registrant contact is not publicly listed which reduces traceability.

Traffic & popularity

Score: 80/100
Passed

"SimilarWeb/SimilarTech report consistent multi-million monthly visits and low bounce/long time-on-site, which supports the site’s visibility and endurance."

Reason: High measured traffic (millions of monthly visits) and strong global rank indicate broad usage rather than a throwaway or brand-new scam site.

Blacklist / malware detection

Score: 60/100
Passed

"No matched threats were found in aggregated blacklist checks, yet hosting modded APKs creates an elevated risk that static web scanners may not catch until files are executed or analyzed."

Reason: Automated scanners (Google Safe Browsing, crypto-scam sniffer) show no matches, but threat absence is not proof of safety for downloadable binaries.

Contact transparency

Score: 30/100
Failed

"Scraper output returned phone numbers in page-level content and social links but no business email or postal address, so follow-up or dispute resolution paths are limited."

Reason: No public contact email found and only nonstandard phone strings and social profiles are present, making operator verification difficult.

Content legality & safety

Score: 35/100
Failed

"Even well-trafficked mod APK sites can host trojanized files; absence of blacklist flags reduces immediacy but does not eliminate file-based risk to end users."

Reason: Site distributes modded APKs — a category associated with copyright risk and higher chance of malware distribution, even when the site itself isn't blacklisted.

Your Next Steps

  • 1

    Do not make payments or provide financial details to this site; reported user claims of large monetary loss are unverified but serious.

  • 2

    Avoid downloading APKs from modyolo.com on your primary device; if you test files, use an isolated sandbox or VM and scan with multiple up-to-date antivirus engines.

  • 3

    If you need an app, prefer official app stores (Google Play, Samsung Galaxy Store) or publisher‑provided APKs signed by the original developer.

  • 4

    Report any suspected fraud to your bank and local authorities if you experience financial loss; preserve timestamps, transaction IDs, and site screenshots.

  • 5

    Search community forums (Reddit, X) for recent user reports before engaging; user feedback often surfaces issues not seen by automated tools.
