Description of maxmcnownphilanthropy.com
The domain maxmcnownphilanthropy.com appears to present itself as a philanthropy- or charity-related website based on its name, which combines a personal name with the word "philanthropy." However, the visible homepage at the time of this scan does not show an active nonprofit website, donation portal, or organizational information. Instead, it displays a basic server-generated directory listing labeled "Index of /" with folders such as cgi-bin, doc, and files.
Based on the available page content, the site may be an undeveloped, misconfigured, or intentionally minimal web host rather than a functioning public-facing philanthropy platform. No clear operator identity, mission statement, contact details, or legitimate organizational branding were visible in the screenshot, so the claimed purpose and ownership could not be independently verified from the homepage alone.
Safety Assessment for maxmcnownphilanthropy.com
This domain shows multiple risk indicators at the time of this scan. It was categorized by several web-classification providers as phishing or fraud-related, and 11 out of 92 security engines flagged it. That level of multi-engine agreement is a stronger warning sign than a single heuristic alert, particularly when the classifications are broadly consistent around phishing-related activity.
The site also has a very recent registration age of about 89 days, no measurable popularity ranking, and a homepage that exposes a directory index rather than a normal organizational website. Those traits do not prove abuse by themselves, but they are commonly associated with low-trust or temporary infrastructure. A separate malware scan also reported suspicious findings in exposed files and references, although some of those detections appear heuristic and lower confidence than the broader phishing classifications.
At the same time, major blacklist checks included in the scan were clean at that moment, which suggests the domain may not yet have been widely blocklisted everywhere. Even so, based on the combination of multi-engine phishing detections, suspicious file exposure, and the lack of credible site content, this website may pose potential risks to visitors.
Technical Description
The site was reachable over HTTPS with a valid Let's Encrypt certificate that was set to expire in July 2026. It resolves to IP address 163.61.188.7, uses a LiteSpeed web server, and appears to be hosted in Staten Island, United States. DNSSEC was not enabled, as the domain is unsigned. The domain is registered through Dynadot and uses lytehosting.com nameservers.
A notable technical concern is that the homepage exposes an open directory listing ("Index of /") with accessible folders including cgi-bin, doc, and files. Public directory indexing can reveal internal structure, logs, scripts, or staged content that would normally not be intended for casual visitors. The scan also referenced suspicious paths and external IPFS-related resources, which may indicate hosted documents or content delivery mechanisms that warrant caution.
