Questions about api-dev.googlemetricks.com
- Is api-dev.googlemetricks.com safe?
- No. MalwareAnalyzer scanned api-dev.googlemetricks.com on 19 Aug 2026 and returned a suspicious verdict with a score of 33 out of 100, categorised as phishing. Treat it as hostile until it is re-checked.
- How was api-dev.googlemetricks.com checked?
- A static pass resolved DNS, captured TLS and headers and followed the redirect chain, and where the standard tier allows, a headless browser rendered the page and recorded every request. Egress is SSRF-locked. Signatures that matched only page text are weighted far below one that matched a served file, because a page documenting malware matches the same rules.
