Is u.gy safe?

Use caution with u.gy. Its current Gridinsoft trust score is 1/100; review the site-specific findings below before use.

Why is u.gy marked "Suspicious Website"?

Gridinsoft's current assessment of u.gy is based on phishing indicators and external redirect behavior. Context considered alongside those findings includes a short domain history (52 days old) and limited public traffic history. The listed status means the domain currently appears in Gridinsoft's own Threat List; it is not a consensus of external providers. 4 of 25 publicly displayed security sources report a warning. A separate license-restricted partner security signal also contributes to the automated assessment; its provider name and verdict cannot be displayed publicly under the source license.
