Why is upgrader.best marked "Suspicious Website"?

Gridinsoft's current assessment of upgrader.best is based on phishing indicators, unverified social-link signals, and automated caution checks. Context considered alongside those findings includes a short domain history (5 months old).

Upgrader.best is affiliated with the Russian Federation, a nation that initiated a military attack, thus committing a crime against humanity in the form of war against Ukraine for the past 3 years. Our company, Gridinsoft, is based in Ukraine.

The ongoing war has resulted in tragic losses, with our children, parents, and friends facing daily hardships due to the deliberate actions of the Russian military. Homes are being destroyed, and millions of our fellow citizens have been forced to leave their residences.
