AI Security Verdict

Moderate Risk

Confidence: 88%

5
Risk Score

This disposable or newly registered address only forwards visitors to a well-known site, a common way to hide a scam from security scanners — rated moderate risk on that basis.

Risk Factors (2)
Entry hostname linkauth-whatsapp.com combines a 'WhatsApp'-referencing string with 'linkauth' while redirecting to an unrelated third party — a pattern typical of expired/recycled or abused domains used as redirectors.
Entry domain carries a single-source unverified community 'known attacker' report (outbound-abuse reputation, not content evidence).
Safety Factors (2)
Final destination is the brand owner's own long-established domain (de.yahoo.com, ranked in the top 1M).
Third-party scripts are all top-1M popular hosts; cross-origin requests are standard analytics/advertising traffic.
