Is malwarebytes coming up with new website for mac?

[sansurface]

Hi,

I have come across a URL

 http://macmalwarebytes.com/

but it has no contents in it.

Can you plz tell whether the domain is owned by Malwarebytes? coz I doubt on it...

If it belongs to you, are you coming up with a new website for mac?

Hi @sansurface, our official Malwarebytes for Mac website is here: https://www.malwarebytes.com/mac/

Please let me know if I can assist with anything else.

Thanks,

Thanks for the report! I've passed this on to legal.

Note that the company that has registered this domain - PCVARK - is one of the worst PUP (potentially unwanted program) vendors in the Mac world. They have created a wide range of junk apps for the Mac, and even one that crosses the line to malware by mimicking legitimate macOS functionality to redirect the user to a scam website.

There can literally be no legitimate reason for that company to have registered that domain.

If GoDaddy doesn't act (and they may well), the UDRP process is fairly lightweight.
