theskyquaddrone[.]com — a confirmed scam!
When checked with ScamAdviser, theskyquaddrone[.]com achieves a poor Trustscore of 55 out of 100!
During its analysis of a website, ScamAdviser checks 40 different data points such as server location, malware reports, and website ratings to determine if a site is a scam or not. Unfortunately for theskyquaddrone[.]com, it was not able to fool ScamAdviser — the scam website fell short in a couple of key areas: the site’s owner is hiding his or her identity and the website was only registered very recently. These are two big signs that a website isn’t to be trusted.
