Neocities.org SCAM Sites

Why lots of scam and spam sites appear on neocities.org domain?

Recently while searching on google I clicked on a subdomain on neocities.org which redirected me to a scam site. It happened 3-4 times. I thought neocities was hosting only personal or hobby sites, but some spammers are using neocities’ sudomains to redirect to casino type site. Was that reason Bing removed all neocities subdomain from its search engine?

  1. Yeah.. since neocities.org is a free website hosting service like geocities it has lots of scam and spam sites hosted. all you need is to report those URLs or subdomains to their support. I suppose they’ll look into it and quickly takedown such sites. Moreover, neocities only allows personal sites not marketing or business sites.

  2. all subdomains from neocities.org are marked as suspicios/malware in my anti-virus. Thus it automatically blocks neocities.org domain. Glad I am safe. You never know you’ll brow a scam/phishing site on neocities or other such free platforms. Its a haven for spammers to plant scam sites or sneaky redirects.
