## Full analysis


### Security Alert

Kaspersky, Sophos flagged this site in external intelligence checks, indicating elevated compromise/scam exposure that requires immediate caution.

This website is the corporate online presence of Formula Prato, an Italian manufacturer and seller of synthetic grass and related turf solutions for landscaping, playgrounds, and sports surfaces. It presents product collections, sustainability-related claims, company information, contact facilities, and channels for product enquiries, projects, and reseller engagement.


### Scam/Impersonation Risk

The site’s visible content presents a coherent corporate-manufacturer profile, with no page-level red flags, detected brand impersonation, login form, or sensitive credential collection. However, this benign presentation is materially contradicted by confirmed external blacklist status and malicious detections: seven evaluated detections were recorded, including signals from Kaspersky and Sophos. These are direct reputation indicators affecting the domain itself and support a high-risk assessment for sensitive interaction; the available evidence does not independently verify that the published corporate identity is the operator behind the domain.


Evidence:
- The homepage presents Formula Prato as a synthetic-grass manufacturer with product collections and landscaping, playground, and sports applications.
- External reputation assessment recorded the domain as blacklisted, with 7 malicious detections and Tier-1 detections from Kaspersky and Sophos.
- The domain was registered on 2007-01-31 and is approximately 19.57 years old.
- Web-archive records span 2015-02-12 to 2026-03-11, covering 12 years of tracked history.

### Regulatory Verification Notes

The legal and contact content provides a specific commercial identity, address, telephone details, and contact facilities, and the registration record lists Olga Massari and MAZZONI MASSIMO Srl through Register S.p.a. These details are useful identity indicators but do not independently establish that the site is operated by, or authorized by, that entity; identity verification remains unconfirmed. The site does not claim a regulatory license or provide a license number in the supplied content. For a synthetic-turf manufacturer this may not be inherently problematic, but it remains a disclosure point to resolve before entering a material commercial relationship. The absence of a broker-dataset match provides no licensing or regulatory conclusion.


Evidence:
- The contact and corporate-information content identifies Formula Prato and supplies address, telephone, and email contact details.
- The domain registration record lists registrar Register S.p.a., registrant Olga Massari, and organization MAZZONI MASSIMO Srl.
- The site’s transport encryption uses a DV certificate issued by Sectigo Public Server Authentication CA DV R36, valid through 2027-03-19.
- The site is served by COMBELL-AS – Combell NV, BE, on AS34762.

### What to Verify Next

Before any payment, order commitment, or transfer of commercially sensitive information, the stated company name and registration details should be confirmed through the relevant Italian corporate registry and independently obtained contact information. The site’s terms, privacy, returns, warranty, delivery, and reseller conditions should also be reviewed, with bank or payment-provider protections used where available. Any contact route used for a transaction should be confirmed through an independent channel rather than relying solely on the website.


Evidence:
- The site provides product-enquiry and reseller/contact channels rather than a documented license-verification facility.
- The homepage contains one contact/newsletter form and no sensitive form, so commercial identity and fulfilment controls require separate confirmation.
- The supplied analysis records successful technical collection across 2 runs, while external reputation indicators remain adverse.

### Summary Verdict

The overall posture is critical, with a confirmed contradiction between the site’s professional corporate presentation and adverse external threat intelligence. The website’s apparent business purpose is plausible, but legitimacy and operator identity are not sufficiently established for sensitive interaction.


### Infrastructure Integrity

The site resolves directly to infrastructure operated by Combell NV, with no detected CDN or WAF layer and a single likely origin address. The identified hosting arrangement and valid Sectigo DV certificate provide basic technical continuity and encrypted transport, but they are mitigating infrastructure characteristics only and do not offset the domain-level reputation risk.


### Closing Assessment

Prospective users should limit activity to passive review and refrain from login, credential submission, or financial transactions until the operator, commercial terms, and payment protections have been independently confirmed.

## About this assessment


A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about formulaprato.it at assessment time. It is a starting point for your own judgement, not a guarantee: a high score means the signals were consistent with a legitimately operated site, a low or critical score means several risk patterns were present.

TrustSniffer assesses a website from the evidence it can collect at a point in time: domain registration and age, hosting and certificate, the content the site served, and third-party reputation feeds. A score is a summary of that evidence, not a guarantee and not a legal finding. There is no human rating and no user review in it. A site can change after it is assessed.
